Mayo Banditos / Friday Weigh In !!!!



Recommended Posts

well for the 3rd week in a row im battling the same 2 pounds up and down. ever since my last fill I have absolutly no restriction. I feel like I am hungry all the time. I am working out every other day running on the treadmill..then on sat I go with a friend and hike some of the hardest mountains in phoenix. I thought with doing all this I would be down a few pounds, but no such luck. Thankfully tuesday I go in for my 3rd fill. I really hope that helps.

Ann-I hear you stomach here in phoenix and mine is answering back...listen and you can hear it say....feed me!!!! But I am trying to hold strong!

congrats to all this week weather you lost, maintained, or gained a little. We are all working toward the same goal on this journey. Keep strong and heres to a great next week loss!!!!

John, you are doing great! I think I thought you were a golfer because of your ticker. lol You certainly get a lot of exercise in. That's fantastic. How much do you walk each day? I just bought a membership to the rec center, so I'm starting up my Water walking/jogging again.

BTW, that's cool that you have a 55 Chevy. Would love to see a picture of it sometime!! :thumbup:

Hi Ann -

At work, I try and walk 20 minutes during lunch. 3-4x at night I go to the gym. 10 min warm up on the eliptical machine ( heart rate 100), 30 min weights, 20 minutes on the treadmill ( H/R 130).

I'll email you a link to view the oics of the 55 Chevy.:blink:

This is my third week without weight loss. Bummer.

I talked with the Medical Director where I work yesterday (who is also banded). She said it is just the metabolism catching up, or adjusting. Maybe so, but it is still frustrating.

Hope next week is great for everyone!

Congratulations, everyone! :w00t: Another great week for the mayo Banditos!

Rebecca, don't worry, the numbers will drop again. I bet if you took your measurements now you would notice a difference in those numbers! :)

John, good job at maintaining! Good luck with your port replacement on Monday. We'll be thinking of you. Hope your recovery is easy and swift. Please come on here as soon as you can and let us know that you're all right. :smile:

Way to go, Linda! Welcome to Onederland! Isn't it onederful??? :closedeyes: Love the picture.

Like the new picture, Sassysara. Very cute. :smile: Here's to any pound down!!! :lol:

I lost 3.5 lbs this week, which is a net loss of 0.5 lbs because I had gained 3 lbs. last week. I was so glad to see those leave! They left with their friends (not mine) TOM and Flo. :) lol

Have a great weekend, everyone!!! :smile:

Congrats Linda. What a great feeling!

I came down 1.5 pounds this week, but it was a work in progress over the last few weeks. Down to 176 now. I can't wait for my 2nd fill on Monday. Hopefully that will get me going faster again. GB

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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?

      April Surgery
      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
