I am almost 3 months post-op and I have a few drinks one maybe two nights a week. I used to be a very heavy (no pun intended) beer drinker. Now my drink of choice is sugar free cranberry juice and vodka.

replace food with a new hobby as I plan to do with golf...lol

I have now tried Chinese food twice and both time it had gotten stuck and ended up coming back up. Probably not the healthiest food choice to make but I thought I would be alright with just a small portion. Has anyone else had a problem with Chinese?

I just tried to set up a logging page at Dailyplate.com. I put in my info and set it to lose 2lbs a week. What do most of you eat calorie wise a day? To obtain 2lbs a week the number seemed a lot higher then I would of thought.

thats great, thank you so much. I will give it a try!

5-day Pouch Test- Menu suggestions?
ToddNYG replied to juliansmom2003's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This sounds interesting. I may try it next week after my fill on Tuesday. -
AHH!!! Still plateau'd Please help.. What else can I do?

[ Heres another question, When you guys get fills and are on the 2 days of liquid,then 2 days of soft foods.. and then so on do you guys still work out ? Do you think i should work out? I have gone from the doctor's office right after a fill straight to the gym, so no reason you couldn't go as far as I know. -
I had my last fill on 1/7/10 and since then I've lost another 14lbs or so. Now I feel like I have no restriction and I am scheduled to go back next Tues on the 9th of Feb for another fill. But my question is, is it possible to have no restriction and still have "stuck episodes"? I don't really feel any restriction and I feel like I can eat more then I should and then I will eat the wrong thing and it will get stuck, but not everytime.

I hear ya! If I'm busy at work or home and preoccupied with yard work or something I'm fine. But now in this terrible time of winter and stuck in the house I have to remind myself to get the hell out of the fridge or the cabinets. And it's not because I am hungry it's just a lifetime of bad habits.

Starting for freak out have some ???
ToddNYG replied to curlicue22's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my surgery on Nov 18th 2009 and I have had pizza and wings. Like you said not often but I have tried all the things I used to love. I had no problems. As far as things getting stuck you will unfortunately have to learn that all on your own. A lot of people suggest walking around helps. -
Thank you very much. I have had a great couple weeks of really trying to eat right and have spent a lot of time in the gym (nice now that all the New Years Resolution folks have already given up hahaha) So between that and the last fill I really have had a pretty good month. I am now looking forward to going next week and getting another fill and having another great month!
-
yea I have just never gotten that, I hear people say "oh gosh I'm starving" and i think to myself i don't ever remember feeling that way hahaha
-
Thank you and yes it all makes sense. I hope I get to the point soon where I just eat a small potion and I am full. I hope after this next fill I will really start to feel restriction. One big problem is I am never hungry, I eat just to eat or becasue it is there.

when did u get 1st fill?
ToddNYG replied to natismi's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got my first fill of 4cc's at 5 weeks out. I felt it just wasn't enough and went back a week later and got 2 more cc's -
mine is trb1577@aol.com
-
No I have not tried them. I just started shopping at Trader Joe's so I will have to keep an eye out for them thanks!
-
I wish that were the case, I am not eating too much. I have literally maybe 2 or 3 bites and I feel it get stuck and then I just pace around the house until I convince myself that it's coming back up.
-
well I had chicken and brocoli and that was no good. So I figured it was the chicken so this last time I had beef and brocoli and ended up with the same result.
-
Just curious what system or schedules people have to weigh themselves? Like how often? Where? I go each month for a visit to the doc's and also have a scale at work. I just recently got another scale for my house. I don't want to drive myself crazy everyday but the temptation is there always to take a peek.

My wife uses the Wii Fit and it looks fun amd I would like to try it. I have noticed that it says 300lbs max on the box for the board. Has anyone 300+ used it? Could I really damage it? Will the game tell me to get off and not work? I would hate to break it or ruin it for my wife because she enjoys it.
-
I was banded in November and after 11 days you should be fine to go away. But I would say booze is not a good idea, especially beer. As far as food by the 11th day I was onto creamy soups and protein shakes but that was all at home so not sure about going out to eat. Good luck!

Wii is a lot of fun and you will be doing stuff an won't even realize you are exercising hahaha.
