Hi everyone,

I am new to this site. I was banded March 6, 2006. I have lost a total of 104 lbs, 101 under one year post op. I have stalled the last few weeks, so thinking it is time for a slight fill. Congrats to everyone!!

Candice:)

Candice: Congratulations! You have really zipped along! Do you have any pointers? I have lost 66 pounds, but the last month has been terribly slow. I lost the same 1 pound over and over. Did you have any long plateaus? I'm getting frustrated. What has helped you the most (besides your band)?

Hi Karey,

First off, thank you. What I have done to lose the weight. Well the biggest thing for me, was cutting out all sugars. I use only splenda or splenda products. I read all labels. I refuse to buy "fat free" as it has more sugar. I drink tons of Water, no pop, no juice or punces, I have One piece of fruit in my Breakfast shake, I don t have any chips, pop, or any other junk foods in the house. I do however eat popcorn. I try my best not to eat after 7 pm as well, unless it is the popcorn. I dont eat bread, rice, or Pasta. I usually take a small plate for my meals, eat my meat or chicken or fish first, then my veggies and then I will try to eat some potatos if I have room. I have been very lax with exercise, and I have plateaued or slowed down big time in the weightloss for the past 3 months. I will have to get back on the treadmill and hopefully back swimming again soon!

Candice: Thanks for the information. I think that I am doing about what you do, except I don't eat popcorn. I guess there is no miracle route, it just takes time and patience. You're doing great. Thanks for the inspiration!

All of you on this board are amazing! Congrats to each one. I dont know if you have any idea what an inspiration you are. I do have a question though. It seems that some lose the weight much faster than others. I am one of those slow losers. I had my surgery in Nov 2006 and have lost 37 lbs. While I am very happy with that, I must admit that I am envious of those who have lost 100 lbs in 6-7 months. What is your advise? What is your typical days' diet like? I know sometimes its the small things that make a huge difference. I am really interested to hear from this group. :D

Thanks.

      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.
