BTW, I lost 8 lbs so far, in one week!! Yeah-hoo!!

Three weeks today that I sent my paperwork into bc bs of minnesota and still haven't heard. This is pretty frusterating! Anyone else have this long of a wait?

One week out and still having alot pain on left side. How long does this last?

3 weeks post-op today and down 25 lbs & 10.5 inches. Goal I would like to be below 220lbs for my vacation - I can do it!

had my pre-op final appt today with the surgeon and the nutritionist. I can't believe my surgery is two weeks away! Picked up all my shakes, soups and bars for my pre-op diet which starts on Wednesday. So close now!! )

2 week’s post-op – all is going well. I am down another 7.5 lbs since surgery on Feb 9 for a total of 22.5 lbs.

i am feeling good finally !!!! lost 28 pounds in 5 weeks !

Stupid liquid diet. All I can think about is food! I think my surgeon might be a bit sadistic to put me on a 2 week clear liquid pre-op diet. Starving!

i feel like myself again! port site not hurting anymore and gas pains in left shouulder almost 100% gone!!!YES!!!!! COMING UP ON WEEK 3!

I had to call and change my appointment.. I wasn't schedule to see the Dr. until August. However, this weekend I was able to eat things that I normally couldn't have eaten.. It was like I didn't even have the band.. I haven't lost any weight in two weeks either.. I am kinda of upset about that.. but I am going to try to make sure that I use myfitnesspal more..trying to be positive instead of negative.. i think i need a check up..

I have rheumatoid arthritis and it has decided to settle in my jaw. Treatment? 2 week liquid diet.

Haven't lost much the last week and a half even though I'm kicking my butt at the gym. Oh well. I'm down a clothing size and I am under a 100 in terms of how much I need to lose

Hello Everybody new to the site....I will be having surgery the second week in July cant wait

Tomorrow I start my 2 week pre- op diet... Here we go!

Had half a cc removed last week and I feel GREAT! Energy level is back up, exercise back up and attitude much improved. I got too caught up in "not" eating too much! I'm up 3 pounds, but I know that will come off as I'm able to get back up to speed with my exercise! Sometimes all your really need is a little removed!

Bandy is one week old today! It's about time she start letting me sleep through the night.

Only six more days until my favorite sister, Chelsey Helm, gets here for a week!

Frustrated at the scale not moving. But then it does that for me. It moves well for a week, then stays for 2. Grrrr

Just realized that I'm down 2.6 pounds in the past 5 days. Yay! It's nice to see after 2 weeks no loss

My goal is to loose 50 lbs before my vacation on Apr 27. I have lost 40 lbs, so i am close, but i am preparing myself to miss my goal. I will celebrate where I am, and where I have been while acknowledging that I made some mistakes that kept me from making my goal. I LEARNED alot these past 7 1/2 weeks. AND like I PROMISED myself, I will enjoy the weight loss journey and not suffer through it. I can honestly say - I am so happy and proud.

1 week post-op. Feeling pretty good. Sneezing hurts. Lost 5 lbs already!

After 2 weeks of no weight loss, finally 3 pounds down...

Dear Lord, time for bed got to be up in 4 hours, but at least the house is clean, I have clean clothes and all three kids are sleeping happy like.

can't wait until i feel normal. i am beginning to wonder if that's going to happen! slept 12 hours last night and the night before. still super slow and lethargic. dr's office trying to find me another dr to see about the chest pains since mine is out of town. ugh. 2.5 weeks in and wondering if i made a huge mistake by doing this.
