Giving myself some credit



Recommended Posts

3 months post op and right now I'm avg 4 pounds lost a week! I've only had 1 fill. I'm keeping my portions small as I can & choosing the right food with no cheating. (Except a little at Xmas). Walking on treadmill twice a day. Lost over 60 lbs including preop diet! People think the band deserves all the credit, like if you get the band you're automatically gonna lose weight. It's give me the help I needed to do this but I'm working hard & making good food choices. I'm thankful for the band but giving myself some credit for my hard work & sacrifice.

I'm right there with you Titan. I too have 1 fill 3cc, no restriction yet.

My Dr came right out and told me it was all me and he also promised that the band you kick in soon to help me.

So yes, you deserve A LOT of credit! You're following the rules and winning.

Wishing continued success!

This post should be engraved and given out to every person with the courage to get the surgery. You have it in place and keep it going - look for new ways as you progress to challenge and expand the exercise portion : )

The Lapband didn't get you on that treadmill twice a day / you did : )

Hope in Your Future is Power in Your present!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
