MAKING CHANGES

that is good veronica. i have been doing well since i got this fill. i have lost 10lbs since the 17th of last month. i still feel tight some but, im scared to get any out as i know i will gain. keep up the good work.

I forgot to check in last week. I lost 1 lb. I do my official weigh ins on Fridays. It looks like I may have 3 lbs. to report tomorrow... if I drop .2 lbs. I'm glad I'm finally hitting my stride. I'm sure I'll plateau for a bit soon, but hopefully I'll keep on working through it.

China and Veronisca, congrats!1 i gained 1# last week..:thumbup:. Oh dear, re-discovered ice cream... It is out of the house, again.

its ok as we all have been there. the important thing i keep reminding my self is that i didnt take a minute to put this weight on it wont take a minute to get it off. im still working on trying to be patient.:drool:

Thanks China and Sue. This sure is a roller coaster of a process, isn't it? I did make the 3 lb. loss this week. Five more pounds to go and I'll be at the halfway mark! I guess that's my goal for July... to hit the halfway mark.

yes honey it is. i myself try and keep my goal low so i dont get wacked out if i dont make the goal. i got a fill and it is working for me but, i might have alittle much in. but, im gonna work with it. as i gained last time i had some removed. but, it is getting better. some days it is tighter than others.

and i have a question for pete can you tell me how many calories you eat a day. and a exsample of your menu for the day.

I weighed in at 218.4 this am. It was a good week for me. That was about 3 lbs I think- I will have to check my chart again.

I have already lost my 5 for the month, so I changed my monthly goal to 10 lbs. Here's hoping...

I was pretty tight after my last fill, but it is much better now. I suffered for about 2 weeks, then it gradually got better. I am feeling looser now though, but afraid to get another fill. I hate being too tight. I would rather fight to control what I eat that PB all morning and hope the afternoon and night stuff goes down better.

Great job everyone- keep it up!

I had my first official weight gain of 3#'s at the doctors office. I haven't done very good at all. I got a .5cc fill and I think I am about to my sweet spot. I rediscovered mashed potatos and it got me a lecture at the doctors office. I think I was rebelling a little because I miss eating some foods. I am afraid I am going to be a little to tight but I am going to hang in there until it loosens up a little. I don't want any taken out because I am afraid of a gain. Hope everyone has a great week.

hang in there

Thank you China, I have exercised everyday of this week so far and am looking for a weight loss next time.

Denal8, you can do it!!

Keep on trying!!

Me, i lost the 1# I gained last week; it's better than another gain! At 235 # today.

I appriciate all the support. I have been eating good and riding my bike every day for 30 minutes and I think I will have a loss of atleast 2-3 pounds. I am addicted to the scale and weigh everyday. I need to only weigh once a week but i worry I am not doing enough. It will all tell when I go back to the doctor on 8-25. My goal then is to have lost at least 10 pounds if not more. Wich me luck on my goal and Sue in Ne I wish you luck on your goals.

i wish you luck you can do it. i went to see he dietions and im down 5.2 more lbs. so that puts me at 15lbs lost in a month as of today. so im trying to loose 20 more my sepember when i go to the bahamas. so i have to stick to the plan and not slack off. so the fill is still tight but its workable now. im not pbing every day like before so im very glad i got the fill.

Bahamas sounds fun. Good luck on your goal.:cursing:

I was 217 last Tuesday, and haven't lost a lick since. I felt a plateau coming on, but didn't get a fill at doc last time. I am getting more hungry every day, and now I wish I had gotton that fill... It is hard to control portions when 1 1/2 cups of food per setting doesn't last more than 2 hours! I am broke and running out of protein. Everything left in my cupboard is starch. No protein shakes, not even milk to make my own. I hate this part:(
