Well I'm going down, but it's slow going. I think losing 8.8 pounds in the next week is problably impossible. LOL Oh, well onward and down.

I squeeked out one pound since last week. Sort of in a stall ( again). Doing my usual day of liquids (today) when that happens. Fill next week, still can't get the fill right, yet.

My original challenge goal was 184 and I changed it to 182 midstream, since end of challenge is before my fill, not sure I will make revised goal, but overall scale continues to go in the right direction.

Good Luck everyone!

Can't tell you what happened this week but I am down 6lbs and I only had my fill yesterday. I can't figure this band out. Up and down like a yo-yo. But no complaints here.

Have a great day everyone!

Cindy

Slowly moving...I'll probably miss 2 days of exercise....having an ingrown toenail removed for the second time. Hopefully that won't
stall me.

Good Luck everyone

I work extremely hard this week to make sure I lost weight or at lease not gain anything. My fear is that I am going to gain since I have no restriction. My next fill is not until March 26.

Well this little NN piggy is too scared to weigh herself. I lost 4 lbs on this challenge and something clicked and I've gone back to eating lots of rubbish so not sure if I've put any back on. Talk about self sabotage. I'm still exercising but I am able to eat normal amounts of food. I'm going for another fill on Wednesday and not sure if I should go crazy and ask for 1cc which will bring me up to 8cc in a 10cc band. Your thoughts would be much appreciated.

I think 1cc is too much at this point. It's amazing what a difference .5ccs can make! You sure don't want to get overfilled and maybe end up having to have even more taken out due to swelling and/or irritation.

It sounds like some of your struggle is choosing the right foods. How about allowing yourself a guilt-free treat each day as a reward for sticking to better foods the rest of the day?

Good luck, Sis! I really think you're almost there!

Well, I have been working my butt off since last week. At the gym, setting up for the 3D archery tourney today, then shooting the tourney today... I may not make it down 9 pounds in a week, but I am still happy with my loss. I had a fill on Wednesday... oooh. WOW! I am still VERY TIGHT!!! I have a sliming experience almost every time I eat something that is not soup. I may just make my goal anyway! Who knows...

I have 8cc in my 10 cc band. With my last fill I told her I thought that I was pretty close to the sweet spot. It's so odd. My scales aren't necessarily going down, but my clothes sizes are. What's even odder is that I'm really not exercising like I should. I won't complain though.
