Well Pnut.....I am making it easy for you this week! No change here. Stuck on 201 for last 2 days, which is good in a way since I was on my period most of this week and had 2 days of muchies (and seeing 202-205 on the scale). However, I just know that I will break out of the 200s by next weigh in!!!! ONEDERLAND HERE I COME!!!

I gained the four pounds that I lost last week, grrr! I also have my period...which has to amount for something (I hope)! :guess Which brings me to another thing, I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 18. I rarely got a period once or twice a year. I'm now 32 and I got the last two periods on my own without taking provera. I'm on metformin...2000 mg per day since August that still didn't help. Well the Sunday after I got the lap band I got my period, which may not sound like a big deal to most of you but I was thrilled. 30 days later I got my period AGAIN (with the help of metformin), which I'm so happy about. Like I said, this may mean nothing to most of you but I'm more happy about that then losing the weight! In any case I'm going to try and do better next week. Last week was my birthday and I cheated a little bit (maybe a lot).

C 285 (+4)

You are all doing great!! :clap2:

[Tricia K. 0]

C 212 (- 62 lbs. total, - 2 this week)

[dawg 0]

Well, even with the sickness and bad back (and complete inactivity, my metabolism came through and rescued me at the last minute.

C 262.0 (-45.0 total, -1.0 this week)

Now I'm going to continue being a traditional male with a cold and whine lpathetically for the rest of the day.

[PhotoNut 7]

Wow! I'm so thrilled for those who have checked in so far! Even those of you who gained a bit are remaining positive, you understand what's going on and are keeping yourselves on track. I'm very proud of everyone.

Part of the key to success is having this group to share our victories and our struggles. So if you're slipping, get your butt on here and tell us so we can encourage you. Sometimes all it takes is to come out in the open with it to start turning things around. Don't hide alone in your frustration, ok? Paula spent three weeks feeling like crap about her binges, and when she came to LBT and told everyone what was going on, she was encircled by friends who have helped her get past it. That's what we are ready to do for anyone here. I hope that spoke to someone in the group. Not sure why, but I had a feeling that needed to be said.

So far, Mychevygirl is the big loser this week. Weighing in at -9 pounds! Everyone keep her in your thoughts and prayers. While jumping through the hoops to get her surgery, she is also going through a very hard time with her father who is in the hospital. DeAnn, great job on your loss this week girl!

Gloria37 - very happy to hear your news, that's no small thing!

Txblue_eyedqt - You keep going like youre going and you WILL be cheering in that short skirt before you know it!

NaturalBeauty - Are you doing ok? Do you need an unfill?

Heather - Isn't it funny how what goes around comes around? *grins*

Skbishop - Girl.. you knock em dead at that reunion and we're going to want pictures!!

Mystjin - Youre doing great and getting closer to bandland everyday! To update your ticker, just go back to tickerfactory.com and if it remembers you, all you have to do is update your current weight, click finished (or next) and then recopy the bbCode. If it doesn't remember you, you'll have to make it all over again with your current info.

The best me and Kim8 - Yay both of you for working out! It will pay off! Good luck with that fill today Kimmers. And Kathy, it has to be muscle!

So many of you are on the verge of breaking 100 pound loss, and many of you are so close to Onederland you can taste it. I'm so happy for everyone!

My weigh in this week: C 260 (-47 pounds total, -5 this week) Yeah baby! :rockon:

[Penni60 45]

C = 251 (-45 lbs total) ( -1 for me.)

I posted this yesterday but it got lost in the shuffle. I am thrilled that I went down a pound. WHOO HOO!!!!

[EmileeKaye 1]

C 221 (-5.5) -82 total

I was VERY suprised this morning when I stepped on the scale. All I did different this week was drink tons of Water. I'm so happy! Woo Hoo!

Great job everyone!
