Yeah, I'm down another pound. Finally after only losing 3 pounds in the last two months I'm down another pound! I hand a fill earlier this week and I thinking this fill is finally the one. So I'm crossing every thing that I can cross and praying that this fill is the ever elusive sweet spot.

I'm so happy that this fill is finally working. I can't believe how great it is to know restriction like this!!!I hardly feel any hunger. Yeah me, down another pound. After almost losing all hope over the last 2 months, I just want to shout from the roof tops, I LOVE my band. I can now see the light at the end of tunnel.

Just changing my start weight to it reflects where I was at the beginning of the challenge instead of when I joined a few days ago.

Thanks for the encouragement. I need to start new tomorrow. Nothing lost in almost 2 weeks now. :) Hopefully it'll change soon...not going to reach my April Fools goal, but I still have time for the 4th of July goal!

greetings everyone,

how are you all doing? I'm on a good pace down 6 pounds to 334 and I get my second fill next week. That should help me increase my weight loss but I'll take what I've done so far as I move toward breaking the 300 mark. I can't wait!!!

Is there anything I can do for you to help you stay focused?

Been a while since I've been online because of work, but I'm here for you all. Stay focued, keep exercising, eating Protein and we'll all get there. There are alot of people doing this challenge, something like 68 including myself and if we all lose the weight we set for ourselves we could be losing as a total a couple of tons of fat. That's alot of fat and no worries about gaining it back.....:)

Wow Barb you are so close! Congrats! Is it getting harder the closer you get? I find now that I stall for a couple weeks then have a big loss before I was losing every week almost. I'm getting close too (not as close as you but after where I came from it feels close) and am so anxious to hit it. Never did I think it possible all those years I was so heavy. I love my band!

I've lost 10 more lbs this month. Starting, oh wow, tommorow I start the last 13 weeks training for my triathalon. I start to do two a day work outs, so I'm should be taking off more weight too. I haven't updated my ticker. I forgot my pin, so I have to create a new one.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
