  1. Thank you! I just saw that you left me rep last week! And for my whiney post, too! LOL Happy Thursday!

  2. Hey,

    I haven't seen you online at lapbandtalk.com I hope you are doing okay. Having a good week? I got best loser this week at my tops group. Which was very motivating. Also, I posted some pictures that are new on my profile. I am pretty pleased with the diffrence 56lbs makes! How much have you lost all together? Just wondering where and how you have been.

  3. Hi! How are you? Like your photo. So how are you doing?

    I am struggling this week. I am stressed and want to eat. I am suppose to be cleaning and throwing out my stuff but I haven't been too successful. The kitchen guys are coming tomorrow at 9:00 AM and I need this place presentable. UGH! My next fill isn't until April 30th. I dropped down to 199.5 for about 4 hrs and am back up to 202. Enough about me, how are you?

    Enjoy this beautiful weather!

  4. Hi Shannon, I had the band done march 25th in mexico with dr. ortiz, very good experience, I finally got to start eating real food this week as he is pretty conservative and we stay on full liquids for 3 weeks post op, since starting my pre op diet, I have lost 25lbs but figure I will hover around here at my current weight till I get my fills, I had also lost some weight prior to the preop diet, so I am actually down 59 so far. The part I am finding the most difficult is not being able to drink with my meals.

  5. Hi.

     

    Thanks for the info. I went to see Dr Pietrse the wife of Dr.Afriedi and she called someone when we were there , Dr.Jim I presume , and they said to try the Dr. in Sexsmith first and if he had trouble then he would do us at the hospital. Ther eare 2 of us my daughter and myself so we'll se how it goes. We are having our first fills on the 6thof may. How many weeks after your surgery did you have your first fill? Ho did you surgery? I may have read it some were but do not remember. thanks so much for getting to me, I really appreciate it.

    This is the first photo I am 5 weeks post op.
  7. Two more weeks and I get to schedule surgery!

  8. One week and One day until surgery!!

  9. It has been a week and a half since surgery and I have lost only about 8 pounds. From what I have seen and heard from others about their weight loss, this doesn't seem like the norm. What am I doing wrong?

    1. dfav3412

      dfav3412

      I'd rather lose the 8 lbs than gain 8 pounds....lose the word "only" when it comes to losing weight because "only" minimizes your awesome accomplishment.

      BladeFox

      Way to go PuppyChow (HA!) I lost a pound over the weekend as well. Two more pounds away from my next '0'!!!!

  17. 3 Weeks post op. I see my surgeon tomorrow regarding the pain I'm having. Hoping all is okay with me - otherwise everything else is going great!!!

    1. green*eyed*girl

      green*eyed*girl

      What kind of pain are you having my dear?

    2. LilMissDiva Irene

      LilMissDiva Irene

      A lot of surgical incision pain. I did see him and he said I'm actually progressing really great. My pain is normal, I just need more healing time. =) I can live with that!

       

  18. Less than two weeks away from the big day! All I can say is wow.

  19. My weight loss has stalled the last two weeks and it's only been a month since my surgery. I'm down 27 lbs so I shouldn't complain but I'm getting upset about it moving so slow.

    1. JJ Schlic

      JJ Schlic

      I am in the same boat. My surgery was June 24. Initially I was losing 1 pound/day, but I realize that a lot of that was fluid and swelling from the surgery. Now I am at about 1 pound/every 3 days. My complaint is that I am still very low energy and nauseas. I was hoping that with nearly 30 pounds gone and 5 weeks post op, I would have been feeling better.

      I was very lucky that the surgery recovery was smooth sailing. No nausea and started eating solids week two as per the doc. I'm feeling good. I just thought the weight would fall off but you know what? It took years to gain it all so losing it will take time. Doc said it's better to lose 2 lbs a week than lose it fast and your skin sags. I weighed myself this morning and I finally dropped 2 lbs so I guess it will work out. Keep me posted on your progress.

  20. Lost 7lbs in the past few weeks, I'd like to be excited but I'm so sick its hard to be...

    1. BeagleLover

      I think you need to call your surgeon!

    2. Heather_8.1.14

      Heather_8.1.14

      She's quite aware. I'm basically on a protein shake/soft foods diet until my surgery next Friday. I saw her today for the final appt. All is well :)

      Fantastic! Good to hear.

  21. wao i really tho my weight lost eventually was going to speed up.. but nothing.. losing about 1 per week.. no bueno. i was hopping for an amazing weight loss story to post.. but no.. i guess i just have to look at thr positive in it.. at least im not gaining weight :)

    1. BladeFox

      BladeFox

      I am the same way. No major weight losses since the first month out, just slow, slow, slow, and steady. No weight gains - good, but no major weight losses either.

  22. I'm a little bit worried. My husband is really suffering with stomach flu. My daughter and son in law had it last week. This morning I woke up with a queasy stomach and all I want is water. My protein shake made me feel ill. If I start vomiting, do I need to call my doctor?

    1. Chelly

      Chelly

      Yes vomiting is bad....

      It can effect your staples inside.

      Get Unjury protein chicken soup it has 20g of protein in it or some isopure drinks because they have 40g of protein in each bottle. They say they can be hard tasting but you get used to them.. You have to have protein. The last suggestion is have unflavored protein around to put in crystal light and get your protein that way when you are sick.

      Be well.

  23. So, I am back in school studying for my AA in Graphic Design. I will finish up next June. I am very excited! Working Full time and taking two classes every 5 weeks would not be possible without WLS. I have regained my self confidence and can do attitude. It is so nice not to feel defeated all of the time!

      Good for you! Keep up the great work, congrats!!!

  24. Just wanted to say . . . . never give up. After 5 weeks of back and forth with UHC peer to peer and 2 denials, I have finally been approved. Got my pre cert and surgery date for gastric sleeve 8/25.

  25. Finally broke that stall...lasted 3 weeks and was so frustrating!

    1. nx4slim

      nx4slim

      I'm worried that I'm eating the wrong thing so I'm trying to find out what other people are eating who are having success. Maybe you can just give me one day. Also was your break through a large weight loss or a small one?

    2. BladeFox

      BladeFox

      A big WHEW and congrats on your break!
