I weigh in weekly and plan on posting here to keep me focused. If anybody else wants to post their losses on fridays with me feel free. I figure the more the merrier and we can cheer each other on as we start climbing back down the scale! Personally I find Fridays help keep me focused over the weekends.

Hey Guys, DB, here! I'm back down to 207 this wk. so that's a 2 pd. loss. Someone mentioned about their cloths getting looser, well that's what is happening to me. I'm not losing very much but I can tell it in my cloths. I have my 1st fill on the 19th and I'm going to ask the Dr. about that.

231.4 today

273 today stayed the same as last week

Its really interesting to see that since we are all getting to the "mushies" or normal food stage - and we haven't been filled to restriction, that our weightloss has slowed and we are now either having a little gain or only a smallish loss each week. It is important to remember that this is ONLY the beginning and that this is NORMAL for the band process. Hang in there everyone and keep your eye on the END GOAL! WE WILL GET THERE!!!

Am just waiting to see if a few more people post their friday weights and then will upload the spreadsheet! Hope everyone's having a good weekend! xx

Congrats to all!! Thanks again Ling for doing this and for your pep talks. You Rock Babe!

OOh, have discovered new exciting way to measure weightloss!!!

Total weight lost divided by total amount wanted to lose = % of the way there we are!

Eg. Mine is I wanna lose 144lb and I have lost 24.7lb so far so I am 17.1% of the way there!!!

Isnt that a cool way to look at it!!

have added to spreadsheet Yeeehaa!

Congrats WannaB!!! Great weight loss...especially as we're all entering Bandster Hell!

LingLing- Can't wait to see the new %...that will be too cool to see what % we are toward our goal...very motivating! You ROCK!

FRIDAY WEIGH IN

15 MAY 2009

********************

Its accountability time bunnies!!!

I weighed into today at 126.9kg. Up 700g from last week. I need a fill and I need to realise that I am in charge of the type of food that goes in my mouth and that I still need to make an effort and eat properly and healthily.

Can't wait to see how you have all done this week!!

Good luck - and (advice to self also) remember if the scales have moved in the wrong direction - this is just ONE week, and it is a long journey. The road is long but we WILL get there. Stick at it.

xx

214.5 today.

Happy, happy, happy with a .5 lb. loss.:tt1: I'm just glad it wasn't a gain as I started real foods this week. Bandster Hell is here! No fill until June

No change for me I guess the bright side is no gain for me. :tt1:

I hope I lose something before my fill on Tuesday. I think I need to start looking into slider foods to make sure that I'm not consuming those.
