My goal is 15 pounds. That would put me in onederland. I haven't been there for a while as well. Good luck to everyone with their Valentine's Day Weight Loss Challenge/goals.

I started with a 10 lb goal. As of today I'm down 2 lbs, 8 to go. I may even press for a total of 20. The weekends are the hardest for me, with everyone home..

Hi all, just checking in with my monday weigh-in. one is better than none!

I go for my 3rd fill today. I have never felt any restriction at all. I have been banded for 3 months and the weight I have lost has came from dieting. I know that I can't stick to a diet forever, thats why I decided to get banded in the first place. I have dieted really good for the last week and a half and have lost 6 lbs, but before that I set still for about 3 weeks. I am praying for restriction after todays fill. Thanks for listening to me whine and complain. Sorry if I got on anyones nerves.

Pray for me!

I wanted to lose 15, I need to lose 8 more!! woohoo!

[karebare714 14]

I was banded the same day as you. You are doing amazing!!! How many fills have you had and do you know how many cc's? Sorry to be so curious, but I still have no restriction. I had my 3rd fill yesterday. I don't know if it made a difference yet or not because I am still on liquids. Just need a lil inspiration I guess.

Congrats on your weight loss!

I will try to be reasonable with my goal and attempt to lose 10 pounds. The one thing I haven't done is exercise. I have the wii Fit and a gym membership and two feet I can walk on but no exercise....That changes today. I also have a BodyBugg but that's in a drawer. I'm kicking myself in the butt to get motivated. We just have to keep pluggin away!

Current: 185

Goal: 175

I too need a kick in the butt!!!!! My weakness is chocolate, munchies and drinking with meals!! :thumbup: I'd love to loose 10 lbs by Valentines!!! My surgery was 4/12/08, and I've lost around 40lbs. Slow, I know, I have been a bad bander the last few months. Time for a fresh start!!!!
