This is not easy, and you guys are the best support I could hope to have.

Thanks!

I totally agree, Rebecca. You all are the greatest!:tongue2: Thanks so much for being here for me and everyone else! Hooray for the Mayo Banditos! :wink2:

178#. down 2 lbs this week even though I was in Vegas!! We stayed at the Plazzo. What an awesome place. Have a great week everyone!!

Wow, that is awesome -- to lose while in Vegas with all those buffets around? wow. Congrats! :wink2:

Hi everyone! How is it going?

I slowed down - Halloween didn't help (ahem!) but I got my 3rd fill last week and now I REALLY feel restricted! Not to the point where I can't eat, but definitely more than I've had for the past few months. It could be that elusive sweet spot.

Anyway, the scale is starting to move for me again - I hit 198 this morning.

Great job everyone! Linda, you look fantastic!

11-12-09= 225 lbs

11-19-09= 222 lbs

can't believe it but I lost 3 lbs this week! woo hoo!

Linda, you do look great! Love the new profile pic. :scared2:

Carrie, way to go, losing 3 lbs. in one week. That is awesome! :confused:

Still holding my own @ 223..........I hope this continues......Little anxious about Thanksgiving :bored:, but the band will keep be in check......

Everyone is doing an incredible job...........Keep it up........

***** HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL *******

Only down .2 this week but right at the half way point.

Everyone have a great Thanks Giving and don't gobble, gobble. ha ha

I lost 2 lbs. this week. Definitely feel like my weight loss is slowing down, even though I believe I am close to my sweet spot. Isn't that funny? I thought I would lose more once I got the right restriction. Oh, well. Just going with the flow... and happy for every pound lost! :)

Keep up the great work, Mayo Banditos, and don't worry too much about Thanksgiving. It's just another day! Relax and enjoy. :bored:

I have done the up and down a bit due to a leaky port, I had my port replaced and when that was done on 10/30 I was at 268.5, last week I was at 263 and today I was at 260. So I feel like maybe I have the right spot now. Right after the port replacement I was TOO Tight and could not swallow my own spit, they removed it and made me wait a week for swelling to go down, then they overfilled me and I had terrible reflux for 5days, we took out 3/10 cc and no more reflux and I seem to have a good balance between restriction and being able to eat. I sure hope it sticks for a while.

That is wonderful news, On the Way! Yippeee! I was just wondering how you were. Thanks for checking in. Keep up the great work! :thumbup:

Down 1 lb. Slow but sure as I get nearer my goal. Two lbs. from my original goal. 17 lbs. from my revised goal. I must say, I'm happy!!

Elaine, congratulations! You are so close to goal now! Way to go! :biggrin::biggrin:

Thanks, Ann. You are doing great too. I am struggling with being near my sweet spot. Reading everyone's posts has helped alot.

So the day after T-day!!! And I am the first to write! I can't believe I actually went down

11/20 186.6

11/27 185.8

-.8

I'll take it. I have been fighting 186 for most of the month! And now I have broken into 185. I am contemplating getting another fill but I still have restriction if I eat too fast. I know it's the fact that I need to excercise.... cuz I don't AT ALL! I am also noticing that I use this weigh in as a blog/confessional sometimes. So sorry that I am rambling.

Hope all had a great T-day!!! Now I am off to vacation this Monday for a week cruise! I am bringing my walking shoes for that!

Well, I truly had a holiday week--up 2.5 lbs. Wishing the rest of you better luck!! :thumbup:
