Mayo Banditos / Friday Weigh In !!!!



Recommended Posts

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!!!!

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.:blink:

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!

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!!! :lol:

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:

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

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
