i stayed the same this weeks due to not being able to eat last weekend (nothing would go down dont know why) but once i started eating again my body just latched onto all the cals so i put on a few lbs but by fri back to the same so im happy with that.

well my annivarsary chalange finished on sat - unfortuatly i didnt lose what i wanted - i came about 5 lbs short - but i did lose and since i was sticking on my weight for a few mths before starting back on this site. so thanks to all of you for support. and well done to all of us for having the courage to change our lives.:smile2:

Morning, Im happy to be down 3/4 lbs this week after my holidays, cause i did put on near 2 lbs straight after. last weigh in 189.2 - today 188.6

Well my weight loss is not realy worth noting this week im down 0.2 lbs. Didnt do any walking last week and to make things worse i go on holidays tomorrow for a week. Cant see me making my anniversary target - i need to lose 7.5lbs for it.:thumbup:

Hi everyone, congrats to all u losers. i had a very small loss this week 0.4 lbs ahh well. :tongue_smilie:

This is twice ive started this so something must be working. Im still on daily plate and its working for me - im down 1.5 lbs this week, and very happy with it.:thumbup:

omg - well done 100lbs wow, id say u thought that u would never be able to say you have LOST 100 lbs in less that 1 years - oh wow. :bored:

ivw logged my weight here two weeks in a row now that good for me. Im down 1 lbs this week- ive been tracking again and ive also noticed the day i dont get enough protien thats the days i pick at food. onwards and upwards - or in our case downwards hopfully:wink:

I have had a big wake up call today. I thought that i just couldn't get this band to work for me. Today i want onto Daily Plate after hearing about it on this site and im totally shocked. Im only half way through the day and ive eaten nearly 900 cal already. I have to say this is really encouraging that i would have thought i haven't eaten much so i wouldn't think too much about what i eat later - but omg im shocked. Who ever i read this from thank you its a great tool and id recommend everyone struggling should give it a go ud be surprised. :thumbup::thumbup:

i never start this - i normaly have to avoid it, not this week Down 2.25 lbs he daily plate is defo working for me im soooo happy.:thumbdown::biggrin: gook luck everyone else:thumbup:

I stayed the same this week but don't feel to bad cause my tom last week so did no exercise at all, back to it this week so hope to see results .

i know its a bit late in the week to post but this is acually from friday so down 1 lbs - i will take it and run (well walk) i hope this is me back on track i cant of paid all that money for nothing ***will power will power will power**** hope for a good wk next fri

yea i get my fills from the wls group - i was banded through them - they come to swords once a mth Wendy is lovely cant recomend them enough - i think they cost €125. i normaly book through e-mail Colleen@wlsgroup.co.uk. the next time they are in dublin is wed 10th june and then its every 4 weeks always a wednesday.

i havent even looked at this site in mths cause i feel so crap at how im doing,i still weight my self every day to be honest but work from my friday weigh in, but i might as well set a goal for my bandaversary. by 1st August 2009 want to weigh 181lbs i dont have memorial day or anything in between so its just that which is 14lbs. oh this better work.

trying to get tracker up

hey your weight loss is great compared to my pathetic attempt. 30 + lbs. i haven't lost any weight since dec ive had 2 fills since and will have another in june but i just cant get this to work for me any more im sooo up and down. Its normal cause life is up and down and unfortunately we prop ended up here cause we ate in accordance to our life. :purplebananna: . Im just venting on this now but does anyone wish they got the by pass - it just seems it would have been so much easier and quicker. I love the was i feel now compared to how i used to but this is sooo much harder than i expected and i feel a failure cause i cant do it and soooo many others can. :crying:aaagggghhhhh.

I felt the same way when i was trying to decide if it was for me. I thought there is no way im having it done if i have no proper life after. I enjoy my drinks - i drink tia maria and diet coke - and i still do every weekend. But i have to say it does slow down the weight loss, but most weeks i lose 1-2 lbs. My sil had the band the same time as me she is a Budweiser girl - and she still is. As for the mash foods that is required after the band is fitted and after each fill. But they recommend staying away from food like that cause it goes though too easily. You need will power to stop eating slider foods - my big thing is crisps, they go down too easily. I have had Pbing, mostly my own fault. With everything i would NOT change a thing, ok i wouldn't like to go through the procedure again, but this is the best thing i have done for my self and even though im way off my goal i know il get there and my confidence has scored.:tongue:

P.S. For those who haven't done it... It is horrible having to add lbs to your tracker..:tongue: I never want to do that again....

i know it only 2 days till this wk weigh in but i need to put this down so i kick my self up the ass. I'm up 4 lbs..... I've given up smoking -nearly 2 weeks off them:thumbup:. I thought i would be fine because of the band i wouldn't be able to eat. Instead of smoking im hunting down foods i can eat, so after dinner im heading straight for biscuits. in the evening its crisps / chips. Im not a chocolate lover but im eating it for the sake of it.:tongue: So i got another fill today, i have put on a total of 7lbs since xmas eve. Im starting afresh from today, no more shit foods. This is where the will power is needed.....

ive lost 1.5 this week, im now 195 so 10 lbs to go for Valentine's goal. and i have a fill in 1.5 weeks so that should help.

right i better join in cause i put on 5 lbs over xmas. to much drinking. im curently 196.5 so il aim to be 185.0 which it a goal to lose 11.5lbs :thumbs_up:

well im a happy woman - im down 2.5lbs since my last weigh in i think it was 2 wks ago - but i hit my xmas target :biggrin:

i was only thinking of posting this question as well. My shower wall is like a hairdresser floor. my hair is falling out in clumps. i knew i was prone to it cause it happened after both my children were born and the grow back is worse than it falling out. my whole hair line fell out and now i have spikes on the top and the back looks like a boys hair cut underneath the rest of my hair. i know after pregnancy it does stop im hoping it will stop soon cause my house is getting over run with hair......:biggrin:

hi flirtylass, i get my fills done by wendy in dublin i know she goes to belfast as well, not sure where. She is with WLS group. I book through colleen@wlsgroup.co.uk or check out the web site for a ph no: www.wlsgroup.co.uk she normaly comes to ireland the first wed of every mth and i think the following wk she goes to belfast. She is very very nice and knows what she is doing. I would recomend them - they group was started by michelle who had the band in herself and didnt think enough after care was available... hope this helps. :thumbup:

im down 2 lbs. 1 from last wk and 1 from the wk end. I dont have thanks giving over in ireland but i have my xmas party with my job on friday so that will slow my weight down for next wk. Im hoping to get another 7lbs off by xmas.
