Only need 6 more lbs by dec 31! Lost two since I posted my goal?..hurray!

Oh my gosh! That's in to time at all! Great news! I get my second fill Monday!

Great minds always think alike...

I'm sure she is, but for your own safety....

Wow! Like they couldn't have done that yesterday? Well anyway, happy for you! When is your date?

Oh yes banster hell. It will pass. Yes you are gonna be hungry. Keep yourself busy! Sip on whatever your dr recommends/allows all day long. It will pass in no time!

I'm doing a virtual on dec 15. Then Jan 5 for ALS. When is yours?

Great results!

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention tea! Hot wonderful, herbal tea! It is my drug of choice now. Morning, night and anywhere in between. My favorite for the moment is red leaf chai tea, tastes good and is caff free! If I'm craving sweet I put a little sf pumpkin flavored syrup in it. Calms all the demons!

Headed to the gym today for the first time in a long time. I had my hubby in tow for motivation. I am doing Jeff Galloway's training plan walk/run for a virtual 10k I'm planning in December. I was really proud of myself because I did so well. I can't wait to go back again. I was doing really well with my weight loss last year when I took up running. I then hurt myself on a trail run, herniated disc in my lower back and then I gained my weight back. Not all of it mind you but enough to be disgusting! I'm feeling better and hope with continued weight loss I won't have to worry about my back again!

I'm from Stockton! Banded 10/5 Surgery is tomorrow right?

Fabulous and beautiful!

8 lbs by December 31!

Shelly, she's only two weeks out. Meals may not even be an option for her.

My goodness, you poor thing. These are things that your surgeon should have told you OR should have directed you too a a nutritionist to help you. This is the first that I have ever seen where someone didn't know what to do post op. do you have some booklets to go through that maybe you missed? The post op diet should NOT be a mystery. Your correct healing depends on this period and what you eat! I would take all of your questions and direct them to the person who is supposed to be working for you. On a side note, I was only eating 400-500 cal during this time so it is normal. Watch out for sugar content on the shakes too. Keep us posted on what or doc says!
