hey guys my birthday is july 3rd. i've set myself a goal to be 175 by then. anyone with a birthday or goal for around the same time wanna pair up? or any one ele who just wants to help make me accountable and give me that much needed kick in the pants when needed? any help would be really appreciated

Im celebrating the BIG 2-1 ON July 6th!! YAYAY!! I was banded June 3rd ( about 3 wks ago) and im hoping to get down hopefully 10 more pounds. Im dwn for the cause!!

Well, it certainly looks like I'll make it to the 170s this month, which is great! My weight loss has been SO SLOW because of all of the working out I've been doing. I know that muscle weighs more than fat, and I'm losing inches though, so I'm trying to keep it all in perspective!

How is everyone else doing?

catherine, happy to aee you doing so well. my b-day is tomorrow and im happy to report that ive not only met my goal of 175 but have exceeded it and im down to 174. this alos takes me out of the obese category and makes me merely overweight, (lol) but this is the smallest ive been in 10 years so im very excited. i fel great. i had a fill on jine 1s and ireally think im at my sweet spot. ive got a fill scheduled next week and unless i get a dramatic change in restriction im probably gonna cancel it.

ladies we seem to all be trying really hard. so give yourself a reward.( non food of course) i went out and bought myself a really sexy dress to wear out on my b-bay. i cant wait

Ahhh hello women [: I'm celebrating the big 2-1 on July 28th so i'd love to have a support group going on. I started off at 365 banded on June 3rd 2008 and now im down to 283 ish i want to be down to 270 or 265 if i can by the birthday [: let me know what you ladies think

yes im totally quoting myself here but i'm at 274.2 right now and i have 4 lbs to go till im down to my goal b-day weight im hoping i can get back into the swing of things and work my arse off and maybe even get down to 265 god that'd be amazing -crosses fingers- :smile2:

I finally lost another 2.5 lbs. this week. This is the first time if lost anything in about a month. I still need to lose 10lbs to make my birthday goal, so I guess it's not going to happen. I know that the weightloss is going slow because I've had a few set backs. My husband and I neither one are working right now so I haven't had the money to get a fill in about 2 months. Maybe I'll get some birthday money, because not losing with the band is really depressing. Thanks for listening, and congrats to those who are doing well.

Hi Birthday Buddies,

Just an update. I have finally started losing again. I have lost 4 or 5 lbs. in the last 5 day. I know I will probably not make my birthday goal, but I really glad to be losing again. How is everyone else doing?

Woo-hoo!! I made it into the 170s!! I'm at 179.4 as of this morning. I'm going to try to get further into the 170s this month, but am thrilled to finally be here!
