Ok so it looks like I might make my goal. I have to bust a move in the next week though. It'll be hard! 7 pounds in a week. Can that be done? I finally got weighed today. My scale died on me a while back (over use! haha) so I haven't weighed in probably 6 weeks now. I got another fill. The last two lapband appts I've lost 11 pounds and this appt I only lost 7 so I got a 0.2 fill. See how I do.

You guys are doing great!

Josette,

Try low carbing it for a week, bet you'll hit your goal!!

low carbing it really works for me. i am down almost 20 pounds in 2 weeks.... of course i TOTALLY blew it tonight (i wanted Italian and ate Italian) and tomorrow is the Police concert, so low carb will be hard then too. So i will go back to low carb on Thursday.

i refuse to go on a 'diet' so i can't "go off"...

Well my least favorite time of the month is here and has me pinned down today at home. I swear I'd gladly donate my parts if anyone needs them...lol I'll take my 1 pound though I'm sure I won't make my goal. Do we want to start the next monthly challenge at the beginning of August or should we have it from the 15th to 15th so we don't lose motivation?

Congrats ladies on all your victories!!

Okay, I stopped at my PCP's office today to get some lab slips and I jumped on the scale while I was there (after all, it's Wednesday), and I have to keep reminding myself this will all change soon enough and the scale will go back up for a while...but...W O O H O O !!!

      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.
