1 Year Today



Recommended Posts

Well today is my 1 year band anniversary. I guess I expected to be at my goal by now since I only wanted to lose 85-90 pounds but I have managed to get off 53 pounds so I guess if you add that up its about a pound a week. I feel amazing I love the way I look and the way clothes Fit me. I guess the only thing that really bothers me is what number the scale shows! I want it to say 150 but it won't go past 175 but I am

Very close and I know I will be there one day! I haven't been working at it as hard as I could have here lately due to pinch nerve, cyst on ovaries and possible endometriosis! I'm a ball of mess! Just happy I have lost what I have and I'm not going back!!!

Congratulations on your 1 yr and your weight loss Kim. You are doing great. It was a year for me in July too. I agree with you..I have not reached my goal weight yet, but I am a bunch thinner than I was a year ago and it has been worth it. Would not go back to the old me..I like me and my band..I don't miss the 104 pounds that I lost along the way. Keep up the good work.

      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.
