October 2006 Bandsters!



Recommended Posts

I am right there with you guys. Yesterday I ate an ice cream cone, sun chips with dip, a few spoons of fat free cool whip, went and worked out and came home and ate more sun chips with dip and more cool whip. Oh and I had some sourcream and onion potato chips. So healthy, huh?

I know it isn't real bad, but I feel like a pig.

Jules you're making me hungry!! :) I LOVE Sun chips. I've been doing better than past few days, but I haven't been to the gym in about 2 weeks. Work has been crazy!!! Today I weighed in at 190...I really, really want to get to 180 something for my weigh in on Sunday even if it's only 189.8. Ha ha! Cross your fingers...

Geez girls....I can't eat sweets! I'd love to but they do something to me. Ever since my surgery, if I eat ice cream or chocolate......it makes me hornier than hell!!!!!!

So, my snacking consists of crackers/cheese or popsickles. Maybe an ocasional dish of apple sauce. Oh yummy. LOL. I do the sugar free popsickles. Sort of helps with the amount of fluids I'm supposed to take in each day.

But if I screw up and have a ice cream bar........yikes! Cold showers for me! Whew.

Jessica,

At least I have been working out this week. That helps offset the pigout day. I am going to meet some other bandsters tonight at a Mexican restaurant. I am having at least one margarita! If they are good, I am having 2. lol. I will get back on the lap band wagon tomorrow.

SO STRANGE to log on and see what the topic is.

Last night I had homemade chicken Soup for dinner. I put tons of extra wide noodles in my soup because I love them. I don't think I've had regular Pasta since surgery because of the carb cravings I get after. Well, last night I had the soup and went to a meeting. at the meeting was birthday cake which I had 1/2 pc of (don't even really like bday cake). Came home, more soup. Woke up in the middle of the night and had snack size bag of doritos, 1 rice krispy treat and 1 kudos bar.

What the f#%k ????????????

I too am waiting for the arrival of my Muscle Milk. I am trying to do really good today to make up for the late night binge but I did have some ff from McD.

Oh well, we are only human. We will do better tomorrow!!!

Muscle Milk is pretty good! i bit the bullet and purchased some at Vitamin Shoppe. i bought the Peanut Butter and chocolate and the banana creme.

i've only tried the PB/choc and it is defintely the best shake i have had (w/ Protein, etc in it). i mix it w/ 12 oz of skim milk and drink it about 1 hour before i work out. i cant really taste the peanut butter part of it, but i'd buy it again (on amazon).

Shirley PM'd me the first few days she joined Oct bandsters thread as I was truly amazed as well. She actually lost over 100 pounds prior to having lapband.

Hi All, I'm asking Shirley again how she has lost 147lbs since 10/31/06? OH MY GOSH!!!! How did she do this? That's an average of approx 50 lbs a month? Right?

Am I just confused? or not understanding the weight loss stats?

I can't get over the quick weight loss.

Well, it doesn't look like I am going to meet my challenge for the Valentine's Day deal, but that is ok. I am still happy with what I have lost so far. You don't lose weight when you drink two VERY large margaritas. lol. But that is ok, I enjoyed them!

I hope everyone has a great day today. TGIF!!!!!!!

      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.
