Freedom Fighters Weekly Weigh In

I know the idea of a weekly weigh-in has been thrown around a couple times, but I haven't seen an actual thread started on it, sooooo......

What do you think, weekly weigh in?

If so, what day? I'm partial to weekends, just cuz I'm more likely to weigh myself on the weekends, but I'll go with the majority vote.

OK, I guess I spoke too soon last week. I am up 1.5 lbs this week, and I don't really know why....ok, yes I do. I haven't eaten great volumes of food, but I have let sugar slip back in (sneaky sneaky), and I have not been getting my protein or my water in.

LW - 196

Current 197.5 :thumbup:

I hear you Mary....Good for you for getting back on track! Thats the key! I'll admit, part of me was just gonna blow by today's weigh in....but here i am. I'm eating solid, but just too much i guess..tho I'm staying with good high protein foods..so i dont get it. Sigh...

surgery wt: 244.7

last week: 225.6

this week: 226.0

I have been going up and down for so long now! I go in to the Dr. again on Wednesday. Im thinking he might do a slight fill - I dont anticipate any huge amount because I already have 7cc's in my 11 cc band..maybe just a slight amount will do the trick!

Good luck all!

195 last week, 192 this week. Surprised me because I haven't changed much. Go for my third fill today so we'll see what next week looks like!

back from vegas...no weight lost/gained. im happy

now its time to get back to losing weight instead of money

OK, I guess I spoke too soon last week. I am up 1.5 lbs this week, and I don't really know why....ok, yes I do. I haven't eaten great volumes of food, but I have let sugar slip back in (sneaky sneaky), and I have not been getting my protein or my water in. So, in the past I would not have posted, waited till I was down some more and then come back, but I am pressing the restart button right now. I got up at 6AM and got my walk in (was getting slack on that too), had a protein shake for breakfast, and I am back on track. Just like that. So, I am not going to change my ticker, but I will next week, no matter what. Even though I have to go public with my failures, I will give myself that little bit of grace. :cursing:

I hope everyone else has GOOD news to report. I will next week!

That is awesome that you posted, Mary. I, too, am trying to change my bad habits. That is why I post so much... to 'stay in the game'. Not slink away and go back to my old ways. I am sure you will get that pesky pound to go away quickly!

Week 14 of weekly weigh-in

7-20-09 239.5

10-20-09 228.5 at least it's the right direction

50 pounds lost, doing the happy dance

20 pounds to go until i hit my first goal which i hope to reach by the end of the year.

Ok..after a month of struggling had a slight fill on wednesday - and I can finally post a loss again...

surgery wt: 244.7

last week: 226.0

this week: 223.4

My doctor did a 1.5cc fill, but couldnt swallow water, so he took out the .5 and i ended up with 1cc. This is now a total of 8cc's in my 11cc band. He told me to amp up the exercise (urgh)....

We'll see..this is an all time low for me - I'm soooo wanting to get below 220 and then the goal will be to be under 200#'s..that almost seems impossible to me...but baby steps..I'll work towards under 220 first!

ok, so I have been avoiding the weekly weigh in because I felt like I wasn't doing that great. It is up and down all week but by the end of the week its down a bit.

7/6/09 251

10/26/09 209.5

I have only lost about 5 pounds in 6 weeks which is frustrating because I was losing about 3 pounds a week. Oh well a loss is a loss.

Last week 245.6

This week 245.2 ( -0.4lbs )

Total 36.0lbs, ave 2.1 lbs/wk

Not surprised...just finished 5 days of antibiotic...in bed for two days...I've only worked out once in the last 7 days and I'm 3 days from TOM....

Next will be better ...fingers crossed

I'm new to this thread hope you all don't mind if I join. I had surgery July 7th. Starting weight was 308lbs. I'm now down to 277lbs. So I'm at 31 down. I have had a doctor visit once a month since surgery and had two fills. I have 4cc in band. I need to get back on track with eating more healthy. This year has been extremely tough though. I have lost my Mom to breast Cancer and my husband farms so this time of the year during harvest I feel depressed and think I turn to the wrong things. Not all the time but enough to get frustrated. I usally don't eat a whole lot but know I choose the wrong things. :( I'm hoping being on here will give me the will power I need to get started on the right track again.

Last week:228

I don't know about you guys, but until my fill last wednesday, i was stuck between 228-231 for the past 4 weeks....it was VERY frustrating! I'm just so happy to have broken my plateau and i know i'm gonna be dropping like crazy now (since i can workout again fully)...YAY! Hope everyone else is having luck~

AND WELCOME, mrsjlbrown! :laugh: We're always happy for new banders :lol:
