The Harvest Moon Challenge



Recommended Posts

Good morning everyone. It is Saturday at 8:22 AM. I got up at 5 to get this table completed. Sorry it is late but when my account got deleted I lost all my profile settings and had to get them set up again. Here is the link to the current results. As always if there is a mistake or I left someone out let me know so I can fix it.

Harvest Moon Challenge

As Joan stated earlier one of the most enjoyable thing about this job is that I get to read everyone's posts and read all of their goals and the personal goals are the best. My favorite this month was from Bella Bear.

Great Job Larry! Only critique is that you have the 8th month on the grid instead of the 9th month.

Thank you Larry for your hard work and determination!

Hello,

I went in for a band check today, my band is still slipped but doesn't need surgical repositioning at this time. I'll go in for a recheck in 3 more weeks. The doc took another 1cc out so my band is as empty as possible to help it slip back into place. I made an appt. to see an allergist and have allergy testing a week from Wednesday. I am convinced my band slipped due to my horrendous seasonal allergies, post nasal drip... My doc and NP believe so, too. The doc said that only 2% of bands slip, why me, lol! A fellow band friend went with me to the appt. to get a fill for her band. She said I am so small I don't look like I belong there. ; ) I am taking the whole slipped band situation in stride, what else can I do?

It's good news that you don't have to have another surgery. Here's hoping you can maintain until you can have you band filled again. Good luck and keep us informed.

JulieG (nu2ywg) checking in with no change this week at 211.5. Can't say I'm surprised but I'm a little disappointed. I did great in the fitness department, have been doing more jogging as well as very regular gym time but I'm eating TOO MANY Snacks and Snacks that aren't healthy. So my goal of less snacking has not really come to pass. I have to go somewhat easy on myself though as this is without a doubt a very busy week in a very busy month with the back to school thing still fresh, 2 kids with birthdays, back to school for me (distance college courses), preparing for camping and a family birthday gathering while camping. I have my MRI this saturday too (which I will drive back for then head back to campsite) to investigate my gallbladder issues.

Looks like a some great success for a lot of people this week, congratulations to you!

Good morning, checking in at 261 this morning. That's 4 lbs since last week. Still haven't gotten to the gym yet since I have been busy every night for the last week, but that is a good thing. If I am not at home watching TV I won't snack.

On a side note went to see the movie "Creature" last night with my movie discussion group. Don't see this movie alone, for one thing you will be the only one in the theater and the other you will have no one to laugh with about the ridiculous story line, awful acting, terrible special effects and bad fake Cajun accents. Possible one of the worst movies I have ever paid money to see.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
