So I was banded on 4/23 and I have done good...However I know feellike I have no restiction and I am stuck...! I have not gained anything, but I have not lost anything in a week either...:thumbup: I almost feel like I have fallen off the ship and I am swiming as fast as I can to get back on.. Has anyone else had any of the same feelings?
well I am done with week one and moving on to week 2 I lost 4 pounds last week! :thumbup: And the best part I was on Vacation while I was doing it! It is really not as hard as I thought it was....I even have the kids reading labels for nutrition facts before they eat something... the 23rd is right around the corner and I can not wait!!!
I am going crazy waiting to hear form my insurance company. I think they are trying to get me to give up and not have this done. We have been denied now more times than I can count. The funny part is that they have everything they are looking for. :thumbup: I have gone thru the sleep study and wow that was the weirdest thing I have ever done! All my pre testing is done and I am jsut waiting fo rthe insurance. I must admit i am a little nervous. I mean I know this is what I want to do! I know I can be successful at it. I am trying to ease myself in tothe pre surgury diet now before I have to do it. I LOVE UNJURY Protein!!! I tis so good. I mix it with the 1/2 skim and 1/2 skim milk cubes that I have frozen. It is totally like a milkshake!!!! My son even tested it one day and thought mom should you have this? :smile: I am a workout girl, so I am worried as to how long before I will be able to get back into that after surgury? I will keep you posted thru my progress and let you know how I do. Right now I am at 227 and hope to go to 135 by the end of this...that was my before babies weight...
So seriously I can not tell you how many people have told me how I have lost so much weight, but I so do not feel that way? I am down 30 lbs since April 1st...I look at my little neice who is 30 lbs and thanks were did that go from me???? How can I not se that much weight difference? My clothes are fitting a little differnt, but not 30 lbs different... I am still loing about 1-2 lbs a week and that is great...but when will I see the results in the mirror???:bored:
I just recieved my aproval letter and I am so excited! I can not wait to make the call to my surgeon's office today to make my appointment! I am already down 7 lbs from the last time I wrote! this has been a long wait and now my journey is begining!
Wow...well here I am banded for a week and 2 days. I am back at work today for the first time and OMG my port is killing me. I have gotten up and walked every 15 minutes becauase that is all that helps. I have a desk jpb so it is not that bad, but I feel like I am always walking around. My manager is ok with it and she knows I get my work done, but it scares me as to what others will think. I am not hungry, but also terrified to put anything thicker than cream soup in my mouth. I am down 10 lbs from my surgury date and I love it!!! One week 10 lbs I'll take it! hope everyone is doing well!
So Fill number 1 and he added in 3.1cc's of liquid ot my band....Wow I can totally tell te difference when I eat!!!! That was not as bad as I thought it would be either...my 10 year old daughter was so excited she got to watch him do it! She is my rock my little cheerleader! got to love it whenthe role reversal comes in and the child takes care of the mom! Doing great and I am almost under 200!!!!!
Ok so I am freaking out... I have my first fill tomorrow. I am so ready for a fill I have onlu lost 2 lbs int he past 2 weeks... I was dropping weight like crazy then it just stopped. i was nervous, but my doctor said no worries you will be fine. So I will post tomorrow to let you all know how it went. Wish me luck.
