Ewiedbingcott 9 Posted August 14, 2009 Another 1/2 pound -- woo hoo!!! only 1.9 to go to goal.:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newdicarlo 0 Posted August 14, 2009 OK, so I probably won't make another 10 pound loss in two weeks, but I just broke another plateau, so I'm hoping for at least another 5...I've done 18 since June 1 and that's with a week at the beach, a couple weekends out of town...

wannabthinagain 0 Posted August 17, 2009 one more pound to go to my labor day goal! even more exciting is that that will put me 15 to my goal!! I had lost my motovation lately, and now i'm seeing that even though the pounds are no longer just dropping off easily, i realized i'm steadily going down just at a slower pace. it's much better of it going UP!! I hope this gives me the kick in the butt to kick it in high gear! there are 3 weeks left in the challange. I'm going to make my new goal to get as far into those last 15 pounds that i can! I know the closer to goal, the harder it will be to get them off! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alice0592 0 Posted August 18, 2009 I finally moved had a fill last Thurs.have lost 6 pounds.I hope to lose 10 more by the 7th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wannabthinagain 0 Posted August 21, 2009 woo hoo!! I met my challenge goal today! the weight is definitely coming off slower these days.... Now to see how close i can get to having a 60 pound loss by labor day! when i first was banded I see my goal to have 10 pounds gone for each month banded. I have never NOT made the goal so far...since the weight came off fast in the pre-op and beginning of post-op 9/3 will be my 6 months band date... i would LOVE to have 60 pounds off by then! that means i have 4 pounds to go! i'll have to work HARD for those 4....because they are coming off really slow now... but i'm gonna give it my ALL!

newdicarlo 0 Posted August 21, 2009 Halloween is next, but we should do a Thanksgiving challenge! it's always hard to maintain/lose over the holidays, it would be good to have a goal to work towards... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wannabthinagain 0 Posted August 22, 2009 Congrats to everyone that has already made it to thier goal, and those of you that are working hard at getting to yours!!! Halloween, which is very close to my original goal of making it to my goal weight! My b-day is at the end of Oct., and will be almost 8 months (11-3)from my band date. in the beginning i thought that would be realistic to achieve. i didn't take into account that the last few pounds would go REALLLLLY slow! I'm going to try my best though. I have a PS consult on November 12th and i want to be at goal by then. It is my reward and motivation to work hard at this. I will then have to maintain, or possibly lose more if the surgeon thinks i should. I don't plan to have surgery until March, so i will have 4 months to do so.
