Lap Band Losers Summer Challenge Final Weigh-In

Hey everybody,

I was tracking mine along the way and I finished at 200 pounds and 4514 minutes exercised.  Count me in for the next one.

Count me in for the next challenge and what will he name of it be.  I am good for 300 minutes a week, been doing alot more lately.

Diane, you are the exercise queen!  4514 minutes,that is awesome! I will put you down for the next challenge.

I haven't been on the website in the last few weeks I am interested in the next challenge....how do I sign up?

Thanks!

Just let me know what your exercise goal is for this first week, we will go from Monday to Sunday.  I will make another post tonight with all the details.

Thanks my current weight is 212 and I want to be in "onederland" by October 1st so that is 12,5/13 pound weight loss by the end of the month.   Do you need to indicate the amount of exercises in minutes that you plan to accomplish each week?  If so I would like to do an hour a day/5 days a week so that would equate to 300 minutes a week. so far this week I hav worked out 120 hours (Monday and Tuesday.

Am I on the right track????

I'm not sure what my beginning weight was, but I did meet my mini-goal of being under 200.  As of Sat, I was at 198!!  So I'm definently in for the next challenge, it helped me so much!  I'd say my exercise was at 180 mins this week. 

I went for my fill this week, and strangely enough, I am still not at restriction with 10.5 in a 11 cc band.  He said if this was still the case, we would do whatever it's called to make sure it hasn't slipped.  Otherwise, he said that it may be that I may require MORE than the manufacturer's recommended 11cc.  So I don't know what to think or what to expect.  Very strange.  I'm bumming that my band is up to something.  I'm hopeful that it will all be alright.

Thanks for leading us through the fight!

That is strange.  I don't mean this to sound rude, but are you sure you don't have a 14cc band?  Hopefully nothing is wrong.  I have heard of some people with 8.75cc in a 10cc band. I have a 10cc band and have 7.25cc in it and can barely eat much!  But then everyone's body is different.  I wish you luck!  You did great for someone without restriction!

Hey Kristy..

I had to work too which sucked because it was my usual day off but the overtime pay will be nice..i didn't weigh in last week because I didn't see the post until Friday..I weighed in at 353..I exercised 210 minutes..I'm definitely in for the next challenge..300 is my exercise goal incase you didn't see my post from the other day. Talk to you soon.

I promise to be on top of it for this challenge.  yeah, I don't mind working the holiday, it's double pay & a half for me, heck I'll work every holiday!  I will update your info.  Glad you joined the next challenge!
