Friday Weigh-in



Recommended Posts

Dear All:

Another pound down - that doen't count all the up & down I've been doing since 2/2/09. So I'm only 1 pound down for the month! :o

My doctor is on vacation so I can't get a fill until March 12. I've been writing my food down and counting calories. I have to say it's easier with the band:redface:.

I'm going to really stick to this (counting calories 1100-1200/day) and exercising 30# per day (sorry guys, can't do more than that!) and see where that brings me on March 12.

Keep up all the good work everyone.:wink:

Hey March 12th will be here before you know it! I can't wait for my fill on Friday. We really can't afford it, but I can't afford to lose momentem.

Let us know how it goes.

I am at 199.8 lol. ONEderland! Feels wonderful. However, I am really trying not to lose anything for the health of my little one. I do believe it is important for me to continue to exercise as I hear it helps with labor and with the back pain. How is everyone else doing?

I'm a little late. Had out of town guests and a dinner party over the weekend. I've been holding steady - no weight lost - looking forward to March 12 when I go for my fill.

Went for my 3rd fill yesterday & got 1 cc. My sister went with me and she got her first fill (2 ccs). Anyway, our doctor (Dr. David Davtayn - he's great) gave us both a little lecture on our eating -- mainly reviewing what we know, but so encouraging too. He chided me for not coming earlier for a fill - saying that when I stop losing, I should come in immediately!:thumbup:

I haven't lost any weight yet, but my sister and I had measured before we were banded. In all (neck, arm, chest, waist, thigh & calf) I've lost 14" since October 24. That's amazing - over a foot!!!!!!:thumbup: My sister, banded in December, lost 13":thumbup:

I was thrilled! Also, my daughter-in-law told me last night to throw away the pants I was wearing (or she suggested I could sleep in them:tongue2:). She observed that they were so baggy on me that maybe I could keep them for my before/after pictures!

So I continue on my journey. I hope to post lower numbers next week - although I have my daugher, her husband & 2 grandchildren staying with us this week. And next week my husband's cousin & wife are coming and we're going to Vegas for a few days. But it encourages me that I can live my life with the band -- in prior times I probably would have gained a few pounds. Now I know that I will lose a couple.:blushing:

Good luck to you all - Keep up the good work!

Make sure you get calories in you system in the morning to jump start your metabolism. Keep exercising and maybe kick start into a low carb cycle to help kick cravings and concentrate on solid Protein. Nothing soft. Those are my suggestions. A plateau for a month would be really tough. I can't imagine even though I know my time will come.

I am very nervous to weigh in Saturday morning since I have been out of town this week until late tomorrow night. I'm afraid of what the scale will say. So far I have only strayed once and that was eating a few chips and salsa last night before supper, but I ordered fillet migion so I was pretty good. I can't wait to get home and get back to my routine. I am not OCD....maybe just a little anal retentive. I need my routine. I've been doing good since October. This is the trip every year that usually derails my weight loss attempt. This one and one in April. When I left on Tuesday morning I was only 6.5# away from ONEderland.

I'm so nervous......:tt2:

I was out of town until last night. I am happy to report that even with eating out I am down 2.4 from last Friday. That gives me a weight of 204.6!!!

I hope to hit ONEderland by April 1st!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
