This Is My First Challenge My Current Wt Of Today Is 251 On My Scales. I Look To Lose 20 Lbs By Nov.14. I Just Had My 2nd Fill 2 Days Ago So I Am Ready!!!! Let's Git R Done......... Jamie

Count me in! My weight this morning is 255.5 and my goal for the 10 week challenge is 25.5. I'll post a pic later, as soon as I figure out how. I just had my first fill a few days ago, so I'm feeling optimistic! Good luck everyone!!

It's Sunday evening, in Australia, but I'm not going to be around tomorrow to post, as I'm going to Sea World for a couple of days (haven't decided if I'll take the laptop or not), so thought I'd do it now.

Weight this morning - 93kgs/205lbs

So down 1kg/2lbs since last Monday. I'm sure I'll pile on a few during the next few days away though LOL.

FIRST WEIGH IN SINCE JOINING CHALLENGE

Starting weight 225

Todays weight 223

Lost ```````````2 pounds!

Total to meet goal set for this challenge 18 pounds~

Oh my gosh, I think I hit another goal today~ That goal was to weigh the same or less than my father which hasn't happened in a very very very long time!!!! Today however is the day where I think I matched his weight!!! I will call him in a little while to confirm that, but EHA I think I did it~ Is this what is called an NSV?? YEEEAAAAAAAHH ~~

I guess my friend chasing me with that snake did have some benefits..ehehehehe

Here it is, the before pic - although its really a 'week one' pic.

And no, I'm not pregnant :cross-eye

Weight today : 257.8, so thats 1 pound and a bit since we started.

This will be my first weight loss challenge since being banded. I am going to aim for twenty pounds, and will be happy with 15 (I've not had a first fill yet). I will try to post a picture once I figure out how to. Good luck to all.

I am in on this challenge! I am starting at 196. My goal is to lose 10 lbs. over the next 9 weeks! I have lost 48 since banding last November. Thanks for the motivation to keep going down. Good luck everyone!

This morning I'm 253. Yep, that is a 2 lb GAIN for me. :) Wish I could say it was all muscle, but I'm nearly positive it has something to do with ice cream, chocolate, oh yeah..and Mexican food!!! Thankfully I'm headed to the doc's office today for a fill which should help with my restriction, and always gives me a psychological boost as well. I was scheduled for one Aug. 19th, but rescheduled because I had good restriction and had lost about 13lbs in the 3 wks since my last fill. I am a bit nervous that I have a leak, as my fills seem to last only 3-4 weeks, then nothing! Of all 6 cc's I should have in my band, my doc was only able to get 2.5 cc's out at my last visit.

Great job Keri, Kim, Loulou, Porclndoll, and Parvathi! Keep up the good work!

yippee! Down from 198. so basically I have lost what I had gained at the end of the Summer Challenge!! :) Changing my sig now. Happy Monday everyone! SO so so glad to be here checking in. It means lots to me, ya'll. Have a great weight loss week!!!!
