Size 12!!!

I'm now in a size 12!! I don't think I've ever bought a size 12 since junior high school, but on last Friday I went to New York and Company and tried on and get this...." A SIZE 12 WHITE PANTS SUIT"! I remember when I wouldn't dare buy white pants! So, to my surprise it fit!! Then, I went to JCPenney and bought another size 12, I have to get new clothes, because all my other clothes are TOO BIG! Well, I feel really good about my new size. Although, the band plays a huge role in my weight loss, but I'm playing a much bigger role by exercising and watching what I eat. I'm the boss, the band is my assistant! Be Blessed! Menu from 4/30-5/3 1 can of soup a day Half cup of 2% Milk Quaker 90 calorie snack Cup of Quaker sweet snack mix Grapes

Review

I called UHC just to check the status of my claim and I was told that it is being reviewed and I should have an anwser this week. I hope so, because I am ready to get going!! I have started on Adipex and I feel a lot better! I am eating very little a day (a little over 600 calories a day). Thank God...just wanted to give you an update. Sheila Be BLESSED!:girl_hug:

Protein Drink

I went to The Vitamin Shoppe and they were out of the zero carb Isopure chocolate, vanilla and strawberry! So I got a box of New Whey 42grams of protein 3.1oz tubes. My nutritionist told me about them and since I am suppose to have 80 grams of protein a day these will be perfect! They are very convenient and no mixing, but I do want the zero carb Isopure.

Pre-Opt Phase (again)

Hi Everyone, I have to get this weightloss thing going again. So I've decided to do the pre-opt diet. Even though I go for my 3rd fill on 7/31 (who knows what will happen). I haven't had a fill since August 1, 2007. So I must say that I've done pretty good! Okay today is my 1st day of liquids: SF Jello Better Than Boullion broth Protein Shake Be blessed!

Pre-Opt Diet is harder than expected!

Okay yesterday I was suppose to start the pre-opt diet, but messed up. So today is going really well, but I am wanting to eat! So this morning I had one New Whey protein shot (42grams) on ice. Lunch: I had one New Whey protein shot (42grams) blended with about one cup of skim milk and ice. I also had a can of cream of broccoli soup w/ a half of cup of skim milk instead of using water. Honestly I am not hungry...I guess since I can't have what I want it's driving me crazy. Tonight I will have one Ramen noodle package (only seasoning) and mix it with one can of beef broth. I have already thrown the noodles away. I hope I can make it to 1/11. I guess it all depends on the doctor...one doctor say no pre-opt diet required and another say two week pre-opt is required! Oh well I will do my best to follow this stuff. Be BLESSED, Sheila

Post Opt Day 9

Well I seem to have this protein drinking down. It seems like I can drink about a cup with some restriction. I also have about a half of cup of some kind of soup/broth. I eat a few popsicles now, before it was a lot. I'm not having that much of an appetite...if protein wasn't important I doubt if I would drink anything. I'm just not in the mood for anything except what I can't have. Anyway, I will start the puree stage on the 25th! Woohoo!! Be BLESSED!

Post Opt Day 6

Hello everyone, I am on day seven since surgery and it's going well. I can not seem to drink more than about 42 or so grams of protein. I will discuss that with the nutritionist today...other than that I drink Crystal Light and eat popsicle and chicken noodle broth. I haven't weighed, but I can tell a difference in my clothes and face. I assume they will weigh me today. Until next time, I will type ya later. Be BLESSED!

Post Opt Day 12

Wow everyday I am losing weight! I've lost a total of 16.1 pounds...I'm loving this. I know it has a lot to do with the liquids, but as long as I am working out hard the pounds will continue to fall off. Cool beans!! I'm ready to fit in my old clothes to really see the change, but I will have to wait to lose about another 15 pounds. Anyway....all is GREAT!! Be BLESSED

OOH Boy I Got A Little GAS!!!

Between the 6oz shake I had today and the water, one of them gave me a little gas! I was in tears!!! So I went straight for the Gas-X...it's workin a little. Man! I was upset at myself for having the band put in! A friend of mine had it done and reassured me that it will get better. I've walked twice today for a total of 20 minutes to ease the pain and it helps. So tomorrow I won't use skim milk, just to try and pin point the cause. Other than that I am fine, no pain at any of my incision sites. Thank you JESUS!! Be Blessed

One week to go!

I have one week to go until I'm banded! I am starting to get nervous again, but I know it will be alright. I will meet w/ the surgeon on tomorrow and have some other tests done by the anesthesiologist at the hospital. So I may be there about a half of day. Then I'm going to the school submit my papers for class on 1/16. So I have no earthly idea what time I will be in to work. Other than that it's a new day and I am giving this liquid thing another go. Until next time...Be BLESSED!!
