  1. Read your blog posting on your new scale giving you weird readings. I'm not surprised as I had similar problems with a digital scale I bought at Costco a while back. Funniest thing is that it would give me different readings if I tried 2 minutes later. Very frustrating.

     

    I finally got fed up and bought an expensive ($90 CAN) Taylor model that had good review from consumer magazines.

     

    Now my only issue is that it's so accurate that not only will it give me the same exact weight 3 times in a row the same morning but it has also given me the same exact weight 8 days in a row, down to the same decimal as I fight off this plateau... : (

  2. Actually, it's 3 weeks of liquid diet followed by... 3 weeks of mushies. I still have a week and a half to go on the liquid phase and although I love soups and I'm used to protein shakes, I'll be happy to move on to a greater variety when this part of the process is done with.

     

    Wow, 5 days till you get re-banded, I really hope this go great for you this time. I remember waking up after surgery 10 days ago and I'm not sure I'd want to go through that too often! It took a good 5 days before the sore throat finally went away. And yes, thank you for asking, I have lost quite a bit since the beginning of the liquid phase and thankfully this will continue into the coming weeks.

  3. Going through the forums, I landed on one of you posts which led me to your blog. I haven't read the whole thing yet but I find your story telling to be quite compelling! ;-)

     

    I just got banded on June 25th and I'm midway through a 3 week liquid only diet. Can't wait to start the mushie phase!

     

    Anyways, thanks for the very interesting read and I wish you the best of luck with your upcoming surgery!

     

    Cheers!

  4. Thanks guys! : )
