I just couldn't stay away from the scale! I only went 3 days without weighing in before I caved!!! :thumbup:

However, I'm glad I caved in because I was beginning to rationalize fast food feeding frenzies! Now that I've seen the drop on my scale achieved by being good I can toss those massive cheeseburger dreams aside! :w00t:

I forgot when weigh in day is, shame on me it's been so long. Anyway, I'll put this one down even though I think it'll creep back up some. Had a gastro thing that I caught from my granddaughter for 2 1/2 days and have barely eaten so yeah, I'm going to lose some weight...lol The truer picture will be next week. :tea:

Poor Staindgal. My hubby is down with the flu. They put us both on tamiflu. I sprained my left ankle taking him to the Dr. We had 12 inches of snow over the weekend. I was very bummed about the ankle, because in December I tore my gastroc muscle in my right calf. So it really is a hindrance to exercise. This too shall pass right? Anyway, I did manage a bit of a loss...In view of the injury going to revise my goal for this month.

I can't believe I'm even getting close to "TWOterville". When I started this journey just about a year ago (3/24/07) I weighed 374 lbs.

Weighed myself yesterday and I'm down to 304lbs, that's 70 lbs gone!

I had my surgery on 10-25-07, it really is a life altering experience. Of course it has it's up's and down's - but I can honestly say that it has been more positives than negatives.

Looking forard to seeing numbers in the "TWO" zone. Everyone keep up the great work.

03-24-07 - 374lbs - Started Journey

10-25-07 - 349lbs - Surgery Date

12-05-07 - 325lbs - First Fill - 3cc's in a 10cc band

01-16-08 - 319lbs - Second Fill - 2 additional CC's

02-28-08 - 311lbs - Third Fill - 1 additional cc

03-11-08 - 304lbs - Isn't it great

Just getting over my girlie time. I won't weigh myself for another few days. Man! Why can't I just seem to control myself during that time? Love those salty things... and no first fill until April 11th. That really is awful, I feel like I can still eat too much. I know it's much less than before, but then again, I get hungry quick too. Someone help me!!

Glad to see everyone else doing so well! I will hopefully get some good restriction with my first fill. It's less than a month away.

We're halfway through this month, so I thought I would check in. Did I set the bar too high for myself this month? Who's to say, but I darn well am going to try my hardest to get to see 259 by the beginning of next month!

I'm not weighing until the end of the month (so I don't torture myself) but I can tell it's been going well. I hope you are all kicking but. I'm so excited for those about to hit TWOterville. Now, pardon my ignorance, I get 'ONEderland' but what is TWOterville? Does it have another meaning?

Hi insubordination,

Onederland refers to a three digit weight beginning with the number 1 (i.e. 167) and twoterville is the same, a three digit weight beginning with the number 2 (i.e. 243).

I hope it helps.

Cheers,

Mary

No, I think it was just made up - it sounds good though.

      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.
