i am staying on plan today because ...
tapshoes replied to losingjusme's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Weigh-in is Monday; I've been on a plateau for over a month; and I really want this to work! -
Yesterday B: bowl of oatmeal with 1/2 c fruit S: 1 oz cheese L: 1/2 stuffed pepper D: other half of the pepper S: 2 oz cheese

Last night was the second of my three committed additional exercise events. Two down, one more to go. Maybe I can have another mud-slinging gardening day on the weekend.... Weigh-in is Monday, and if I haven't broken the plateau, I don't know what I will do. I still haven't found the righteous indignation or anger that has previously propelled me; I'm still in a funk from Monday....

OMG Jamie...you have done so well! You look fabulous!! Fabulous, simply fabulous!

Just checking in, ladies. Did everyone have a vice-free evening? We are heading into the weekend (the time when my resolve is always at its lowest), so remember: We can do this; We are stronger than our cravings! I can't hear you!! Again, and louder!!! We can do this; We are stronger than our cravings!

particularly if it is in a bag of cookies, a box of candybars, a 5lb bag of almonds, or the ice-cream freezer!

Ezma - if we ever knew the answer, we would be wealthy...it is a real mystery!
-
Just how freakin' long has this morning been???
-
Have any good fish recipes?
-
Perhaps a better response: See that cow/pig/caribou? You kill, me cook.

Happy Birthday Fanny! and celebrate a 3 lb loss...I would SOOOO love to see the scale move. Almost a month, and no change...

What weight for regular size clothing??
tapshoes replied to KarenG.'s topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I just can't understand the variations here. When I was 220, I was a 2X top, and 18/20 pant/skirt. So I really can't fathom those who are close to my weight wearing 14s or 16s...I'm thinking 14's are for when I reach the 150's... -

the stubborn side of me says 'you WILL do this; you CAN do this'. -
B: oatmeal with 1/2 cup berries L: 1oz cheese; 1/2 c ff yogurt D: 1/2 of a stuffed pepper S: 1/2 c raisins

Although my heart wasn't in it, I did do my extra exerceise yesterday. That's the first of the 3 I said would do each week. I did it.

Oh Ezma, I really do feel bad for you. Back to healthy eating...step away from any icecream, and the frozen food section at the store. I know your family returns this weekend, but they don't need the ice-cream either.
-
Supporting each other through our trials and tribulations, that's what it's all about! Ummm, why do I now have the urge to do the hokey-pokey?

Fluid in band before first fill?

Some physicians put fill in at the time of surgery intentionally. -
YEAH, Ezma!!!
-
As with everything else, your physician may have his/her own rules; 'tis best to check. For my doc, shower was fine for first 3 weeks, after that a bath was allowed. No swimming pools or hot tubs though for 6 weeks.
-
Oh RSG, I am so sorry. As much as misery loves company, I really do wish you weren't in the same situation as me. Keep swimming is right...glug glug...
-
You only have 1 of them, right? You don't use the reasoning that because they are bite sized you can have 2 or more, do you? You can start weaning yourself off of them - every other day for, hmmm 1 week. RSG - I just had a mental image of you and Ezma doing the 'ice cream stomp':lol: OKAY everyone, let's hear the chant: We can do this. We are stronger than our cravings. Again, and LOUDER

I am so glad to hear this. I hope things go well for you Brad.

If the choice is walk the plank, or walk into your mouth....
