I messed up somebody name on the spreadsheet!!! OMG, I clicked on a empty yellow box but it put my name above the empty one and I didn't know that you have to click the box below the one you need! Sorry!

I just joined and I put myself for an aggressive 10lbs. Late start but I need a kick in the butt to jump start and get the scale moving in the right direction.

I was worried that I wouldn't see a loss this morning because all week I kept going up and down, but I think my body finally let go of a little bit - I saw 223.9 on the scale.

I started walking up and down flights of stairs at work and doing more workouts, so I think my body was either holding on to my fat or it's muscle tone from all the up and down on the steps.

I see my doc for a fill on Friday. I'm hoping to get like a .1 in there. They didn't fill me the last time but I know I'm eating more now than I was two months ago at dinner, etc. I don't want to PB, but at the same time, I don't want to be wide open in the evenings, either.

Hope everyone else is doing well! :thumbup:

I think I should have made my goal a little harder. I am losing like a banshee! I am not bragging about, I am terrified of losing this fast. I feel like I am losing too fast. I have already hit my Halloween goal! Is this okay? I am kind of freaking out.

I love a challenge!! Banded Aug 6, 2010 and had first fill Sept 2. Not sure how I am suppose to feel. I can feel some restriction when eating certain foods, but can eat just about anything. I am a snacker and have been eating 6 small meals a day to compensate. This is not as easy as I thought it would be. I try and keep my intake to around 800 calories a day, mostly all Protein. Is this the norm??

That is what I did when I was trying to lose weight. I ate 3 meals that were less than 250 calories with 2 or 3 Snacks of less than 150 calories.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
