2.6 lbs. down. Could have been more had I not messed up over the weekend. Good Luck Everyone!!!

Everyone, don't forget to post your weight loss for the week tomorrow, Monday, by 8:00 pm. After 8:00, I will post a list with everyone progress. We will do this every week on Monday until Christmas, then we can all post one on Christmas Day if everyone wants to. Good Luck Everyone!

Hi Everyone, It's good to see more Feb Bandster. I was banded Feb 25th. So far, I have lost 52lbs, went from a tight size 20 to a comfortable 14. I know I could have lost more if I would just follow all the rules like in the beginning. So, to try and get back on track, I have started a Christmas Weight Loss Challenge. Here is a link if anyone would like to join. http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f178/christmas-weightloss-challenge-105187/. Lets try to keep in touch. Ja9rhone - I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Seeing a councelor to deal with your grieve is a wonderful step to staying focused and on track.

Here is an up dated list of everyone. I hope you all are doing better than I am. I did really good until yesterday. I went to my clinical and our instructor bought us pizza for dinner. I usually can't eat it, but I thought I would give it a try and it went down fine, so I eat 2 slices. Maybe working 12 1/2 hrs. helped work it off.

I just started using my wii fit again yesterday. I'm doing 30 minutes of aerobics and I try to do 30 minutes of the free step at night. You can do the free step and watch your favorite show at the same time. Once I get used to exercising again, I'll probably step it up with some strengh training. I know this isn't really the information that you were looking for, but hopefully it will help some.

dyer530 - If you would like to create a social group that would be fine. I really don't know how to do that. If you would post how to get to it after it is created, that would be great.

I would also ask the dr. I can't remember how long after I was banded that I started eating popcorn. If the dr. does say it's ok or you just decide to go for it, I would try to eat some at home first so that if it doesn't agree with you, you will be at home, not in the movie theater bathroom. It would really suck to miss the movie.

I've added all the new responder. Let's all stay motivated. I worked out on my wii fit for 30 min. again today. I'm so proud of myself.

Thanks Sandi1011 and that is a good idea. Let all weigh in and report our official weight loss once a week on Mondays. Good luck everyone. I started using my wii fit again today. I forgot how good exercise can make you feel. I might actually do it again tonight.

So far we have 17 people up for the challenge. Here is a list of everyone and there goals. Let me know if I mess anyones up:tongue_smilie:. I'll try to keep it updated.

Mina-Bandit, I did the same thing over halloween, gained 2lbs. from all the candy. We'll work together to get it off. To post an update, just reply to the thread again. Good Luck!

Welcome to the challenge everyone. We are going to have to encourage and motivate each other to accomplish theses goal, but we can do it. I plan to stop snacking and start exersicing on my wii fit at least 30 minutes a day. Lets all keep in touch and I can't wait to see status updates. Good Luck Everyone!!!

Just wnodering how everyone is doing? In the 7 1/2 months that I've had my band I have lost 48 lbs. It seems a little slow, but I feel great. I don't think that I am at my sweet spot yet, but maybe with the next fill. Hopefully the weight will come off steadily, instead of 5-7 lbs. in one week and then nothing for the next 4 or 5. That gets kind of discouraging, although there are probably some things that I could do better to help with that. I even bought new jeans today and they were a size 13 in juniors. They were a little tight but it want be long before they are perfect. Hope everyone else is doing well. I would love to hear how things are going with everyone else. Good luck!

Thanks for the reply. And Congrats to everyone. You have all done great! Can't wait to hear about what others have to say, not that I compare my self with others. Just like to hear how others are doing.

I want to start ttc at the beginning of the year. I have an IUD and was wondering when should I get it removed? Thanks for your replies.

I am not expecting yet, but plan to start trying at the beginning of the year. If we have a boy, his name is probably going to be Korben. I just don't know what to put with it. The only name I found that I kinda like is Korben Alexander. Do you like this? Any other suggestion? Thanks

I lost a total of 2.5 lbs this week. And I go for my 3rd fill this afternoon. Hopefully more restriction and less dieting.

I should have also mentioned that our last name is Blanks. I think I like Hudson the best also, but my husband said that it doesn't sound good with Blanks. He really like Korben. He got that from the movie the 5th Element. I guess we really have plenty of time to figure it out. Thanks for the opinions.
