OK, so I probably won't make another 10 pound loss in two weeks, but I just broke another plateau, so I'm hoping for at least another 5...I've done 18 since June 1 and that's with a week at the beach, a couple weekends out of town...

one more pound to go to my labor day goal!

even more exciting is that that will put me 15 to my goal!!

I had lost my motovation lately, and now i'm seeing that even though the pounds are no longer just dropping off easily, i realized i'm steadily going down just at a slower pace. it's much better of it going UP!!

I hope this gives me the kick in the butt to kick it in high gear!

there are 3 weeks left in the challange. I'm going to make my new goal to get as far into those last 15 pounds that i can! I know the closer to goal, the harder it will be to get them off!

woo hoo!! I met my challenge goal today!

the weight is definitely coming off slower these days....

Now to see how close i can get to having a 60 pound loss by labor day!

when i first was banded I see my goal to have 10 pounds gone for each month banded. I have never NOT made the goal so far...since the weight came off fast in the pre-op and beginning of post-op

9/3 will be my 6 months band date... i would LOVE to have 60 pounds off by then! that means i have 4 pounds to go! i'll have to work HARD for those 4....because they are coming off really slow now...

but i'm gonna give it my ALL!

Congrats to everyone that has already made it to thier goal, and those of you that are working hard at getting to yours!!!

Halloween, which is very close to my original goal of making it to my goal weight!

My b-day is at the end of Oct., and will be almost 8 months (11-3)from my band date.

in the beginning i thought that would be realistic to achieve. i didn't take into account that the last few pounds would go REALLLLLY slow!

I'm going to try my best though.

I have a PS consult on November 12th and i want to be at goal by then. It is my reward and motivation to work hard at this.

I will then have to maintain, or possibly lose more if the surgeon thinks i should. I don't plan to have surgery until March, so i will have 4 months to do so.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
