I lost 2.2 pounds last week...wahoo! However, I think I have gained those back during our super bowl party. Lol! I am aiming for my 20 pound goal and I only have 2 pounds to go. I hope this is a good week :)

They had to fix the battery but I feel mine does not work, sure I am down 18 since mid December but I am at the gym every day and eating under 1400 calories a day

ksjoem 02-18-2012 01:56 PM

Mngal, I feel the same way! I losing slowly and keep fluctuating but I too think my weight loss is die to calorie counting. Not too sure this device is working. Oh, my nurse said that when we reach the 6 month point, they will turn up the device again". I hope so!

I'm too fat to see mine! I can feel it though.

mine sticks out quite a bit on the side. Ever see a goat at the petting zoo, with it's stomach sticking out on both sides? I'm like that but only on the left side.
:yikes:

Mine sticks out as well and it is painfully noticeable when I excercise

Boy, you guys are doing good on the weight loss. I keep having trouble sticking to a diet and haven't lost a thing. How is your hunger level?

I'm only doing well because I actually enjoy working out...I used to teach aerobics. I still get hungry but I find that eating the right foods seems to quench it. I have weight watchers deserts for my sweet tooth. The other trick is a protien shake within 30 minutes of excercise, it chases the hunger away

I am new to this site, but I had the V Bloc surgery in Sept and have lost 3 pounds. I didn't get my device turned up at my 6 month visit. Not that it would have mattered as I don't think I am turned on.

ksjoem 04-30-2012 05:41 AM

It has been a while since everyone updated. How is the weight loss? I have really slowed down and I think it's because I only go once a month now. I am holding steady at 30 pounds but have been fluctuating at this point for the last 3weeks. Holla back!!

ksjoem 05-16-2012 05:11 PM

So.....how is everyone doing? I am holding steady with 32 pounds lost. I find it way hard to stay on track...anyone else having issues?
