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.

WHOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO BG!!!!!!! So happy for you!

I've been to two funerals in the last 6 days. I didn't weigh in on Friday, simply forgot. Then I snacked way too much. But not as much as I would've before learning to "work" my band. Anyhow I'm up 3 lbs right now, but I hope to be down by next week with addtional loss. Of course I have 2 parties this weekend to attend. Both are drinking events with tons of bad food. I must be strong!!!

I'm at 211 today. Heather you'll get it back off those bad food parties are tough good thing about drink with the less food we eat the drinks go further.

Yea!!! I'm at 221 today. That means I lost the 3.5 I gained last week and an additional 1.5. I purposely did not exercise yesterday as I thought that might have been my problem last week. Listen to me I'm grasping at straws.

Ok, I've changed my ticker to reflect 262, which would be a 4 lb loss. But I'm a bit nervous that my scale is having issues. It was taking a super long time to give my weight. Then it gave me 262.3. So I tried it again and it gave me 265.4. I stepped on again (Yes, again :smile2: ) and it listed 262.3. So I'm sticking with that and hoping that it is confirmed in the next couple days.

Well, after 10 days in Italy - YAY, I gained no weight .. miracle bloody miracle .. Anyway, this week, down a tad.. 223.7 making it a total of 63 down . this is a slow process - 11 months, 63 lbs .. oh well, better than 63 the other way.. have a good weekend all.

Morning. I gained again this week. 223.5 (up 1.5) I'm getting really annoyed. I go to the Dr. Thursday. Do not want a fill. I need to get in more calories. Exercising like crazy. (Didn't change my ticker)

Hope everyone else is well.

I have the same issue .. after a quick dip down 3 lbs, i bounced up 2 just in time for my Friday weigh-in.. Not impressed. Oh well, onward we go.. better luck next week.

Same here girls! I went to 208 for a couple days this week and then back to what I was last week 211. I see my Dr. on Wednesday I know I don't want a fill but not sure about having a little taken out. I'm hard pressed to get my water in...well not hard pressed I just can't mak eit happen...I'm able to eat OK now just not able to get water in till way after I eat and then not as much as I should.

Tryng to refocus again...I'm still about the same as where I was 3 weeks ago...my body just wants to stay at about 160 (I only saw goal for one day...sigh). I'm wondering if this is a mental thing as well; 160 is the lowest I've ever been able to diet down to before (many moons, and many many diets and pounds ago) so it's how I set my goal as I know I had some excess weight at 160...also having just under that as a goal am I just 'happy with where I am' unconsciously? Trust me...my bum and thighs have plenty of excess weight still. This journey is always a mystery. Hmmm.

I stepped on the scale today and it read 255, whoo hoo! On 3/5/10 I was 263. I'm a very happy camper.

Woo Hoo that's great

"I'm so excited". I lost the 2.5 I gained back last week plus 3.5 more. I'm finally out of the 20's. 217.5 this morning.

I'm hoping to have 100 lbs off by vacation in April.

I'm reporting 210 this week I did hit 209 during the week but was at 210 today. I'm hoping my my unfill doesn't make me go the wrong way.

240 lbs this week. Did not lose any weight but did not gain either. Til next week.. :thumbup::frown:

159.5...at least it's under that d*mn 160...*sigh* I've got my surgery consult (gallbladder) Tuesday and I'm going to ask about a tiny fill then. Little afraid to get overfilled so I don't know how much to ask for, but hopefully he'll know...or maybe he won't want to give me one at all (haven't seen him in 6 months since my last fill and since I'm now at a Normal BMI I don't know what he'll say). I'm struggling though just to stay the same now. Happy Weekend all!
