Throwing up EVERYTHING I have eaten today???

:thumbup:Somedays I don't know what triggers it? I just can't eat well at all, not even drink well without throwing it all back up. I had to pull off the road today to let it out, and I had a friend with me, it was really embarrassing! Things that I normally do not have any trouble at all with are NOT staying down! I mean this one time today a wave of nausea came over me that I swear I was PREGNANT again, and that ain't EVER happening again! LOL Anyway, Back to the Protein Shake tomorrow and the water, then to soft food and we'll see. Why is it I can digest peanuts and popcorn when nothing else will stay down?:cool2:

High Protein Diet is WORKING!!! Dropped 3.5 lbs in a week!

I decided to follow the Lindora Lean for Life program. Very High Protein to get you into Ketosis in the first three Days, then introduce some good carbs day four on. It worked! I am only in a Moderate state of Ketosis and I have Lost 3.5 lbs this week or In 5 days actually. I go in for my second fill tomorrow and I have calmed down about it, thanks to all of those who sent a post. I know it will help restrict my intake of foods that I don't need to be eating and stop my cravings more too, also I want to get going with an excercise program. There is a Gym I have checked out that is $35 per month, and a personal trainer to assist you in setting up your Program! Gonna Give it a Whirl!:biggrin::thumbup::biggrin::eek::biggrin::mad::biggrin:Have a Blessed Day All!

Despite being depressed about Plateau-The Scales Went Down!

:mad3:2 lbs down this morning! I just thought I had hit the end of my weight loss at six months. I was so depressed, I even ate two small brownies after a church dinner the other night! Maybe I was so worried, I was cutting back and not consuming enough calories, whatever it is I am thankful! Also ready to get in the swing of things, with more exercise and good eating. Looking forward to spring, the next 6 months of my journey and a tummy tuck this July! Hope all has a great day of being a loser with the LapBand AP!:bored:

Throwing up~~Again! Nerves?

:confused:I hope it is just a case of the jitters and or my nerves, I have had a very hard time keeping food down today, and I want to eat, cause I am HUNGRY!   I start burping and then here it comes! After this wedding, I am going in to the Dr. if it does not calm down.   The rehearsal was a hit, but the dinner was not, Spaghetti and meat sauce, Garlic Bread, Salad with all the trimmings, cheese cake, cookies brownies you name it, it was all there, could not eat at all, just drank some tea, finally I got a little cheese cake down to stay! Oh well, will try tomorrow, the wedding is Sunday, my daughter looked so radiant tonight, I took a ton of photos but was so sick and throwing up, did not realize I was not in one photo tonight!!   Praying for things to get better.:frown:

Less and Less CC's in my Band on Fill Days!

I could not understand why my CC's got less and less. I WANTED more and more, because I thought that is what gave me restriction. Well I found out the very interesting facts about the fills today when I went in for my Fourth Fill! You need more CC's when you are streaching out the stomach more! If you are staying on program, and eating like you should. (And thank god I haven't cheated that much) Then you require less CC's to get the same restriction as you had in the beginning. I have a 10CC band and I am at 5.7CC's I hope that I can get another 50 lbs off by July 2010! I will be setting some small goals, and breaking them down through time in order to get there! Going to change my eating plan a little, and start adding foods that are a little higher carbs, but in very small quantities! I want to be able to eat like REAL Normal people and still lose weight. Then when I get to goal weight I will just maintain, by increasing the caloric intake a little and watching it! I felt better after talking with my Dr. and his nurse today! I am getting slim~~~Thanks to Dr. Tim! (and the LapBand):thumbup:

Happy Days!

:smile:Good Morning! And it is good. I am staying the same, and that is a GOOD thing.   I look at life this way, at least I am not gaining weight. All my life I gained weight. Now I am able to stay within a lb or so and right back down to the weight I have reached.   I am fairly content with this weight, but sure I would like to get one size smaller! I believe it will come to me one day soon. I am not going to push too hard, to allow my skin to adjust to all the weight loss.   I have two grandchildren arriving in September, new babies. One is a Girl~Ava and the Other a boy~ Wesley, So life is all good.   My youngest daughter is getting married to a wonderful young man she has been seeing for 8 years now on and off. They are the perfect couple. Planning is now in the "Get it done stages, so we are a little stressed, but not much, it is fun!"   So many Happy Days! I have nothing to complain about today! May God Bless your day and Give you What you Desire!

