less-of-me 2 Posted October 16, 2009 well for the 3rd week in a row im battling the same 2 pounds up and down. ever since my last fill I have absolutly no restriction. I feel like I am hungry all the time. I am working out every other day running on the treadmill..then on sat I go with a friend and hike some of the hardest mountains in phoenix. I thought with doing all this I would be down a few pounds, but no such luck. Thankfully tuesday I go in for my 3rd fill. I really hope that helps. Ann-I hear you stomach here in phoenix and mine is answering back...listen and you can hear it say....feed me!!!! But I am trying to hold strong! congrats to all this week weather you lost, maintained, or gained a little. We are all working toward the same goal on this journey. Keep strong and heres to a great next week loss!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John337 2 Posted October 19, 2009 John, you are doing great! I think I thought you were a golfer because of your ticker. lol You certainly get a lot of exercise in. That's fantastic. How much do you walk each day? I just bought a membership to the rec center, so I'm starting up my Water walking/jogging again. BTW, that's cool that you have a 55 Chevy. Would love to see a picture of it sometime!! :thumbup: Hi Ann - At work, I try and walk 20 minutes during lunch. 3-4x at night I go to the gym. 10 min warm up on the eliptical machine ( heart rate 100), 30 min weights, 20 minutes on the treadmill ( H/R 130). I'll email you a link to view the oics of the 55 Chevy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rguay 0 Posted October 23, 2009 This is my third week without weight loss. Bummer. I talked with the Medical Director where I work yesterday (who is also banded). She said it is just the metabolism catching up, or adjusting. Maybe so, but it is still frustrating. Hope next week is great for everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpideyMom 1 Posted October 23, 2009 Congratulations, everyone! :w00t: Another great week for the mayo Banditos! Rebecca, don't worry, the numbers will drop again. I bet if you took your measurements now you would notice a difference in those numbers! John, good job at maintaining! Good luck with your port replacement on Monday. We'll be thinking of you. Hope your recovery is easy and swift. Please come on here as soon as you can and let us know that you're all right. :smile: Way to go, Linda! Welcome to Onederland! Isn't it onederful??? :closedeyes: Love the picture. Like the new picture, Sassysara. Very cute. :smile: Here's to any pound down!!! I lost 3.5 lbs this week, which is a net loss of 0.5 lbs because I had gained 3 lbs. last week. I was so glad to see those leave! They left with their friends (not mine) TOM and Flo. lol Have a great weekend, everyone!!! :smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tulsarealtorgb 0 Posted October 23, 2009 Congrats Linda. What a great feeling! I came down 1.5 pounds this week, but it was a work in progress over the last few weeks. Down to 176 now. I can't wait for my 2nd fill on Monday. Hopefully that will get me going faster again. GB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
