Not much change for me, either, MOM. At 182. -0.5 pound...

174 lbs today...had fill on Thursday and no meat will stay down. Feel like I should be the weight of a stick!

Wom, Mim, great loss for the week! I know the fill has been a little challenging, but it sure is great the see the results!

lisalee, I know what you mean about NSVs. They are really much more important than a number on the scale. Just knowing that I'm making progress has taken a load off my shoulders. I think I was in a low-level depression for many months (years?), and I've pulled out of that. I don't know if it's the weight loss, the fact that I'm getting better nutrition, or a combination of both, but it seems like my mind is clearer, colors brighter, and it seems a little easier to face problems and stop procrastinating.

Mom, I'm down 2 more pounds this week.

Good luck to all of you for a great week!

Tami

Hi,

Weigh in 241.6 yeah! Getting better since fill on thursday!

[kareyquilts 1]

Monday. Time to report. I lost 3.5 pounds last week. Yeah!

:biggrin1: Tami, yes I agree about procrastinating. I see something that needs to be done and do it. No more sleeping at all hours of the day just because it's the only thing that feels good (which made me feel worse.) Somehow that melancholy or indifference is slowly dissipating.

MOM, I had a fill last week and weighed in at 213 this morning. I still can't believe it. I am not feeling a lot of restriction after fill #2 but something is working. I am at a 25 pound weight loss now, 25% of my weight loss goal. WOW, what a feeling. I wasn't sure I would ever get here.

I think I can see a light at the end of the tunnel...or wait, maybe it's a train?!

MOM

Still the same, no weight loss. Kind of stuck right now. Doc wouldn't fill

me 2 weeks ago (2nd Fill), said weight loss was on track. Now it has stopped. Go back in 21st Nov. Definitely need a fill. Hungry all the time.

[gonnabethin 10]

I unfortunately have now experienced the big three- golfball, sliming and PB.

The golfball from eating too fast about every 4 days- eeks im gonna learn!!

Sliming only ONCE- that was enough!! It was from a TENDER pork chop that a well chewed piece got stuck. WOW pain!! And 10 minutes of sliming!!!

PB- ONCE- tonight- from eating too fast. The golfball hurt then PB relieved it. Not nearly as gross as I had feared.

I am really wondering IF I should get the fill tomorrow- I havent learned to S l o w d o w n!!! A fill will make it worse!! As a human- man on man am I hard headed!!

I feel like a bandster toddler learning how, when, and why to eat!!!

Hi MOM,

I lost 1# for this week. Had my second fill last Tuesday and still don't feel much restriction!?!? So I scheduled another one for 11-28-06. Hope I get it right this time around. But I have had some wicked awsome NSV's! I put on my winter coat and I could ZIP the thing with room to spare!

[BJean 16]

MOM: I'm down 1 lb. for the week. Not exciting since I got a second fill on Thursday and hoped I'd feel more restricted this time.

Ok kiddos,

I seem to have problems with tracking, If you can please check your name and see if I am on track.

Please post your weight loss not your current weight, it would surely help in the tracking progress and keep me from having to add and subtract every week. I would truely be at your mercy!

Example: This week a loss of -2lbs or -5 lbs instead of I weight 213 this week, Thanks for your help in advance, and keep up the awsome work!

WE are in Week Number 5, unless you joined post beginning of challenge.