Do Good Anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Do good anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Almost every day, I hear a friend, a college, or a news reporter casting suspicion on the motives of someone who is doing good. They imply that others who seem to be doing good are only pretending to do good when in fact they have their own selfish ulterior motives. We may be accused of being selfish and have motives that are ulterior to ourselves for gratification by others who are not happy that we are doing good. Today I attended a funeral and was met by so many with praise for how I have lost my weight and kept it off. That felt good. But I really wonder where they were when I was heavy and still doing good for others? Oh well it does not matter, for we must do our best to help others and just accept that we can not change some things in life. The one thing we have done is change the way we feel, and look and how we now have more life to give to ourselves and those around us that we love. Oh God, Whom I praise, do not remain silent, for wicked and deceitful men, have opened their mouths against me; they have spoken against me with lying tounges. With words of hatred they surround me; they attack me without cause. In return for my friendship they accuse me, but I am a woman of prayer. They repay me evil for good, and hatred for my friendship. Psalm 109 Do not let those tear you down for what you have done and accomplished, continue to do good and show them that you were led for this journey. Keep the Faith!:confused:

Went to bed Hungry!!!

:mad:I went to bed hungry and very dissatisfied.   There will be days when nothing agrees with you. Yesterday was my day.   I got out in the pouring rain, bought taco shells and came home to fix taco's for dinner.   I can usually eat something crunchy like the shell of the taco. Fixed myself one and could not eat it! So I ate the meat filling instead and a little tomato.   Waited awhile and drank some soda.   Felt good, went to bed, but back up at 3:30 AM it was a huge thunderstorm outside and my stomach was having one inside. I WAS HUNGRY!!   When my band gets tight, I sometimes have a cup of hot liquid, like tea or coffee. So I poured myself a cup of hot black coffee and enjoyed that, then I fixed three slices of bacon and two scrambled eggs! A big breakfast is NOT something I usually do. But today I am HUNGRY.   I am on the Adkins Diet with the high protein but with some added carbs. Trying to get back into ketosis this week. (fat-burning)   It is hard to get going again, but this is the week I AM going to DO IT. I so want these last 25 lbs OFF. I want 10 down by Christmas and the balance off by next March. My Anniversary is the 17th, St. Patricks Day! After this last 25lbs, I will look into the Tummy Tuck!   So I have a lot to look forward to! And to work towards as well.   This big breakfast should hold me for awhile today, if I can get it all to go down and stay down, if I overeat, I get sick. My tightness is just right, but I tend to keep eating when I am full, old habits die hard!!!   Hope you all are acheiving your goals and getting back on track if you are off. Remember to chew, chew, chew, about 30 times for meat, that is the culprit everytime for me! God Bless!:bored:

It is raining! NO BEACH TODAY~ TEA Party instead?

:frown:Well so much for the beach day, it has been pouring for two days now, so my granddaughter and I have played dolls, dressup and today it will be the "Tea Party" time.   God has given us this time together and I will not grumble about the rain, we must need it.   Trying to stay on plan with a three year old in the house is harder than I thought! She wants Chicken Nuggets for lunch! Here we go, Fast Food places are places I try to stay away from now, they tempt me too much! I can't have fries now, they come right back out and no bread, so what will I get a thin piece of hamburger meat? No thanks, I'll save my money. May get a happy meal with Chicken Nuggets???   Have a great day all, and my God bless your lives today.:thumbup:

Food and Memorial Day Blahs?

:frown:Just thinking I wish I could eat a Hot Dog! Blah, Blah is my body adjusting faster than My Brain? I use to think that my brain moved faster than I could talk, and that I could think of things and ways to amuse my mind to keep the hands away from food.   Is it Just Memorial Day Blahs? I use to love to fix a big potato salad and ribs and hot dogs and hamburgers, I just kinda feel like I am missing out and just feeling a little low and left out right about now.   Not with the way I look and how I like getting into clothes sizes I could not wear for the past 10 or so years, I just sit around (when I am not working and think too much, it is hard to stop thinking about foods that I want to eat and can't) and want to eat, so I have to modify this behavior I KNOW! Anyway I think it has to do with lots of depressing things going on in my life right now, recent deaths, financial concerns, etc. I will get over it, and I will move on, and life will get better I KNOW: just needed to vent to those of you who KNOW where I am at at this stage, rolling 4 or 5 lbs around is so depressing, up and then down and then back up again, very challenging for the last 20 lbs on any diet program and even with the band too.:sad:
 

Labor Day~A year long labor of love with the Band! That is what I am talking about!!

