November, the Thankful Month



Recommended Posts

Mine is simple: I am thankful for another year that I was able to spend with my family. This past year was a lot better then the one before and the fact that I made it through last year is something else that I am thankful for.

I have no idea what I'm most thankful for, there is so many to choose from. I am glad we have our lapband friends. Thanks for being here for me.

Hi Everyone, I started this thread and didn't post what I'm Thankful for.

Mine is my love of God and My Faith and Trust In Him. There have been some many times these last few months that I have needed financial help. He has brought me through each and every challenge that have come my way.

Next my continued Health. Through my ups and downs with this weight loss journey, he has helped keep me from going back to whence I came from. Even though I wanted to be at my weight goal from day one, my journey this far has taught me a lot. I and you are still learning but we will never, never give up. As the caption you've all seen, "We Are Still A Work In Progress".

So, with that said, we're still here and we still have a lot to learn on our way to our weight goal. I know I do.

Luv to you all and good health.

Hi All, just checking in. Haven't done bad since my last post. Just can't seem to break that 185lb loss. Back to 190lbs, making it abgain 15lbs to lose. Well, as long as I don't out weigh my new clothes, I'm good.

Hope you'll come back in December to log any results you have.

Take care....

Hi All, just checking in. I've just come to the realization that I'm a little depressed. Can't seem to concentrate to lose these last pounds. I keep telling myself I'm going to start back to excerising and don't. I so want a buddy partner that I've posted on several websites for one. You would think that someone would answer since they themselves say they're looking for a partner. How serious can they be.

Well, I've gained back those 8lbs I lost over the last few weeks. So, I'm back to wanting to lose 20lbs before the end of the year. Just barely staying in my clothes now. Don't want to shop for the next size to get into to wear. If I do, then it may be over for me for a while. I keep using my teenage daughter as an excuse not to go to the gym. She likes when I'm home when she comes in. And if she comes in before 8pm, I'l at the gym.

So, I have to buck up and do this. Once I get back into the swing of things I'm good for about 3 months maybe 4/5. But like everything I have to start first.

Well, that's all for me now. Hope you're doing well. Miss you all.

      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.
