Hi all,

I'm starting this thread a day early because I'm going on retreat this weekend and I wanted to weigh in...

Last week 204

This week 204

Numbers are deceiving things - this is actually the end of a long week of catch up after I went hog wild on sweets the first part of the week. Man, I just cannot handle sugar! I went up three pounds, then got TOM, and back now to where I started. Roller coaster of a week, for sure.

I was banded on 9/26 and this morning weigh in was 234! Down 21 lbs so far!

I'm down to 163.

Could have been more but I had 2 donuts

It's been a banner week for me 7.5 lbs lost.

10-10-08: 248

10-17-08: 240.5

This has been my best week so far. Last week, I only lost 1 pound, but I worked out hard all week. I think that I was adding more muscle mass last week which slowed the weight loss. Even though I didn't drop pounds that week, my body fat dropped 1%.

Last week: 196.3

This week: 196

Wkly loss: 3 ounces!

Yep! That's THREE OUNCES! LOL!! Before surgery, that would have ticked me off. I had a rough week though and I know what I did wrong. One was the chips that I posted about earlier in the week. More often that not this week I was rushed for lunches and dinners and was eating WAY too fast and WAY too much and getting over-stuffed. My goal this week is to slow it down. If it looks like I'm going to be rushed, then maybe just eat some Peanut Butter and have a meal later when I can go slower. Another thing that kept happening was I would be STARVING and then being rushed... it was a bad combination. I also feel bloated. Yuck! Oh and NO exercise this week either. So, I know what I need to do differently and I'm going to work on that this week.

I'll take the 3 ounces though! It marks a total of 40lbs since I started this process with the classes in March! I also had to drag out some smaller bras from my drawer (from a 42 to 38!) and I'm wearing smaller shorts that I haven't worn in almost 5 years! Very exciting!

Have a beautiful day everyone!!

I am down 1 pound this week. I'll take it!

I want the scale to move like the rest of you. It's been a slow journey for me. I go get me second fill next Tuesday.

btw, I have a 10cc band that they put in 5.2cc in at surgery, my first fill they put in another 1cc so, I now have 6.2cc in my 10cc band. That seems like alot at the beginning after a first fill? I still have no restriction? I wonder if it depends on the size of your stomach at the time of surgery on how much they put in? any ideas?

oct 18= 370

Down 3 lbs this week after my 2nd fill! Woo Hoo!

Last week 240

this week 236.5

-3.5lbs

I had an appt for a fill on Friday 10/17 but I had lost 12lbs in 4weeks so we decided to hold off. I hope that wasn't a mistake.

I am up 2 pounds this week. I spent the week in Reno for a tax conference and spent a lot of time sitting on my rear and eating catered food. The late nights partying probably didn't help too much either. I am so glad I have a fill tomorrow morning.

Congratulations to everyone for some great losses!

I just realized I posted this week's weight loss on last week's thread.

Anyway, which ever thread you read, I am now down a half a pound this week for a total of 32 pounds.