:smile:It has been a real ride. I have been pretty happy every minute of it. There are of course disappointments along the way, but they seem to go away soon and we move on again. I am really laboring over cleaning the silver for my daughters upcoming wedding and getting all the crystal out and unpacked and finding the "special" pieces from those who have passed away, that we will incorporate into Jennifers special day. I have the great grandmothers punchbowl the was used at the 65th Wedding Anniversary of Jennifers great grandparents in Iowa, we will use that, it has been used at all of my childrens weddings except the oldest son. Jennifer will carry a silver locket with a picture of her dad's mom, (Grandmother Hurst) wrapped around the stems of her bouquet. She is the grandmother who spent a lot of time with Jenny, one of her mentors. Mrs. Hurst NEVER missed a day of school. Even in the hard winters in Iowa! She was well educated for her time. Jennifer finished RN school and is now working for a surgeon, and off every weekend! (Unless there is an emergency) She is borrowing my diamond tennis bracelet to wear,(I may never see it again~I will have to borrow it back, LOL) She will wear a blue garter, and a white one to keep. Her colors scheme is black and white. I told her I would not wear BLACK to the wedding. I have worn Black to disquise my weight all my adult life, and even tho I am fond of the color, I need to shine, not fade away! My dress is on the way, should be here next week, can't wait to see if it will fit right! Will post pics. I have uncovered Aunt Velma's silver salt cellars, Our 5th Wedding Anniversary Champane Flutes, and a lot of other goodies, so much that I can't see my kitchen table. So I have to go and clean that off before the hubs comes home. I am going to try to get to a wine tasting this afternoon and order a couple of cases of private label (With Jennifer and Franz' photos on the label) wine for the wedding. Have a wonderful day everyone.:smile:

Went to Disney~Playing with Grandchildren is so much FUN!

Losing these extra pounds is wonderful!   One of the things I wanted to accomplish is being able to get down and play with my grandchilden!   My oldest grandson Dylan just turned 7 and I took him to Disney World~all four parks in five days. We took one day off to swim in the pool and get in the hot tub and shop!   I was able to walk without giving out of breath, ride ALL the rides with him, even Splash Mountain and Mission Space, (although I can say I have been there~done that) which were very scary even for me.   I FIT in all the rides, did NOT have to have anyone PULL me out of them, Had a BLAST at 58! I just realized, that I FEEL YOUNGER!!! Taking off weight is Wonderful, no I have NOT lost 100 lbs, NOT met my personal weight loss goals yet, but I AM getting there with the help of the LapBand AND I am reaching the goals I set for my life changes and it feels good. I did not overeat on this trip, we bought groceries and cooked at the Condo, I took Crystal light for my water, snacks that I could have in my backpack, and it was all good. I did have a little of the Funnel Cakes and a Dole Pineapple soft serve as a VACATION TREAT! We had a great week. Then last night went out to eat in Destin/FWB at Fish Lipz on the Gulf of Mexico. I had the appetizer of Crab Cakes, they were so fresh and delicious, All I could eat! Drank water later, FULL! Everyone else had Ribeyes, Salads, potatoes loaded, I ate slow all went down and stayed down. $9.00, I was a cheap date, LOL Enjoyed food and friends we seldom see. I never knew how much fun is was to PLAY until NOW! Thanking God for the Band!:thumbup:

Back to the Workouts and Walks

:tt1:Walkin can make you feel really invigorated, and relieves stress (and Gas~right after surgery) So walk more and feel better.   Workouts at the Gym are just that, a workout, I don't particularly like to sweat, but it is burning up excess fat, so sweat I do!!!! And do it well I might add.   Heading to the Gym anyone? ME!!!!

Facing the Fiddler

:scared2:Today is the day I see the Dr. for a Fill OR NOT! I dread this day, cause I have not been eating right, cause stuff will not go down, so I need a slight unfill so I don't eat sliders to feel full. (Sliders=Stuff I should not have full of calories, that slide through easy)   So Here I go to face the fiddler and to help myself to eat fish, chicken and salads again!   I will not be as depressed either!   On a good note:smile:My oldest grandson will graduate from Kindergarten this morning and I feel so blessed for having this year almost behind me! Life gets better every year.   This year two more grandchildren will be added to our family and my daughter gets married in October! So we will be growing our little family! God is a Good God!:smile2:
 

Happy Today!

