March Bandsters: MASTER THREAD



Recommended Posts

Hopeinapril - my WL has been like yours. Mine is finally starting to kick in!! I have been thrilled with it! I always show a loss when I go to the doctor, small ones, but it is better than gaining!! I started exercising too which helps and I feel better!!

I plan to receive my 2nd fill a week from this Friday. I hope after that my weight loss will kick back in. Right now I fight for every 1/2 lb then gain and lose it several times before I lose it for good.

Hi Shamrocks - I passed my PMP exam for my job today that I was studying for, and stressing over too, and now that is such a relief. I have to just keep up with continuing education to keep it current. Thanks for the well wishes and prayers.

P.S. It is fun seeing some of you adding to the Why we want Fenton back.

Congratulations special K..a load off of your mind I'm sure. Test taking is such a strain for everyone. I've had students who have physically gotten ill when needing to be validated!!!

Harley love the tatoo!!! My daughter has quite a few (much to her father's dismay) but I always applauded her tasteful choices along with her "balls" to get them....I know if I was younger I'd have a few :omg_smile:....

Congratulations SpecialK I know that test meant a lot to you! I am so happy that you made it.

Congratulations HopeinApril! In the beginning of this journey I felt like everyone was passing me by, but once I hit that sweet spot things became so much easier. Congratulations on hitting that point.

Hi All---

I have found that as my weight loss has slowed down -- I'm not losing my hair anymore. And I'm also finding that as the weather here in the Northeast is getting cooler --- I'm FREEZING!! Are other people finding these things to be true too???

You know, they say you shed a lot more hair during the summer, so now that we're past that, I wonder if that's part of the reason it seems less drastic lately. Of course, this would only be true for those of us in the Northern hemisphere, I guess.

That reminds me, where's AnnieDub? I was wondering how she's liking her sassy short hair now that she's had some time with it. I just cut my hair much shorter than it's been in years, and I'm finding it weird. Of course, she's probably too busy flirting with and seducing all the young men in Australia! Am I jealous? Yeah! :rolleyes2:

Speaking of those missing in action, where is BrandNewLisa and NurseNiki?? I loved putting together the list of March Bandsters when it was way over 200 in March 2008 and I'd love to hear from a broader group on how they are doing but even if not, I love this core group since we are all hitting the same snags as well as sharing successes in step with each other.

Hi Shamrocks!

Today I was 249.6 YEAH!!!!!!!! :unsure::biggrin:

Karen - nice to know there are others of us out there. I am so thrilled right now. I finally believe this will work!!

Penny - I have heard that without the fat insulating us that many are colder, quicker. I believe that. I will be thrilled to buy cute sweaters and jackets! Of course, I expect to find a cute guy to cuddle also! :drool:

Losing my hair like crazy here! I've thought about going short, but my hair is so curly, it will look crazy for sure!

Congratulations Amanda for making it to the halfway point. I hope to be there by my 6 month point....I have a couple of weeks to get there.

I would love to set a goal for being 60 pounds down by the 24th. Let's see if I can do it.

Hopein April...congrat on getting under 250! I am so happy for you. I love crossing over into a new weigth point. I can't wait to get out of the 230's.

I too miss many of our March Bandsters. If you are out the post an update.

Christine

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
