Last week: 202

This week: 198

Loss: 4lbs

HI there,

I am at the same progress as you and finally got some restriction from my 4th fill last Wednesday.

I cannot eat bfast but slowly eating all foods is totally working. Protein shakes is my best way to get Protein in bc I am struggling to get 800 calories a day since Wednesday.

I should totally see some shrinkage now.

I dropped to 226lbs after being at 233lbs for about 2.5 mos.

I was banded on 27 Aug 2008

I am trying to get a ticker tracker but nothing is working for me to get it posted on my posts..

CHER

Gosh you're right, we're almost band twins! Congrats on breaking your plateau! I'm hoping I've broken mine too, I'm actually down 2 more pounds today, a lot for one day so I think I must have been holding onto some fluids yesterday.

To get the ticker just click on anybody's ticker and it will take you to the site. After you make yours it will give you a code to copy, choose user cp at the top, then edit signature on the left side and paste the code in the box. It should show up then.

Yay for onederland ktork! That's so awesome!

No loss this week :wink2:

Didn't get a fill at my last appt either. They are wanting to see how I go for a bit...I feel if I am not at my sweet spot now I will be very shortly.

i know it only 2 days till this wk weigh in but i need to put this down so i kick my self up the ass.

I'm up 4 lbs.....

I've given up smoking -nearly 2 weeks off them:thumbup:. I thought i would be fine because of the band i wouldn't be able to eat. Instead of smoking im hunting down foods i can eat, so after dinner im heading straight for biscuits. in the evening its crisps / chips. Im not a chocolate lover but im eating it for the sake of it.:tongue:

So i got another fill today, i have put on a total of 7lbs since xmas eve.

Im starting afresh from today, no more shit foods.

This is where the will power is needed.....

P.S.

For those who haven't done it...

It is horrible having to add lbs to your tracker..:tongue:

I never want to do that again....

Oh Edel, I'm so sorry that you're struggling. And I have had to add to my ticker. It stinks. And I almost didn't do it. But if I start cheating there, where else will it go? I have to stay accountable even if that means going UP on the ticker. :thumbup:

Congratulations on quitting the smoking. That will be so healthy for you. Your lungs are already healing just in the short time you've quit.

Do you knit, or do puzzles or ??? Maybe take up a new hobby that requires the use of BOTH hands so you can't be snacking with one hand while doing your new hobby with the other! Maybe head outdoors for a walk instead of into the kitchen for a snack. That's all I can think of, sorry!

Hang in there. And good for you for being accountable to yourself and putting it out there. That is half the battle!

Hi Everyone, You guys are all doing great! I am down 36lbs and get my 2nd fill on Feb. 5th! Thank goodness! I have been scheduled and cancelled a couple of times. I'm excercising every other day by walking anywhere from 3 to 5 miles now. That's made a huge difference.

Take care,

Congratulations Edel. You have made another step towards improving your health. I know it is hard but you can do it. I agree with heartfire, try to find something to keep your hands busy or enjoy the great outdoors walking if you can. I will keep you in my prayers. I know how hard it is to change your ticker to a higher number and I hope you can change the direction soon.

edel,

I think that it's hard to quit smoking and quit food (I know because quitting smoking is still one of the hardest things I had to do) so please don't beat yourself up too much. Since you've decided to get back on track, I'm sure that ticker will start to go down again.

ktork, congrats on hitting onederland!!
