hi all well i went to the wlc today and im down another 3lbs. i guess im ok with it. as i thought i would have lost more. i did learn that me only eating 2 meal and no snacks is not good that i slows your weighloss down. so im gonna have to change that and do some thing else.

we im proud of you all we are getting there.:blush: keep up the good work.

lost another 3 pounds last week. really have been working hard at keeping that scale moving. power walks in the morning have greatly helped my matabolism I think :blush:

Maybe it's just the point in this process where the other tools have to work, too. I'm on prednisone again, and have gained 2 # since last Friday !at 242#:smile:

Another week and another pound. Not much of a weight loss this week but still continued weight loss. Don't be discouraged Sue. Just take a look at what you have done and see where you can make changes. Eating different foods. Drinking more water and less flavored drinks. Slight changes in your exercise routine. All these I have noticed do affect weight loss. So now it's time to start on June's weight loss!

its another new month everyone and that means time to set a new goal. i hope everyone is excited as i am. its been a long walk and we are doing so good. we should be proud.

hope everyone continues to and all new people are welcome. so get your weightloss goal for the month in.

and lets get moving. see everyone at the finish line:biggrin::(

I was too tight at my last fill (lost 10 lbs in 10 days...)and had to get an unfill. They found more fluid then should have been in there, and took out too much. Now I have NO RESTRICTION and have gained back two pounds. Still setting at 228.

My goal is 8 lbs, though I can't get a fill till the end of the month, and I am starving, so I don't see how I am going to achieve ANY weight loss at this point. Sorry to be a poo poo. Just pissed.

Hi All, I dropped to 240 in May ( 4#) and am still in this for June Hope to lose a few more !!!

Am only temporarily tight after a fill , then it gets loose.

Slow start to June for me. Just 1 pound this week but that's ok cause it's still a loss.

yes its a very slow start in june i didn't loose any thing this week. i need a fill im gone see if i can get one next week. i dont really have any thing in there 2.4cc i need more than that.

I've noticed a big slow down in my weight loss in the last 2 months. It is still going in the right direction, but I got spoiled with the first 5 months of weight loss.

I'm at 246 with a goal of 242 for June. That would be 4 lbs.

Hello everyone. I was banded on 12/2/2008 and Im doing great. Im down from 264 to 204 and loving it. You will go thru some ups and downs but just take day by day and be happy and BLESSED. I've started my weight loss journey blog page and would love for some of you to join and talk with me about your band and everyday life.

OOOPS., hit the key too often!

It's four months later and I'm finally back and down one pound. It's only one pound, but it signifies my moving in the right direction again. I've been taking a doctor-recommended hiatus from concentrating on the weight loss -no more fills :thumbdown: - to concentrate on trauma therapy that I started in December. It's hard to post that, but I wanted to share that the benefits are proving to be phenomenal. I'm not a therapy-type person and only started going per the surgeon's requirement, but how incredibly "freeing" I'm finding it to work past issues that I had no idea were weighing me down. Yes... literally! Hopefully, I'll have more lost pounds to post again soon.

Another week and I am down 3 lbs. Right where I want to be. Set a go for the next 6 months of 75 lbs so I need to average just under 3 lbs a week so this is a great start to that goal :thumbdown:
