Awesome weight loss! Congrats... Please share what your daily meals were?

We got a above ground pool and had them dig a hole so the pool could go under 2 feet. Well they didn't put the sand back because my hubby says he was going to do it. Soo I thought to be helpful I would go and start refilling the space a long the side of the pool! Why did I do that ..... I started seeing stars- felt like I was going to faint after 30 min in the sun doing it and my arms feel like jello! Talk about being out of shape!!!! Wonder how many calories I burned?

What are you eating daily? Share some of your tips. That's awesome weight loss, have u had a fill yet?

I'll try that next time... Just doesn't seem like you could ever get enough water in this heat. I'm in south Florida!

Nope never had hbp. I think it was the heat and not properly hydrated. Went swimming today with the kids- couldn't get much exercise cause they followed me all over the pool! I'm sure I probably burned a little bit of calories.

I'm doing great! No fill yet I'm down 17 lbs...changed my diet to low carbs and the weight is starting to drop off. My dr. Says to eat no more than 30g. I'm barely eating a cup of food. I find that I'm full after a meal for a long time. I'm not complaining though! Had homemade chilli for dinner -- it was yummy! Have a great night and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Received! Thanks you never know who might need to read you message....

I got a little work out today. I think I did to much and it was extremely hot outside. I was putting sand along the sides of our above ground pool. My arms feel like jello. I had to stop cause I was seeing stars! Talk about being out of shape! Whew I got a long way to go. Wonder how many calories I burned.

Good Luck on your journey to surgery! I was banded with plication May 18. Im glad I did it .

I went to mine last week- no fill. I really don't think I need one cause I'm full after eating and I don't get hungry again when I eat my protein. I just eat again. I space meals out every 4-6 hours. I just need a easy convenient meal plan!

Yeah I can feel mine when I bend. It's like i have to readjust myself and bend a different way. Feels ackward !

Welcome Mrs CMK & lassie! Congrats on the weight loss :-)

Welcome jeani81!

My Dr. Didn't give me a fill. I'm not sure I need it, I find that the protein that I eat per day makes me feel so full. I feel stuffed! I was told to eat at least my 3 meals even if I'm not hungry. Also said to eat all protein first then eat veg if I'm not full. Lady Scorpio- I had that same concern. I need to find out because if the plication is working well and I never get a fill but 6-12 months later I need one. Also I need to find out is there an amount you get per year thats included. I don't know why I didn't ask those questions before .

That gas is the worse! It will eventually go away. Just continue to do what you are doing! So many have expressed other ways to get rid of it and I can say I did it all so can't really tell u what works!

Congrats on your loss! I'm sure a newbie would be grateful for this post. I too was banded with plication and I wish I would've done it sooner. Stay positive and focused- looking forward to hear your journey.

You are doing great! Better to lose slow than not at all. Besides it gives your body time to keep up with your progress. Most of the time when people lose too fast it comes back fast because of poor eating habits. I'm taking this time to learn and live my new healthy lifestyle. I'm glad you are doing well keep it up!

I think I read a while back that drinking cold water helps you burn calories. Had something to do with thermogenics and your body working to keep body temperature normal and working to warm up after drinking the cold water.

My Dr. Says not to eat until you are close to your goal weight. He says to stay at 30g of carbs - eat fruit to get that amount of carbs.

Hello all... Glad to see everyone is doing well! I went to my appt yesterday and I didn't lose anything and no fill yet. I'm thinking I need some help with my selection of food. I need to start planning so I can start losing. My Dr. Was not too concerned says I'm still healing. He also told me to reduce my carbs to 30 per day since I'm starting regular foods. Seems like when I was on mushies it was lots of carbs. I go back in 3 weeks. Wish me luck!

Whenever I log off LBT, I have to go back to the invite in order to post on the group because when I log in and go straight to my subscriptions it ask for a password. So I just stay logged in on my phone. So it won't keep doing that. Just wanted you all to know in case you ask me something and I don't respond right away.

Thanks for sharing! Very inspiring..