:thumbup: Well I am ready for a fill. Not sure why I just can't get the scales to drop that much anymore. I feel like the restriction is less now on some days and more on others, but it does depend on what I am eating too. One of my best friends is getting ready to have the LapBand, she is going through the hoops that BCBS is making her do. And the Diet Clinics don't really help you, cause they just want you back and your money!!! The latter being the most important thing. I hope she does not get discouraged, she will be so happy she made this choice. I am down 67 lbs give or take a lb or two that fluctuates daily now! Support group meeting tomorrow night and I will be so glad! I NEED it. I want to thank all of you who have helped me these last six months. I know it takes time to go in and comment or send a private message, but it means so much to me. I don't know you all but you know where I am because you are there too, and it so helps to share on here. I am Happy Today to have all of you in my life, you are my Valentines!:biggrin::thumbup::tt1:

I made the Local Newspaper!

:blushing:Well it finally happened, the Hospital put the article about me in the Local Newspaper! I did not know it was going Local but that the Medical Journal was to have an article about me in it! WELLL~~~a lot of folks started coming to my work to see me, and said that had to be you but the name was wrong under your Photo! They had my name and story correct in the written article, but put the name of a nurse (that I had actually gradutated with) instead of my name, how funny. Hey she needs to lose weight too! It was kinda nice being noticed so much, but I wanted to be smaller when the article came out, oh well! I did give my written permission~and I am so different than that person 7 1/2 months ago was! I will count my blessings. Went to the Gym tonight had quite a workout, felt good to be alive! God Bless and keep you all. My dear friend who passed will be cremated in the morning and we shall give her our last respects. Love and true friendship never die!:sad:

My Appetite is getting Less and Less!!!

:wink:Well it seems that my appetite is now getting less. I don't know what happened, maybe I am just use to eating less? But my head hunger was there for ALL the beginning months after my surgery and when I SAW foods that I use to eat or LOVED to cook like brownies, I did not think I could REFUSE to eat them.   NOW, it seems like a page has turned and I am NO longer so tempted to eat those things anymore because my appetite is so low.   Today, I was out on the road by myself, money in my pocket, it was lunch time and the restaurants were FULL, the food smelled good coming from the Restaurant, but I just passed them all by and went home for a lunch. Peanuts and Protien Shake! Then tonight it was chicken salad sandwich. I am totally full too! I did have a low cal single fudge pop for late night snack.   I think this is where I am starting to feel settled with the way I eat now, and not LEFT OUT, because I am not at an ALL YOU CAN EAT buffet with my friends. I went to the Pizza Hut the other day, 1/2 of a salad and one SMALL slice of pizza and I was TOO FULL and almost sick feeling. So I just have to eat at the house most of the time, so I relax and ENJOY my food. Even drinking water too fast makes me feel bad. I think SLOW and steady is the way for me now.   I like where I am now, it is soon to be 14 months on the 29th of Sept! 94 lbs off and I hope to shed the last 6 by 10-10-10, my daughters wedding date.   Have a great nite all!:eek:

Lots of Traveling and it is Too Difficult to eat out anymore, I just can't!

:cursing: It just does not agree with me anymore. I just throw money away to try and eat out! Don't eat the bun, the frys or the soda that "Come" with the "DEAL"!   Paying high prices for meals I take home to the dog! I just noticed today and my husband said something to me that Su Su is getting "FAT"! He wanted to know what I have been feeding her???? OMG I am making this dog FAT eating the foods I CULL   She is going on a diet and the leftovers in the Garbage Disposal!!! LOL   There are so FEW places I can eat out, and I know exactly WHAT I can have there too. But tomorrow I am on the road again with a group of my friends traveling for another celebration and friends 60th BD Party. She has had breast cancer and it is back, we are dressing in 60's clothing and singing "My Girl" for her and giving her 60 Red Roses for our love!   She is special. I know I will "Brown bag" my lunch and get my protien shake in before I leave in the morning, just got to think ahead with the lapband that is all. Snacks I can have in the purse, check, protien powder in zip lock bags, check! Does anyone out there do what I do???? It helps to keep my weight in check, I am not losing any longer. Got to try to settle down and get back to my routine and diet and more exercise, got Disney out of the way, spent time on the road with my daughter and new granddaughter and now off with friends, So after this weekend, no more traveling till Thanksgiving!!!!   Then it will be Home Again, Home Again, Jigggety Jog!!!:thumbup:

I AM NOT SATISFIED YET! I AM HOPING FOR ONDERLAND BY CHRISTMAS! I AM 211.4 THIS MORNING AND I BELIEVE THAT I CAN DO IT! I HAVE A PLAN, STAYING IN KETOSIS TILL THE POUNDS DROP, INCREASING MY EXCERCISE EVERY DAY, GONNA GIVE MYSELF A CHRISTMAS PRESENT! WHAT IS YOUR PLAN?:thumbup::biggrin:

LIFE HAPPENS:We Fall off the PLAN~How to get back on Track!

