Road to "TWOterville"

I just realized...4 lbs until Twoterville and 12 lbs until I've lost 100. Can I do it by August 15th?? If so, that will make August one hell of a month for me!!!

Go Marcy, Go Marcy!! Woohoo! I'm so happy for you!

I'm coming around the bend though. I was at 300 even this morning. I'm going away for the weekend and I hope to be 299 (or less) when I weigh again on Monday morning.

Talk to yall soon. Hey Marcy, do you get a present for reaching Twoterville? I need a new wallet and I'm going to spend more than I normally would, I think, and get something fancy.

Hit Twoterville sometime between July 6 and July 12 (went from 301.08 to 296.06, but I don't weigh everyday so I don't know exactly when I got there). Twoterville rocks! Especially after being SO close to 400 lbs...

I'm 10 lbs away from having lost 100 lbs. I have roughly 6 weeks before my 6 month bandiversary. Here's to hoping, and hoping, and hoping I can Celebrate 100 lbs lost by September 1!!!

Come on, Julie! I am waiting for you here! Frankly, it didn't occur to me to get a present. Maybe if I hit my September goal. It's a tough one, but I'll try.

Wheetsin, you ROCK!! I can only dream of doing so well.

I'm down 15 lbs since surgery . My current goal is 10 lbs which would bring me to 253 from 281 at surgery. I just got a fill on Monday and so far so good. I feel great and its nice to have a little restriction.

Rock on with your bad self.

I wish I had the self discipline to not weigh every day. Maybe after I am a few months in.

I got my third fill on Thursday and it seems to be just what I needed. I'm down to 307.4 and hope to be out of the 3's in another few weeks. My all time high was 440 and I LOVE the feeling of being able to see that scale leave high numbers. Keep up the great work everyone.

Ahhh, despite a not so perfect food weekend (I was traveling), I had a soft landing into Twoterville this morning, when my scale gave me the friendly number of 298.

I feel really good and not at all depressed that I've got a long time to get to know Twoterville. I was prepared for a little depression (I'd heard that it's common), but I feel good.

Come on, Elisabeth, LapBandit, BPM and the rest! The line on the left at the border moves faster, but the attendant isn't as cute.

Wink,

I am SLOWLY crawling towards Twoterville. I feel like a drunk trying to walk home. LOL I know I will make it. I got on the scale and I have lost another .5 a pound. that is a total of 2.5 pounds since my surgery on the 10th. slooooooow. but i know it will speed up. i am still nursing a cold i got from being intubated. i think that might be keeping me from losing. i start fish and eggs today, so i am sure with the added Protein and the lowered carbs that my weight will start to drop some, and my drunken crawl will sober into a buzzed stagger towards the border.

I was 306.2 this AM so I'm approaching the border. LOL. The last fill really gave me proper restriction and I'm on vacation this week from work so I'm staying away from food and doing tons of projects in and outside of the house.

Hi everyone :)

OK I think I have pretty decent restriction now, still need a little more to reach that sweet spot. But despite good restriction this last weekend knocked me on my heiny. We are in the middle of a major heat wave, I haven't wanted real food because of the heat so I turned to ice cream the last several days and the first solid food I had was fried chinese food, I had to go slow but I got it in. And the worst is I started drinking diet coke again. So here I sit with the scale totally stuck. And me stuck in a major bad habit of diet soda. Today I reslove to get back on track kick out the soda and no more pouch packing! oh and no more ice cream unless it's my birthday :jaw: As for another thread once we all get to twoterville, let's all stick together and have a "journey through twoterville" where we can hang out and encourage each other till we are ready for a onederland challenge :waytogo:

      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.
