    Ghrelin ? Still hungry?

    funny i was just the opposite.. 9 months after operation i am down almost 200lbs and i am never ever ever hungary .. i eat cause i have to buts it so odd i have never regained the hunger feeling.... Even i am amazed by it and they told me hunger would go away and like i said it never returned.. Chris

    Wondering

    Carlotta,, Im happy for u.. I have heard issues from some people. Both sides. One person loses it and and other gets worried and it causes issues as well as the person that has lost the weight wants to go "test the waters" and see if the grass is greener.. Its all about how strong your relationship is. I feel if the man is not supportive of your choice then it probably not going to last anyways. Just my opinion.. The partner should always be supportive. Chris

    Im at around 215 and happy!

    Well i am basically at goal. I am done really trying to lose weight because im under high school weight. I have raised my calories to around 1200-1400 per day. I do work out 6 days per week faithfully and have lowered my cardio to 35 minutes per day from 50 so i can concentrate on lifting weights and abdominal work. That is working out fine. I actually just got home from a 12 day mexico tip and hit the gym 11 out of the 12 days. Its a good habit now that wont be broken. I figure i am going to maybe gain 5-10 lbs of muscle but get leaner though i am in a 34 inch waist and large shirt now. Im fine with all of this. My weight will probably fluctuate from 215-225 but that is all fine with me. I am happy and thin..... Chris

    Most Insane work out ever!

    6 days per week.. lift weights eveyday, abs everyday and cardio 35 minutes a day. i spend about 1 hour and 10 minutes ish per day in the gym.. Takes 3 weeks to form or break a habit. So its easy! Chris

    nervous i need insight

    pain ... barely any.. gas discomfort.. walk walk walk and walk some more to get rid of that!!!!!
  11. Thank u for that info re food intake,. Im still doing like 3 maybe 4 small meals per day of about 300 - 400 calories each. I see your pretty much at your goal as well. Yeah i suppose its all up to your body but you have done it as well. its amazing. Im going to see how i do when i weigh in the end of next week.. i was in Mexico for 2 weeks and just got home 3 days ago and needless to say the resort was awesome but the food was well YUCK!!! HAHA. I did the best I could. Now im back on a roll.
  12. I am less than 10lbs from goal. But i have surpassed my first goal my surgeon set for me months ago by 30lbs so i changed my goal to 210ish. I actually had my first weight gain of 3+ LBS. No biggie I mean im lifting more weights and trying to tone now. Also I feel less restriction. I can eat more. Are both of these issues normal? I guess they are not issues but is what I am experiencing normal? A small weight gain as well as ability to eat more? Thank you Christian

    How often did you call insurance?

    ZERO.,, My bariatric center did this all for me. I would check with the people your hiring to take care of your procedure. They must have a business administrator. Chris

    At a loss bout not losing.

    Dont worry about it. Stick to the plan and it will melt away. That is an early stall but it will stall for 1-2 weeks at some points. Dont get discouraged. Beleive me Chris

    taking the band out

    Well I have heard this is very very very common. Thats why my surgeon doesnt even do band any longer. My understanding is they do the whole procedure at once. Cut the band out and convert to sleeve. I wish you the best of luck. Chris
  23. Good luck to all of those surgeries about to happen. Ill be back with Bariatric Pal in a couple of weeks. Chris
