Slow Losers - Unite!

[live2canoe 1]

Vines - I'll be the Mama - you be our Spokes Model!

Let's see 1/4 of a pound is what - 4 ounces? (16 ounces ina pound, right?) You are WAY ahead of me with your super duper 5.8 ounces a week.

I like the atomic unit thing - too bad I'm not smart enough to figure all that out. I don't think I'll go for the Stones idea( I have to admit, I've never heard of Sacks!) If I remember right, isn't a stone the equivalent of 16 pounds? If I'm losing 1/4 of a pound, that's only 1/64th of a stone! Too depressing. We have to go use the atomic units, or troy ounces or something like that.

Hey candy - our posts crossed.

Your math is right. You are losing an average of .4 pounds a week.

I have not kept track of how many members the slow losers have now. We should do a roll call.

Smart move not keeping a scale in the house!

I have a 'small band'. A 9.75 cm band with a 4.00 cc capacity.

0 ccs in my ghost band... Anyone know where I can get a fill for a ghost band?!?! lol

I'm here, I'm here. I got a fill. .75 cc's. I can already feel that I'm way more restricted. Here's hoping it works!

Megan -

Old Wise One of the Group!

Congrats on your two year bandiversary (and you thought we wouldn't notice!)

I'm happy you got your fill. Let us know how that works out for you.

Oh you guys!! I LOVE the Turtle Power and Turtle Spokes Model stuff. It's great. If I ever get my band, perhaps I will join your Turtle-riffic group.

:]

Going for a slight tweak in my band this weds. oct. 19 - thinking maybe .2 or .3 - although maybe i should cancel it - i have ok restriction - I don't keep scales in the house - but i have noticied a NSV - my shirts are getting looser!! Not my pants yet - but yes my shirts are definately a little looser. i guess I should find buy a scale tomorrow to see exactly how much i've lost since my last one - and then I should cancel ? What do you think?

Ooooh, that's a toughie. I have okay restriction, too. It could be better, but I'm trying to make it work. Of course, I pay cash for fills so that definately plays into the equation. The smallest bit can make the biggest difference. I say go for it.

yes I pay cash for fills also that's why i was thinking of holding off since i could use that money to go get my hair & nails done, but then I thought no I need to put my band first and I think I need a tweak to get this to optimum level so I think I might go ahead and do it
