The "Banded Bitches" Shirts worn at the meet & greet are for sale for those who are interested. They are going for $20. Get you own logo in the front and in the back, you will have your youtube name and the amount of weight loss.

I forgot to mention that even if we were on a mini vacation, we still exercised! We did a 4 mile walk/jog up and down the entire strip. Others did a big hike. We are all amazing and still doing what we have to do while having fun. Some of the things I learned about myself in this journey is that I am very determined. No matter if I dont have restriction and I overate and gained, I always manage to have the will power to bring my weight back down. It takes a lot of focus and setting goals and strict dieting to pull yourself back together. Thats how I got this far. I dont care if there is no restriction, I will always do my best to maintain my weight. 8 lbs was by far the most I ever gained and I beat myself up mentally thinking how Im going to bring my weight down. I misjudge myself a lot and I have thoughts of regaining the weight all back and not being able to maintain but the truth is, I CAN DO THIS! I will never gain my weight back. Exercise & Dieting is always the key! 7 Pound loss this week. (From 163 to 156)

Hay girl. I have to catch up on your vids chica. Than so much for all the comments lately and for the shout out. You are so sweet! Now that im excercising w/ the ab circle, it really tones my arms. Its a great workout for the tummy and arms.

[MsChandra1980]

You'll take it off! You are so motivated. I'm sure it was nice to enjoy regular food after all this time.

[skymoon1982]

It sure was great to eat regular food for a change. After 1 year of dieting, we miss out on so much. Im happy I enjoyed myself for that little bit but now its time to get back on track.

Hi Melanie! Glad u got back on track!! I really need to do the same and lose those pounds from Vegas!! I always seem to take a while getting back, but i signed up for a 5k on the 14th so i better get my butt in gear!!! {{hugs}}} viki

[skymoon1982]

Dont stress it girl. U will get back in the game. All I can say is start training now for that 5k cause its no joke. When I did mine, I felt like I was going to die. LOL. I did it though and never stopped. I wanna do another one soon too.

[Barbara9511]

you go girl...you deserved it..now you will re focus and get back on track we all have faith in you !!You are the best !!!

8 lbs in 3 days sounds like fluid retention, I retain fluid and if I don't take my lasix I can gain 10 lbs in a week. Glad you got back on track, been watching your vids and you have done great and are an inspiration to me because we were the same hieght and weight when you began your journey. I lost 32 so far post op and am stuck at the same weight for two weeks.

[Rina528]

Im not banded yet (4-21-10) Yay! Everyone videos are great. I'm still not sure if Im going to do one or not yet.

[ladyjedi]
