Starting the holiday detox early, anyone wanna join me?
cheercoach08 replied to Boo Boo Kitty's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well, I messed up on day 2. DH and I went to town to do some errands and he wanted Chinese. I ate Chinese. Oh well, it could have been worse. I'm back to liquids again and I am going to do the treadmill for longer tonight. -

I survived Day 1!!! It wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I went to my mom's and she had cooked. She also had German Chocolate cake. I stuck to the liquids though. Congrats to all of us who survived day 1 and good luck to all those starting! -
Happy New Year everyone! Good luck to everyone this year on their weight loss! Today starts the big day lol. I have had 2.5 cups of coffee. Time to go make a lovely protein shake!

TY Leslie! You are right! I would have made myself sick from eating the fish. Last night though, I got a couple of pieces and had to put one back! I like reading your posts btw; you are hilarious!

OK I cheated yesterday as well. I started the day off doing really well until my hubby came home from fishing. I had to fry fish and I ate some. Then I figured well I have already messed up so why not eat this last piece of cake to get it out of the house! Then this morning, I got up and my hubby had actually cooked breakfast. I haven't eaten yet, but I know I will. So, the liquids will start TOMORROW! (Gosh I feel like such a failure!)

Hey Kim,
Just checking to see how things are going. I have been very bad and have fall off the bandwagon. Today, I am getting back on track.

I am starting liquids today. I have been so depressed that I have gained 11 lbs. I have been walking on the treadmill for 35 minutes everyday since Saturday, but I have been eating wrong. I am really glad to know that I am not alone. I have felt like a failure. Thanks for starting this thread and getting me motivated. -

I was banded on April 4th. Today is the first day that I have really felt better. The gas pain is the worse. Like every one else, the key is walking, walking, walking. I have the same gurgling sound, but I am not hungry. I can not get all the liquids in. I weighed and was so disappointed. I had gained 2 lbs. I am hoping it is just gas though. I know it can't be what I am eating because the most I have had to eat was a half cup of cream of chicken soup and 2 sf fudgesicles. Glad to hear everyone is getting better and good luck to all of you who are having surgery soon! -
Good morning! Today is the first day I have felt like coming upstairs to the computer. I can not get in all my drinks and water. I am sooo sore. I think most of it is the gas. I was home around 1pm on Friday. I didn't have to have an upper GI. All they did was xrays. Today, I am glad I had it done. Friday night it hurt so bad I almost had my hubby take me back to the hospital. Saturday was a little better, but I was regretting doing it. Sunday was alot better.Today is good. I am just going to make sure I keep walking, walking, walking. I am glad you are feeling well! Keep in touch!

Hi all April Avengers!!! I have 4 days until the big day. I am soo excited. I am home this week on Spring Break. I have to keep busy this week so I won't get nervous. So far, I am not nervous at all just excited. The liquid diet is going well. I have been on it for a little over a week. I can tell my tummy is shrinking because it is hard to get all the liquids in now. Good luck to everyone!
-
I have to be on liquids for 2 weeks. Tomorrow will end the 1st week. The first couple of days, I was a little hungry. Now, I can't seem to get all the Protein shakes in. I usually only have 3 instead of the 5.

Good Luck!! I'm getting banded on the 4th.

Quit Smoking and gaining!!!
cheercoach08 replied to JerseyGirl2u's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey THinDolpin, I figured a way to hurry the insurance approval. Call them daily LOL. I was told it would take up to 15 business days. I talked to several who said that was ridiculous. After a week, I called them every day. After about 3 days, I had an approval!!!! -
Quit Smoking and gaining!!!
cheercoach08 replied to JerseyGirl2u's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have decided that since I will be back at work tomorrow, that is my day!!!!! I have tried the Chantix and it does work. It just makes me sick. I know I have to quit though. I sure don't want to cough and mess up my band!!!!! Good luck to everyone! -
Quit Smoking and gaining!!!
cheercoach08 replied to JerseyGirl2u's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I too am a smoker. I said once I got my approval, I would quit. I still haven't. I know I have to, but I am afraid I will start eating. I was going to quit when I started my liquid phase, but it was Friday and I told myself I would quit on Monday when I am not home all weekend. I know I have to quit.