:thumbup:ok so it happens! How can we go for the longest time dropping weight, saying NO! to foods we know will sabatog our plan, feeling great, We DID it! And then, one day we DON'T write down the food we ate that day, or we didn't drink enough water, or we ate a SMALL peice of candy or cake or some forbidden fruit that will kill the ketosis! One day leads to the next and we fall into a sloppy habit~but we are busy and there is just no time? (Or we don't make the time~NOW do We?) BUT we are eating the rest of the time right, and we are going to the Gym two to three times a week, and in between LIFE HAPPENS! We don't measure portions, we guage our intake of foods, (they are usually way too much, because our brains are not banded) Can't blame this slip on the Band! Maybe we are in between fills and we are stretching that band too much by consuming too many calories, (even a trip to the Gym will only even the count; so maybe you just stay the same, not lose a lb!) I'm just sayin! Life Happens~that is usually the case, or I know it is with me. NO STRESS! Let's see, The Economy is in a horrible state, I am building a house, about half way to the finish line, decisions, decisions. I am in about two lawsuits; hopefully they will result in getting my major investments back so I don't lose all my retirement! They have been ongoing for about two years now. My youngest daughter just announced that she is getting married this year and I am very happy about that; UNTIL the first planning meeting with future in-laws last night. Looks like a VERY expensive wedding~~~hummmm lets see, now who gets to pay? My house may get put on hold (AGAIN) Extremely HAPPY that my oldest daughter is Pregnant, after trying for 8 years and lots of surgery, etc. We are in a state of Joy over it. Then I find out my Oldest Sons wife is Pregnant too, and both babies are to come in the same WEEK! Wow! Just like Twins and in my family grandbabies come in twos! Two and a half years ago, we got a little girl and a little boy 11 days apart by my two sons! (So how to I be with both at the same time and help out a little? S-T-R-E-T-C-H~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My Car is messing up, and it won't be cheap to fix it, AND I am NOT going to trade, cause I don't want the monthly payment! Haven't had it paid off that long~ISN'T THAT THE WAY IT ALWAYS IS? Today is my youngest Grandsons first Birthday and the party is tonight! (Of Course there will be lots of Food!) I ate three or four large bites of ITALIAN CREME CAKE last night! Now I am ridden with GUILT:eek: I did what I taught myself NOT TO DO! I said "Oh Well, I am celebrating my Daughters Wedding!" (And I am worried about money) So have the darn CAKE, it will make you feel better, COMFORT!) It was~FOR A MINUTE! NOW I feel miserable and I can not UNDO it~:frown: Oh if they only had the UNDO button on food like they do in PHOTO SHOP! LOL So today is Friday and TGIF, If it was MONDAY I could start over, RIGHT? WRONG! I am starting over today, I AM GOING to WRITE DOWN all my food today, I AM GOING To only eat Protein for three days, and control the portions! Monday I will check my Ketosis, hopefully I will be there~Then I am going to stay on Mushies for 7 Days, lots of protein, not over 50 grams of carbs or LESS:scared2: I should drop a few lbs with the Start OVER! In spite of it all I am on a good track to healthy~So I am each day on a roller coaster of Happy~Upset, Happy~Upset, Good News, Bad News, Good News, Bad News. Dealing with Husbands trials, childrens trials, Financial trials, Up~Down, Worried about everything from day to day. Spending a lot of time in Prayer, asking God to take this from me. :cool:I thank God that I have had the Lap Band Surgery, and I am going in the right direction, even tho I lose my way and get off the track, I can only look forward now, I WILL NOT GO BACK! If this happens to you, and I may be the only one, but I am just sayin! Get your mind screwed back on, start thinking positively and looking forward and get back with the plan, and you will prevail. 1. Keep the food log. 2. Drink the water.(to flush the fat and keep hydrated) 3. Exercise three times per week. 4. Get that much needed protein.   I hope you have a great weekend and a positive week ahead.   "Life Happens" We just have to resign to live the LapBand Life~For Life~" I love being thinner and the LapBand Life is the life for me and YOU!:thumbup:

Getting Excited about The Wedding Dress!

:smile:My dress will be here today or tomorrow hopefully!!!   I can't wait to try it on, it is beautiful! I hope that now with the weight loss it will be a wedding I will feel good about how I look! When my son got married I was in too few photos, and that is sad. But I dodged the camera, needless to say that was not fair to my son for his memories later on when I am no longer around. (which will be a long time!!!)   If it fits, I will take photos and post! Hope you all have a blessed day!:thumbup:
