Weight loss totals for the December bunch?

[dietpeach 0]

Do you guys want to keep track of our weight loss? We can all post our band date and how much we've lost since surgery (not including pre-op, since some people have 6 month pre-ops and others have none at all).

If anyone knows how to do a spreadsheet they can post in in a spreadsheet. (Sorry guys, I have no clue how.) We can periodicaly update the list from time to time. I think it would be interesting to see how different people are doing as the year goes by. Or we could just keep a running total and always copy and paste the list into your reply, changing only your own weight loss.

What do you think?

ETA: Why not, we can also include pre-op weightloss, as a separate category, since so many pre-ops might look to us to see what they can expect on their pre-op diets. (Doesn't hurt to be helpful.)

Name:

Band date:

Weight lost pre-op: (on the pre-opdiet)

Weight lost since banding:

Total weight lost:

Name: dietpeach

Band date: 12/5/08

Weight lost pre-op: 20 lbs

Weight lost to date: 20.5 lbs

Total weight lost: 40.5 lbs

See, then you can add your own to the list by copying and pasting.

I know many December bandsters will have small numbers since it's only February, especially those banded the last week of December. (I was banded the first week, so I've lost a bit more.) But if we start tracking now we can have a nice record through the year.

Welcome to our little corner dietpeach. We actually already have a spreadsheet going and I'd be happy to add your info. We are also doing a monthly challenge on the same spreadsheet if you want to participate just let us know. The link to the spreadsheet is in my signature ~ How low can you go....

the info we have is

highest weight

preop diet starting weight

surgery weight

current weight

then it tracks you total weight lost along with weight lost since surgery.

then on the monthly challenges

we ask for goal you want to lose for the month (ie: 10 lbs)

and your starting weight and then you weigh once a week and we've been posting that on this thread

Thanks for the welcome. I guess I've been MIA from this board. That's good - it means I've bneen busy enjoying life with my band. LOL Glad to know there already is a spreadsheet. I looked to see if there was already one going, but I didn't see it. (I didn't think to look in the challenge thread.)

Anyway, you can add my data if you want, but a challenge thread demands more of a day-to-day ongoing commitment to a group, and I don't have time for it unfortunately. Would it be okay to pop in one every month or so to update my numbers, even if I can't commit to the challenge?

Banded 12/17/08.

I am down 45 lbs. Been hanging here for 2 weeks.

I walk with Leslie Sansone 3-5 times a week and do Caribbean workout the other days.

As I tell everyone. It's not about how I look. It's about how

I feel...and I feel fantastic.

Banded 12/19/08.

I've lost 65 pounds as of this morning. No fills yet. I have to admit, I haven't been exercising, but I know I need to start. Other than that, I've been doing exactly what I'm supposed to do and feel great.

Banded: 12/19/2008

Starting weight: 215

Current Weight: 169

Total Weight Loss: 46 lbs.

I just now had my 2nd fill and now have 4.6 cc in my band. I have had a super long road. I had 2 surgeries since my lap band so I havent been able to be filled nor do exercises, so Im really proud of myself for managing to still lose some weight since these surgeries. It sure looks like everyone else is doing a fantastic job as well. Keep up the awesome work everyone...
