WOW... It is so hard to believe that this month we will all reach our 2yr mark... I think this will be a great time for all of us to give an update and reflect on the past 2 years..

I think we have all done wonderfully... And i am so happy i was able to share this journey with all of you wonderful ladies... We are all such beautiful inside and out, but i think that some of us are coming to see that about ourselves and growing more confident as we progress.

Thank you all for your wonderful support and great stories... I'm pretty sure we all are proud ourselves. I know im proud of all of you!!!

So lets make the next year the best one yet and work even harder to shed off those last few stubborn pounds till our goals!!!

Good Morning Marchies!!!

Just checking in to read everyone's updates!

I am feeling a little discouraged! These last 20lbs have been the hardest to lose, but I am determined to get back on track and start losing again! You guys give me the motivation I need! :eek:

Have a productive, high Protein, lots of exercise, lots of Water, fat burning, weight loss week!!! :thumbup:

Hi all, home today still recouping. But feeling so much better now that I'm eating regular again. Even my cravings for junk food has stopped.

Tammyj, when I get off track that is when I try most to sticking to portion control. One of the best things to have in your kitchen arsenal is a food scale. It doesn't have to be an expensive one. Measure your food before eating and this will help keep you in control. Sign up to one of those diet site which should tell you how much Protein, fats, carbs you should be consuming for the weight you want. I myself joined Sparkpeople and others here may let you know where they've joined. Give it a try.

Who else can give some other sites they may have joined? Don't give up hope. That've why were here.

I didn't meet my weight goal for my Bandniversary, which was March 27. So, onto meeting my ideal weight of 175lbs. Hoping this will take me off or lower my medications. And lower my blood pressure a lot.

Positive results this week to us all.

I just got back from Las Vegas to Celebrate finishing my MBA.

YEAH!

Now I'm getting all my Ps and Qs in order for surger a week from today.

These are busy times, but very good indeed.

Jeni,

I am looking at your pics in your signature...you have come a long way in such a short amount of time! You look really really good and I am glad to hear you are feeling like yourself again! :thumbup:

Juli,

Conratulations on getting your MBA!!!! :biggrin:

Whitepants,

Thanks for the tips! I've used both FitDay and Sparkpeople before. My problem is not knowing what to do it's just finding the motivation to get off my butt and do it. I am working out again and following the lapband dietician's meal plans...I just need to stick to it. I am going on a cruise in 3 weeks so that's giving me a little boost...I need to get into my white bell bottom jeans again!
