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.

Go for it -- it is great to have tools that help us achieve our goals. I have yo-yo'd for years, and i am about to venture into territory I have not been in for over 5 years...

cool... after my first fill past Wed, i am now down a few pounds .. 253 today .. bloody magic ..

286---- still can't believe I share this number. I think my Driver's License says 220 or even 200

LOL - mine says 150!!!

I am weighing in at 199. :eek: Go April bandster!

:smile: ONEderland!!! Congrats!!! I can not weight, to join you:tongue_smilie:

Can I join too. My highest weight before doing the pre op is 231 lbs. The day of the surgery 209l lbs. As of last Friday 199 lbs.

i had my first appointment with my dr today. i am down 16 lbs since i was banded 4/7. The dr feels i'm doing great and did not do a fill today. i go see him again in July and he will decide then if i need the first fill then. i'm so very excited - i haven't weighed on fridays yet but now i can set my scale to match the dr's office and will begin the weekly weigh ins. Hope you all have a safe and happy Memorial Day!! :crying:

FRIDAY WEIGH IN

29th MAY 2009

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

Hi Guys

I weighed in today at 125.7kg.

Hitting the 125 barrier was amazing for me, I didn't realise I was looking forward to it so much.

Look forward to hearing all about your week and what your weight is looking like this friday!!!

GOOD LUCK xx

Okay, well I just had my first fill and I weighed at the doctors office, so I don't really want to weigh again tomorrow. So...I am back under 200! 199.2!!:thumbup:

Let's hope it keeps going down. Got 1.5mL's in my band. I have to say I feel a little weird, but I think it's because I'm nervous. I don't like to feel nauseated and he said it was one of the signs that it was too tight. Also, he is leaving on a long vacation on Saturday, so if there is a problem with the fill, I have to go back tomorrow or end up seeing someone else...

I'm a nervous nelly anyway...

Good luck to everyone! I can't wait to see the posts!

My doc says that if you start to feel a tickle in the back of your throat when they are filling you that they ease off a bit from there and its perfect. odd huh.

Great work on ONDERELAND!! xxx

210 for me today. I SO happy with a 1.5 lb. loss!

My band has magic powers, I swear. I have 0 fill still and can eat anything and have (with no extra chewing). I went up 2 lbs. after Memorial weekend and eating/drinking too much, so I was hoping just to stay the same this week while in Bandster Hell. I haven't really been watching super closely the rest of this week, but lo and behold the scale went down! It's magic, I swear...I got on and off the scale 3 times because I couldn't believe it. Can't wait for my first fill next week!

I'm at 262 this Friday.....

266.8 For me today, I have had only 1 fill since

Feburary, and that was in April , not sure yet if I need another one.

I'm at 267lbs today. Woo hoo! I hit the 60lb loss mark! (BTW: I had lost 32lbs before surgery)

Congrats everyone so far!

:smile: Kaner

I am 198.8 lbs. Only 0.2 lb lost. I already one 1 fill but I can still eat anything.

Can you guys share what you are eating in a day?

Thanks,

191 today. I am a little disappointed. I had a second fill on Tuesday, I actually feel some restriction and I know I have been eating a lot less ....but it's not showing up on the scale.

I'm going to measure inches today so hopefully there is some loss there. Congratulations you guys for your loss. What a wonderful group of people.

226.6. Gained a pound this week. Pushed the limits this week "seeing" how much I could eat. Felt really hungry a lot- stomach growling and all. I think I wanted to test myself to see if I could eat a lot a still lose weight- well, I know the answer now.......... Fun mind games.
