I'm in South Arlington south of 20 off 360

Hey! I'm in Arlington TX. What part are you located in? I'm just getting back on track after a hiatus of about 6 months. So a buddy would be wonderful!! Jayme

OMG! Wendy!! How are you!?!?!?! Glad to hear you are getting banded...its the best thing that has happened to me. So, where are you at now? I had heard you left GW but didn't hear where you went to. I'm really glad you did break the ties, you were worth way more than what GW was giving you credit for. How are the boys??? WOW! So glad you saw the post and replied. I'll have to check out that group you sent a link for. Use to do Water aerobics a loooong time ago and loved it! We need to get together, would love to catch up and see how you are doing :cursing: J

Help! I need help getting back on track. Any South/Southeast Arlington Bandsters looking for an exercise buddy?:crying:

I haven't weighed since starting it...I choose to not have a scale at home because I'd become really OCD about weighing. I had a fill scheduled for today but I really don't need it..should be going back on the 18th for one though. I can tell the difference! I have more energy and I'm working out a great deal more than I was. People keep telling me I'm melting! ha ha ha

Thats what I was thinking..that the liquid goes right through so why wait? Maybe thats why I'm having a hard time getting all the water in that I need. I'll start narrowing the time down. I usually wait 1 hour before drinking again after a meal. By then I'm usually thirsty and need a drink.

THANKS Bubble! I'm going to start this Plateau Busting Diet tomorrow. I'll keep you posted on how it goes. I think my biggest problem is not getting enough liquids in. I'm going to try my hardest!!!! Do you guys still do the "Not drink before 45 mins of eating and 1 hour after eating?"

You know..talk about a kick in the butt! I went in for a check up with my doc and it felt like he was totally disappointed in my progress. I couldn't be more happier..yes I need to work out more and yes I need to up my protein but dang it..I'm down about 80 lbs and my surgery was 12/13..what is wrong with this picture????

OMG..sorry I have been out of the loop! I burned my legs really bad going tubing I have 2nd and 3rd degree burns on both legs. Once I get past this pain and swelling I'm right there with you on the challenge. Guess I'll have to really kick it up since I'll be missing some time!!!

Hey Kellie! I am a December 13th Bandster too! As of 4/11 I was at 60lbs lost. I had a fill then and it was like WOW! It was the "sweet spot" so I haven't been back since then. I go back 7/31 for another fill because I feel like I'm eating WAY too much. I'm really curious to see where my weight loss is now. I'm estimating about 80lbs or so. I really need to get motivated into exercising. It's so hard with two kids under 10 and a hubby that works nights. Blah! I know excuses are not warranted..but wow..I need to schedule it in. Maybe I won't feel so tired?!? Any ideas on some short but effective exercises you can do at home?

I'm totally up for it!! I need to motivation to get going!

Thanks for the info WAS..Bubble.. That does help me not to feel like I'm really doing something wrong here. At least the scale is moving..and I feel so much better about myself.

Hiya! I'm a December Bandster. Surgery was 12/13 and I'm down roughly about 80lbs. My last fill was 4/11 and I'm schedule to go in for another on the 31st of July. I hit the "sweet spot" but then it went away! And another of my frustrations..I have lost 80lbs and I went from a size 28 to now a size 24..whats up with that?
