AngieB Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Carrie - Yay girl the 240's are looking good in my rear view mirror! I don't feel bad about it, not one bit! Great report! Sabrina! Happy one year! You look great and are such an inspiration! Ahh 160's that has a nice ring to it! LOL Debbie - WOW! 5 lbs! You have to be doing the happy dance! Before long you will be buzzing right by me, if I am lucky I might see a blur of light. I have to say it was so nice to step on the scale this morning. I didn't have to avoid it.....

suzpars Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Okay, I made it to Wed. without weighing. LOL, I just started the wait to Wed. challenge yesterday and it was hard. Anyway I am 171 this morning, this is the lowest I have been since 1996. Very happy. I would love to lose at least 5 lbs by Christmas when we go skiing. I can't imagine even trying to ski at the weight I was this time last year. My hubby calls me his 3rd wife. The first when I was very thin when we got married, second very heavy, and now on the road to thin again. He also calls me his trophy wife. LOVE IT! He's been so great this year, as I've been on the lap band journey. Have a great day everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been so great this year, as I've been on the lap band journey.Have a great day everyone. I love the "Wait Till Wednesday Challenge," sorry to hear it was hard to walk by the scale, but.....kinda glad too cuz it was hard for me too. To top that off, because I was not weighing in....I was thinking about it more! OMgoodness! I am ready to break this habit, it is far to comsuming! I "sorta" feel bad cuz I get an extra weigh in next week. I go to the Dr on Monday for my fill and they weigh me there. Hey I am a bit over the top right now. I know. One thing though is there scale weighs me heavier....so I guess it is actually a wash....who needs there scale anyway.......right?! Ha just joking around here. Congrats on your great success and good luck on the 5 lb goal! Do you have any pictures up? I'd love to see some inspiration. I am such a visual person.

Kristi Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Good Morning all, Today is a nice day already. My scale read 148. Yippee, and that means I have hit the 90 pound loss!!! yay!!! :girl_dance: Angie, I am so proud of you for avoiding the scale. I have been trying to do that too, it is hard. Really Hard... Sabrina, Happy Bandaversary!! :lb21: Make sure to write a post about all the changes in the last year, (if you haven't already) I love to read those. BTW- you look awesome! Carrie, I understand about the sweets. I ate so much this T-day. Ugh... Although now I am kinda sweeted out. Maybe thats a good thing. LOL... Debbi- You are doing so great with your Band!

IrishRN Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Looks like everyone had a good week regardless it was a Holiday. I am down too. Finally weighed in at 179.6! Have a great week everyone! Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogiesmom Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Debbie - I have said this before and I will say it again. You are my inspiration! We have the exact same band and we both have not had a fill yet. You are amazing and I know if you can do it I can do it too! When I saw that you lost 5 pounds this week in your signature the other day I wanted to throw you a parade! I have a feeling it is because you eat the same things every day and stick to the basics but this is just a theory on my part Anyway my plateau that lasted one week is finally over! I lost 0.8 Ponds this week going from 177.3 to 176.5! I also go the answer to this strange plateau! My TOM came a few days early! This is amazing since I usually gain but did not this time! Congrats to everyone fighting the good fight, to those who have managed to stay away from the scale, to those who have lost and to those who have maintained.

RevyD Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 OK MISS DEBBIE!!! - What is your secrete ...WOW you are doing AWESOME!!! Congrats to you~!Suzpars- Great Job! Thanks. No real secret . I am following the OCC instructions to the tee. I also exercise 7 days a week for 30-40 minutes of cardio and do bands every second day. At work I take the stairs all the time and no elevator anymore No junk food at all, and barely any carbs. I am a woman with a mission. I want to take my kids to disneyland next October so I am bound and determined to be at my goal by then. I will tell you one thing. There is no way I could do this without all of your support, and encouragement. I read this forum at least 3-4 times a day , look at the pictures etc. So thanks for noticing and the words of encouragement. You have done amazing and are one of my inspirations Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhawkchick75 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Congrats everyone - great week!!! I am down 1.8 this week, which puts me .2 away from where I was before my unfill so I am happy about that. Although I have eaten absolutely terrible today! I'm gonna go after work and get in a good workout to work some of it off. I had a goal to really up my water this week and I failed miserably there. Gonna make that my goal this week as well as to continue getting back on track with working out. Worked out twice last week which was a good start, but not good enough need to get on track!

bogiesmom Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Angie, No fair making me laugh, want to cry , pee my pants and mess up my makeup all at the same time Very sweet of you. Shelby, 1.8 is fantastic and you are almost there! I am glad i found a WW buddy. Debbie, what can I say. Another 3 pounds! You rock as usual and I will be the first paid member/subscriber to the webinars you hopefully someday will host. Carrie, keep fighting the good fight as my theory is sometimes our bodies loose water, gain muscle and loose inches and it takes a few days for the scale to catch up (sssshhhh, don't tell anyone but I have a gut feeling that next week's weigh in is going to be one of those for me since it is my first week back on solids and my first week excercising in over a year).
