i GO TO zUMBA - That is fun -but depending what gym you go to can be a bit crowded- but most people go in and dance (weather on beat or not) and have fun..and sweat. I also tak Spin 2-3 times a week- rough the 1st time but burn alot of calories and most teachers tell you take it at your pace and they help you set up the…

So it is not extreme but it's down. LW:188.5 CW:188.1 GW:175 Finally heading back to the gym today so hopefully that # will drop by next week! Happy Thursday!

Hello Ladies - HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO !!:drinker: Ncole1 -I will be first to admit I weigh in daily in the AM and most of the time I doing ok. I do it more to mentally let me know that I am doing ok and haven't drastically changed overnight. Today I dropped a bit but I think it's cause I didn't eat too much yesterday - home…

Hello and welcome. I got banded 10-5-09 and as today am 70.5lbs down. I was told the band wasn't going to be a quick fix it is a tool and that is what I have used it as. I workout 3-4Xweek and eat smarter now. Hardly have soda and try to limit the carbs. Now coming from a latin home pan and rice are a big deal but in…

Wow - alot to read and catch up on. So today I hit a milestone and hit that 70 pound mark :noway: :blushing: So excited. Yesterday I hit the gym for Spin 1hr class and then I jumped into Zumba for a 1/2 hours - so today I woke up ready to go! I am glad to hear your uncle is okay ..I was reading about that and I pray for…

Found you. Woo hoo! Was I supposed to weigh in on Friday the 16th? I was 192 - the same I am now.:grumble: I missed Heather's challenge for the 4xwk workout - I only did 2x last week only because it has been a hectic weekend. Normally though I make it my mission to go workout 4Xwk. The sit up challenge - is to do 200 at…

It's tough I am so with you. Everyday I am telling my husband that I look fat in something or other and the he reminds me that I have lost 65lbs and even though I have more to go I look good and need to start feeling good. Do you know what helped me a bit? Comparing pictures of me before and after because once I was out of…

I got banded 10/5/09 and as of today am down 63.5 lbs -I'm on just liquids as we speak cause I just got .5CC put in. It's been great and what a change in my lifestyle. I used to do nothing now I hit the gym 3-4 times a week. Prepare and cook healthier meals for my family. :bigsmile: Congrats on your decision and many of us…

I love it but sadly the gym I go to packs in WAY too many people - I had to leave in 1/2 hour because NO ROOM :mad: - folks came late and squished in all around me:explode: . If I had to stretch out my arms I was going to hit the person next to me:embarassed: . Frustrating and I didn't want to hit nobody so I went to the…

Any surgery is scarey but this is one of those that really the band is a tool and you need to be ready to commit and work on it!! I was banded Oct 09 and have lost 62 pounds and i work hard to keep the weight away. I have more to lose and there is a great group on women on here that are supportive(bandsters), helpful and…

Sorry it's for the Old Navy Clothing Store - you make yourself into a mannequin. If you win you get made into a new store mannequin and get $$.

I love shopping but don't have the budget to keep up with the weight loss. SOOO thrift stores are my new Best Friend- I find some great stuff including stuff with tags and then spend less than like $15 for 7 things so when I "outsmall" everything I don't feel bad sending it back to the thrift store or Goodwill as long as…
