How did everyone do during Thanksgiving????? I went a little overboard on leftovers...

I did ok - I ate small quantities thats the beauty of this thing though my cals were still full of fat and such. I was also due for a fill so I did get a couple of days of actually getting up to 2000 cals but I ate some junk. Anyway cost me 3 lbs then I went to Dr for the fill and she went more aggressive cuz all I lost was 2 lbs in the month. Now the weight is dropping like a stone mainly because I am a bit overfilled but doing better now. Able to hold down mushies finally after 4 days... Up to yesterday I was mainly on liquids (3 days).

Hi Ladies - I have lost 7.2 so far, with 7.8 to go for my goal of 194! Thanks to a pretty major level of restriction, I might just make it.

Hope everyone is slaying those pounds!

Woot!!! This morning I met my goal!!! I'm now 75 pounds down total!!! I can't believe I lost weight over the holiday...I ate and drank everything I wanted (a tiny bit of the bad stuff mind you, but even a cookie or two a day and plenty of alcohol). I love my band! Just 6 more pounds and I'll be 'NORMAL'!!! Thanks for the Challenge!

WOW!!! How did you do that? Are you exercising a lot? I noticed this week that I am not working I was able to lose 4 lbs in a week! Due to the increase in activity! But I started getting fatigued so I upped my calories. ANyway that is AWESOME!!!

Actually, I don't exercise nearly as much as I should be. That's one of my new year's resolutions- to make it to the gym at least 6 days a week! Mostly I am just careful with what I eat, I follow the "rules" exactly. I follow a low-carb diet and I think that helps the most.
