Zero change for the past six weeks, so that's not good. On the other hand, that is exactly the point where it got too cold to ride my bike to work anymore (18 miles round trip daily) so its not like I'm shocked that when the biking stopped the weight loss "coincidentally" stopped too. Feeling OK about at least holding steady, but will have to find something to replace the exercise until May. My BMI is down to 29.1, so I'm feeling pretty healthy in a size 12.

Hi All, I am still plugging away. I just had to realize I am losing normally, now- about 1-2 # per week. I have plateaus, too. Have lost 100# since admitting I needed Surgery, and 70# since Surgery. Bad news is I have 70 more to go. I am walking ion indoor routes at work and at the gym. i may try volks-walking or something. ( No running) I hit 219 # yesterday!

hi everyone glad to see we are still hanging in there. well things for me are so-so. but, im hanging in there. i got so busy that im not excerising these days but, working on getting back there. i still feel i should lost more but, im ok with what i have lost so far. i will do better. well hang in there and see everyone at the finish line

Hi ALL, Still at 219 But that is better than 320!!!I lost a few # at once so it will be a while before I lose more. That's OK.

Hi ALL, Am at 219, still. That's OK. I am upping my fitness routine for a while. It may be a year but it ain't over yet!!

Hi Am at 219 # at the moment. nhave had problems with my gal bladder and it comes out on the 22nd. Hopefully that will make the weight loss easier A the moment, I think 215 # would be a resonable fogoal for Dec.

Hello Everyone, I haven't posted in a long while and I have had some great success. I have lost 31 pounds since my last post and a total of 73.2 pounds since my surgery. My anniversary of my band is next Wednesday and I am hoping to be at 75 pounds total loss. I will try and keep up with my posting. I go back to the Doctor on January 26th and hope to be 10 more pounds lighter. I am exercising more and that helps a lot. My goal for January is 10 pounds.

Happy Bandaversary everyone!!!

Hi All,

215 for Dec may have been reasonable but this gall bladder thing is a real pain ( literally) I can eat mashed potatoes and yogurt. Anything else causes problems. Am about 222# at the moment. I haven't felt like exercising,or walking. Surgery is Tuesday, hopefully I can get back on track.
