That is totally it!!! :w00t::thumbup: Well, I am down a lb today, but I have been seeing a pattern. If I count calories and stress about it I gain, or don't lose, and when I eat crap and give up I lose. What the heck is that about???!!! I ate horrible yesterday because we were visiting my family. and when I get all my protein, and drink my shakes, and eat healthy I GAIN!!! AAAARRRRGGG!!!! I guess this must be another experiment stage to see what works for me.

No loss for me this week, idk what is going on :w00t:

Yikes! I'm so sorry that you went through this! I can imagine how painful and uncomfortable it was!

LOL!!! Yeah! I was hoping we might get a few people together and have night at a restaurant night like the Dr.K ladies do at Red Robin.

I know no one has posted here in a while, idk if I ever have, but I thought it might be nice to talk to other Utah bandsters. I live in Sugarhouse and work in Murray. Anyone out there?

Sorry you are going through this. But at least you know that you have some help coming in Feb. Good luck with the fill and let us know how the restriction is after!

So let me tell a funny thing that happened to me today. Ok, not funny, and kinda gross. The last time I had chili, which was in November, I PB'd. So I decide to try chili again today, and I just had my second PB. I will never eat chili again, I SWEAR!! It is the only thing that has made me sick. I don't care how much protein there is in it. Oh, well. Just needed to vent. Thanks! BTW~ SO glad that the surgery is deductable!

No worries, got it fixed for you. You just have to remember to delete the quotes at the beginning and the end.

I've only lost 1 lb this week, kinda disappointing.

Ok, this is me at my 6 month mark, down 41 lbs.

Ok, so I am starting another thread, but I REALLY want to see pictures of you guys and your progress! Here are mine! The fist was taken 2 weeks after my surgery and the other is from last week.

ok, Here are my 6 month pictures.

So I hit my 6 month mark today. I wish I was losing faster, but I have lost 1/4 of what I need to lose. It's not to bad seeing as there is no way I could have lost that all on my own. So I am posting a 6 month pic along with my original.

Well, today is my 6 month mark, and I have lost 41lbs to date. I wish it was going faster, but I have lost 25% of the weight I need to, to get to goal. I guess that is something. I am going to post pics today on our progress pics thread. I hope you all are doing well too!

No problem! I just figured if I put it in big red letters that people would see it. :tongue2:

Another 1 down for me today, nice to see it going down again. Holidays and TOM can sure do a number on ya.

I don't think that it is too soon. Dr. K places empty bands while some dr's fill during surgery. Dr.K has more emphasis on healing before a fill. I wish it had been sooner too. Congratz on doing so well on your 2nd day! real liquids are much better but it is worth it in the end.
