Great post Kime-lou. I've gotten myself in trouble a few times b/c of my need to defend who & what I believe in. I've apologized and learn to block. Not only is the band a learning process, but learning social media is too. Sometimes someone can be coming off as rude and uncaring when that is the farthest thing from that persons intent. I personally get great joy sharing what works for me or things I've experienced. I would not be here if it was only to pick out ppls mistakes. That is not what makes me happy. Thank you for reminding us all to live & learn in a positive way!

i cant wait to get where you are!!!!

It's easier to start and continue exercising when you enjoy it so look for activities that you enjoy. I love cycling, dancing, walking and swimming, which gives me plenty of variety as well.

Great reminder to get out there and MOVE. My choice of exercise is walking, but I find many excuses to "skip it today." I will be banded on the 21st of this month and I can't have the mindset that I will start to excercise once I have the surgery. I know that is not the way to think. Now---to get myself out of this chair and out the door for a brisk walk! : ) Good Luck in your journey.

YES!!!!! Just keep that blood flowing to the furthest parts of your body!!! Use it or loose it!

Hey hang in there, this is a journey. I've been stuck in the 220's forever. This week I finally got tight with my eating and workouts and the weight is coming off again. We will have our good days and bad days. So are you crafty or a baker? You could always bake some nice cookies or muffins and give those as gifts. Party City has some nice festive bags and those little Chinese take out boxes decorated. I'm thinking about doing that for my friends at work. It's the thought that counts. Anyway, if you want to DM me, I can email you this excel spreadsheet I made. I originally kept up with it weekly, but just ended up doing ti the old school way and writing/coloring on a desk calender I have hung by my bed. The spreadsheet has two sheets and two graphs. One is a x/y plot of weight vs. date and the other is a column plot that shows the weight lost for each week. Happy Holidays
