How low can you go in 09 weightloss challenge#1

[Florida Pete 1]

Hey All - I have been terrible about posting this last month. Sorry about that. I updated my weights on the spreadsheet. Hope everyone is doing well. I lost 2 pounds this last week.

It's been difficult and slow...but i'm down to 246.

[annjones 3]

Oh and I will set my May goal for 243. I want to go conservative this month because things have been going really slow!

Better late than never?

surgery date: 12/23/08

heighest weight: 285

preop diet starting weight: 280 (no preop diet)

surgery weight: 269 lbs

current weight: 195 lbs

weight loss since surgery: 74lbs

total weight loss: 85 lbs

my end goal is to be: 140 lbs

Goal for the rest of the month 5 lbs

Workin with a band that is a bit to tight right now (not so bad it is a crisis). But due to how far away from the Dr I am and not being able to miss work (school teacher), can't get an unfill till 5/29.

Hey all - dropped another 4 pounds this week. Actually a little surprised but very happy about it. Hope everyone else is having a great week.

Not much loss for me. I gained a pound the first week, then lost 2, but these have been the same couple pound for the last month.

I am going in for a check today. I don't want a fill because I am already too tight in the am. But by dinner, I am a hungry bottomless pit! I consume about 300 up until dinner time, then about 1000! It can't be good to get all your energy right before bed...

Hopefully they can help today. Keep up the good work everyone!

Glad I went in yesterday! Asked for 1/2 cc fill and lost 3 lbs from yesterday to today. YEAH! It might be short lived, due to being on fluids for 24 hours, but I take what I can get!

Great to see how you are all doing! Haven't posted since December. Had six fills since then (I had to get more than 10ccs in a 10 cc band before it worked at all) but now Ive had three months of it working. I feel like Im about 2-3 months behind now, but down 35 from surgery on 12/9 (from 220-185). Goal is 175 by the 4th of July.

Way to go Pete!!
