Just checking to see if my updated ticker works.

I had my band done in Dec 2008 and I let it get to loose and I am starting over again. I had lost 80 pounds at 1 year and now I am back over 300 pounds. I an exercising and watching my food intake but most of all I am back at my Dr. so my band can help me. Is there anyone out there who has gone through this and can give me some much needed encouragement. Thanks, Dena

I finally got my ticker working today. Yeah. Good luck to all for 2010.

Hello Everyone, I haven't posted in a long while and I have had some great success. I have lost 31 pounds since my last post and a total of 73.2 pounds since my surgery. My anniversary of my band is next Wednesday and I am hoping to be at 75 pounds total loss. I will try and keep up with my posting. I go back to the Doctor on January 26th and hope to be 10 more pounds lighter. I am exercising more and that helps a lot. My goal for January is 10 pounds.

I lost 1.8 last week. I feel really good and my close are feeling looser. I can't wait to go to the doctore on Tuesday. Have a great weekend.

I am going to set my goal for september. I am going to set my goal at 10 pounds. I lost track of how much I am working on this month but I am sure it is good. I will be on vacation the fist of September so I hope I can not indulge to much. Have a good week everyone.

Well I have lost another 5 pounds so i am down 13.5 pounds since my last fill. I just hope it keeps on going. Have a great weekend everyone.

Great job Veronica72. 1/2 wat is a good place to be. I lost 1.4 #'s last week. I am down 8.5 #'s since last doctor appointment on 7-13. I am hoping to be down another 3.5 #'s by August 25th. I am at my sweet spot with my band and I have so much hope that I can get this weight off and keep it off. Florida Pete, It was glad to hear from you. I pray all gets better for you. Thanks, for all the support I get from you guys.

Great Job China!! I lost 6 pounds this last month. My goal for August is another 5 pounds. Slow and steady wins the race.

Great job on the 14 pounds. I go back to the doctor on August 25th and am hoping to be down 10-12 pounds my self. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I also lost 1 pound this week which was good. It was my birthday yesterday and I had ice cream cake over the weekend. I am biking everyday and I know that helps. I actually can't wait to go back to the doctor because I will have such a good loss this time that I will make everyone happy. I am hoping to get to my 200's by christmas which will be my 1 year anniversary. I hope everyone has a great week.

Well I gave in and had some muffin. Not the whole thing but some of it. I am doing better at lunch with fruit. I will most likely not biking much this weekend because my Birthday is Monday and I will be celebrating all weekend. I must stay focused.

I have a a group of people I work with that eat like crazy and I have chocolate muffins staring at me. If I can resist the muffins it will be wonderful to me. I biked last night and it made me feel a sense of accomplishment and I am seeing the weight come off finally. China we are in this thing together and please draw strength from anyone you can. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Good Luck China! I hope you start to feel better. I know what you mean about emotional eating. Hope you enjoy the gym. I will bike after my son's piano practice.

I feel like I am finally doing better. I have a lost 4.9 since my last fill on July 13th. I am biking and walking everyday. I pray thi all continues. 2 years ago I got down to 220 with wieght watchers but gained it all back. I hope I will see that number again or even lower. I hope everyone continues to have a good week.

Hang in there. You can do it. It takes all of us to help each other. I will be praying for you.

Bahamas sounds fun. Good luck on your goal.:cursing:

I appriciate all the support. I have been eating good and riding my bike every day for 30 minutes and I think I will have a loss of atleast 2-3 pounds. I am addicted to the scale and weigh everyday. I need to only weigh once a week but i worry I am not doing enough. It will all tell when I go back to the doctor on 8-25. My goal then is to have lost at least 10 pounds if not more. Wich me luck on my goal and Sue in Ne I wish you luck on your goals.

Thank you China, I have exercised everyday of this week so far and am looking for a weight loss next time.

I had my first official weight gain of 3#'s at the doctors office. I haven't done very good at all. I got a .5cc fill and I think I am about to my sweet spot. I rediscovered mashed potatos and it got me a lecture at the doctors office. I think I was rebelling a little because I miss eating some foods. I am afraid I am going to be a little to tight but I am going to hang in there until it loosens up a little. I don't want any taken out because I am afraid of a gain. Hope everyone has a great week.

I wouls love to win the iPod. Hopefully I can be given this great gift.

Oh I forgot to add that my goal for July is 5 pounds. My weight loss is slow so I will have a low goal and maybe be able to met it this time.

I haven't posted in a while but I have stayed the same. I am feeling restriction but I am not quite at my sweet spot. I am finding it hard to find the time to workout. I have a stationary bike, treadmill and pool at home and still can't seem to get motivated. I go back for a fill July 13th and hopefully it will be a good loss for me. I go on vacation Wednesday and am a little worried about eating the right things. I hope everyone has a good week and a safe 4th of July Holiday.

I gained 2# this week. I am still loose. I have a fill next week so hopefully I can get to a point that I am not struggling so much. I hope everyone has a great week.

Welcome to the group. I hope you meet your goal.
