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.

Up down up down I'm getting tire of these last 10 to 15 lbs they are proving to be the hardest. At one point I was at 203 now back to 205.......Grrrrrrr

I feel your pain JT. It's to get you ready for maintenance...I swear, because that's what it's like...watching those last few pounds every day...for the rest of your life...unless you're Jersey Girl...LOL (sorry, I'm laughing with you JT...I'm right there with you).:confused:

You SO need to have a Onederland party when you get there, which will be soon! Hang in there!

Whoot! 151 Back down 4.5 to my pre-vacation weight...fickle Band...guess my scale is in charge of deciding when it wants to move! Happy Friday all!

Oh, and if you didn't see my blog...I did an interview for a short article for the Allergan/LB site (to come out sometime this fall/winter) about my hiking at the Grand Canyon (back last Fall)...they found my blog post here. Too fun!

down 17 lbs so far!!!

i have been absent for a bit, and need to get focused again. I have been bouncing 204 - 209 range.. dunno whats up. I went thru few weeks of eating below 700 or 800 calories a day, and am trying to ramp up the Cals. maybe next week is an improvement.

JT - i follow you as my role model -- so, keep it up mate.

Good Job BG.

FYI - I gained .5 lbs this week. jeeez

I knew last week was too good to be true LOL...lots of bad choices this week and I was up to 157 on Friday, and 159.5 today...yikes! I'm still trying to figure out if I need a partial refill...Back to basics.

I can only wish that a boomerang to 159 was my problem. Hey, if i can ever shrug the last 55 lbs then it could be.. I bounced up to 212 - after hanging at 206/208 for the longest time.. as you said girlie .. back to basics.. Good luck.

Weighed 177 this AM. 2 lbs this week. I leave for home on Wed and hope to see the Dr next week. I have terrible reflux and seem to be up-chucking daily. Not good.

157, down the 2.5 of my Labor Day feastival.

JG- Glad you're going to the Doc...reflux if no fun!

206.4 this morning.. a trickle in the right direction. I guess I had strayed without being aware of it (tired of plateau'ing led me to get lazy/snack/be a bad boy). Heading down the path now .. hopefully a little consistency before my cruise..

Weighed in at 174 this am. Down 1.5. Went to the Dr. yesterday am good news is that the band didn't slip. It was too tight. Nothing was getting through it. That's why I was throwing up all the time and had reflux. They took out 2 cc and I feel wonderful. I can actually eat and keep it down. No reflux last night. Just have to be careful not to get carried away. I don't understand the logic of how the band got too tight because I got too thin.

I was at 200 today even after vaction I hope I can get the last 5-10 pounds off.

Back from Ohio...still bouncing around in the high 150's...I'm going in for a fill mid-October. I think (I'm sure my Doc will have the final word) I'll just get a small fill as I want to take it slowly on the refill...don't want that reflux back.

Glad you're feeling better JG! Curious...is that what they told you...or why do they think it got tight?

Me too BG me too......

Where did you go in Ohio I'm from there originally.

Still just under 160...going for a small fill (maybe) on the 12th.

I grew up in Columbus (Worthington, just North), and I've got family in Westerville, Olentangy, Worthington and Delaware. DH lived in Cincinnati (Anderson) and we went back there for a year (Mt. Washington)...we both graduated from OSU and went back for the game. My extended family has relatives all over OH as well. Anything close?

OK, now for (peer pressure) support...weight?:thumbup:
