Summer Weightloss Challenge



Recommended Posts

Stayed at 189 this week, but I'm happy with that considering I got my monthly visitor this week. My daughter had surgery on her knee, another daughter had a doctor appointment for ear problems and our air conditioner broke--I live in Henderson NV (Vegas) and we've been over 115 for nearly two weeks now, so I'm pleased that there was no gain in spite of my busy schedule.

Back to working out and journaling again so should see results next week! Hopefully!?! Congratulations to the rest of you, you're doing great!!!!

Thanks to having what I think is the flu this past week, I'm down to 226.5!!! I've been taking basically clear liquids/yogurts, just until this throat stops hurting so much. I haven't been 2-twenty anything for a very long time! I love my band!!

Congrats to everyone on their fabulous work!

Oh i cant WAIT until im down in the 220's way to go Christina :D plus your so close to ONEDERLAND it must be very encouraging!! thats one of my big goals is to get out of the 200's. way to go again...but im sorry it happened mostly because of the flu: knock on wood i havent had the flu in about 2-3 years :)

I weighed 227 this morning, up .5 from last week.. Not too bad, now that I'm feeling better and eating "normal" again. I expected it to go up more.. I finally stepped back into working out this morning. Gotta love an empty fitness center at work :) Next week will be a loss I can feel it!

~Heather~ Thank you for your support! My first BIG goal is to 200 then of course to Onederland! It's so close. *fingers crossed* you don't become sick for another 2-3 years!

Happy Monday!!

Decided to weigh today since I had a doctor's appointment this morning and I knew they'd weigh me anyways. I've been stuck on the same pound or two for a while now. When I weighed last Thursday, I was still the same weight so I started the Dr. Fox's plateau buster that Donali posted on one of the threads. I've lost 3 lbs. in 4 days!!!!

So, now that I've made the move to Mondays, I'll report on Mondays instead of Thursdays from here on out!! Yeah 3 lbs.--186 and counting!!!! :laugh

You'll get there Trish! I remember well when I was 312# I never thought I'd see under 200 again in my life.

BTW, I lost over 100 of that while UNBANDED which has helped me tremendously to think of this band as extra help in my weightloss journey. It makes it easier--but it still doesn't do the job if I'm not working REALLY hard at it. I could lose weight without the band--what I can NOT lose it without is exercise--AND the emotional support of other people. THe sharing on this forum is priceless.

I gained 3 pounds. I am on the verge of tears. I'm tight, I'm restricted. I'm gaining weight. It doesn't seem fair on any level.

I know that the scale is a deceiver. I know it lies. I fit into a size 18 pair of pants and a 1X shirt, but that doesn't mean I am feeling good about myself.

Stupid scale. stupid depo drevera.

I am down 3lbs to 264 this week. Just got another fill today, hopefully this one will do the trick. I've become too comfortable with my exercise routine, so I need to take it up a notch. We'll see how I do this week.

Sweet Lady, are you exercising? b/c if you are, you could be gaining muscle. A size 18 / 1X is AWSOME!!!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
