[mary on a mission 0]

Hi Everyone!

Was still plateaued last week. Got my 2nd fill (finally - 5 months after banding!). So far, it is helping. Of course, a couple of days on liquids never hurts, right?

Anyway, finally down some. 3.5 pounds this week.

Starting weight 233

Today's weight 191

I am ready to recharge that motivation battery! :thumbup:

Good Morning everyone!

I hate to say this, because I don't want to jinx myself, but I think the band is doing what it's supposed to - finally! I am not able to eat as much, and I don't get hungry often. I still get stuck more than I like, but I think it's that 1st bite syndrome. Hopefully that will go away soon.

Anyway, here it is:

Starting weight: 233

This week: 188.5

Not going to make my goal by year end, but I'm ok with it. I made that plan before my 2 month long plateau.

Hope everyone has a great Monday.:willy_nilly:

Hi everyone!

Good Monday Morning Everyone!

I only lost 1/2 pound this week, but I'm ok with it. I see the band working. Unfortunately, I didn't work the band so much this week.

Funny how we find ourselves slipping into old habits sometimes... We had 6 inches of snow this weekend. I know for many of you that's no big deal, but it's a huge deal here. We get a dusting to an inch or two once or twice a year, so the whole world shuts down when we get significant snow. Anyway, all families have their traditions, and one of ours is junk food when it snows. Additionally, I am a caterer and this is my busy season. We lost a couple of events on Friday due to the snow. Now I can't say I'm too upset about that, as I have worked 60-70 hour weeks all month, and my husband and sons took off to Orlando to see my daughter, who won't be home for Christmas. So, I was all alone and completely exhausted. I didn't leave the house from Friday night to Sunday morning. I didn't even take off my pajamas.

Now I didn't do as badly as I could have, but I did find myself eating constantly. I craved bad food. Fortunately, we didn't have a lot of bad food in the house, but I did have a hard time. So, all that to say that losing a half pound this week is not so bad. I'm back to work and back to reality today.

I need to develop some tactics to combat those urges next time. I think I was just too exhausted to fight too hard. Any suggestions would be appreciated.:ohmy:

On another note, I did get my Christmas shopping done yesterday. Took a lot of determination, but I got most of it done. Yay!:thumbup:

Starting weight 233

Current Weight 188

Merry Christmas to you all!

2 weeks ago: 188

today: 188

Back to being diligent...no more junk in the house, back to regular work schedule, back to losing weight. I haven't been able to eat much, so it must be that I am eating the wrong stuff...:thumbup:

I have joined the valentine's weight loss challenge and will get to 175 by valentine's day. :blushing:

Have a good Monday, everyone.

Well, as of last Tuesday, my band/port is now fixed. Doctor told me he put 3 cc's in the band. So i guess I'm starting all over again with fills.

In any case, here is where I'm at now as I try to get in gear again....

surgery wt: 244.7

todays wt: 233.6

2010 is the year....i had hoped to hit the 40# mark before now...so many of you have so surpassed that (sigh)....but I'm again on my way.

Happy New Year to all!

[Who'sThere 331]

Well, it has been a while since I've been on here. My second job has taken up so much time, but I quit that, so here I am again.

Starting weight: 283

Surgery weight: 270

Current weight: 228

The scale flirted with 227 this morning, but I weighed again (I always weight twice to make sure it's accurate) and it was 228. So, I weighed a third time and it was 228 again. Oh, well, it will come!
