    August Bandsters How are you Doing So Far

    Good for you Pizzicato66!! Way to go:whoo:!! My family took my scale away because it was actually doing me more harm than good. The weight just isn't leaving as quick as others or as quick as I would like. I just have to accept that but its hard. Hubby weighed me in this morning and said I was down. Not at wonderland yet but hopefully getting close. I spoke to the doctor's office last week who told me I am not eating enough:rolleyes:. Dear God....I need to set realistic expectations and get moving now.

    December Exercise Challenge

    Hi everyone!! Boy, has it been busy!! I had to take a break last week from the treadmill. My port became sore from moving around while I run:rolleyes:. You can imagine what makes it "jiggle". Anyway I went and bought myself a tight tummy toner and it worked like a charm. I have been running the last 3 days with no pain.:clap2::whoo:

    Thanks!! Yes, it makes quite a difference. I am still full from my egg beaters this morning. Normally by now I am looking to snack. Have a safe trip!

    I can only hope to get to the point where I want to work out. I am not weighing myself everyday because my weight fluctuates too much. Once a week will do it for me. I can feel a difference so hopefully the scale will show a difference. Since I turned 45 this year the weight is hard to drop.

    30 minutes treadmill....125 crunches on the AB Lounger and a bit of boxing (that was fun....saw it on the Biggest Loser). If this continues Son #2 will get something very special for Christmas. ;) :clap2:

    Salsa, The fill is great. What a difference! I ate a bit too quick today and got a terrible pain but it subsided pretty quickly. I can just about stick to 3 small meals a day and my Protein in between. I am hoping my son sticks with the exercise. It helps me because I don't want to disappoint him.

    weight lifting with my son and 30 minutes on the treadmill. He has agreed to be my workout buddy. I wonder how much that will cost me!!

    First fill, FINALLY

    Hi Alexandra, I was done on 11/29 by Dr Bertha as well. It was a bit scary. He put 4cc in my 14cc band. I desperately needed this as well. By the way, support group misses you!!!

    August Bandsters How are you Doing So Far

    Thanks for the good wishes and GREAT advice!! It is 12:30PM and I am not really hungry at all. I brought some pureed homemade turkey soup to work because I will try eating solids at home first. I had 1/4 cup of egg beaters this morning and I was full!! I feel restricted and love it. I am doing exactly what Candle and Salsa told me about the fill. It is working and WILL WORK for a long time. I am ready now. I can feel it!! :clap2::clap2: Now to start exercising.... Thanks again to everyone....what a nice feeling to know I have so much support.

    I went for my first fill today!! I am so excited. What a weird feeling. I have good restriction right now but I know that could disappear soon. I hope it stays!!:whoo::whoo:

    Hi everyone, I go for my first fill tomorrow. I can't wait!! I am so hoping for restriction. If not I need to still get my head together and do this. I am attending my first support group meeting tonight. Should have been there the 2nd week or so. Oh well....time to get on the "band" wagon!! Wish me luck!!:clap2::whoo::clap2::whoo:

    Thanks Frangipani! I am really going to buckle down now and hope for a good fill. It is frustrating and I am trying to hold on! Thanks for the support. I really do appreciate it and need it!

    November Exercise Challenge!

    Becky, The DVD isn't boring yet because I just began. I imagine day after day it would become boring.. I don't break too much of a sweat but I do get tired. The next day I hurt. I used the Water weights too that come with the dvd. I only paid $13 for the set at WalMart.

    Roll Call!!!!!

    Thanks Salsa!! I definitely will. I thought about going back to Weight Watchers for accountability but I don't want to spend the money. I will be a daily poster now!!
