November/Christmas Goal



Recommended Posts

Awesome! You should put something like "Christmas Goal" on top of it, so people don't harass you and say "Sheesh... getting the lapband for a measley 12 pounds!?!" :thankyou: Or else put up your total lost ticker too... I love seein' it!

Thanks,

Dawn

You know... it doesn't make sense that your ticker doesn't work when you're at home... tickerfactory tickers are just URL's, and not something that's saved on your computer... I use a computer at work (right now) and at home, and my ticker shows up all the time. Hmmm... weird.

I had picked a Christmas goal before I saw this thread (picked it a couple days ago), but am gonna join in. I'm really hoping Santa can take 20 pounds from me.:grouphug:

And by then I'm gonna make it a goal to get in 3 hours of exercise a week.:)

Hi guys,

I am reporting how I am doing on my goal (see the ticker...) and wondering if this is the place to ask about this. I am dizzy... has anyone else felt this way? I am wondering if my blood pressure is low. I was going to get a fill in two weeks and then I thought... no I am doing okay with no problems so I won't muck around with it yet. But, this week I notice that I am full really quickly (i.e. 1/2 an English muffin is too much today).

Anyone have any ideas about the dizziness?? I would love to hear your thoughts!!!

I would ask this in a new thread, OR maybe even in the 'general' area, so anyone (not just canadians) sees it and answers.

I get dizzy too, every now and then. Why not go get your BP checked, even at one of those drugstore BP machines?

Are you losing consistantly every week, or have you lplateaued?

(or even do a search for "dizzy", and you'll find probably 100 people who asked the same thing! :rolleyes: )

Gosh, I finally got the extra 5 pounds of McFlurry fat off I put on before my fill. So now I'm back to 277. But alas, all the craft and bake sales of Christmas. I've been realy good, no going crazy, but goodies everywhere!!! Think I better add more extra-cirricular activity:eyebrows: .

I too broke down at the pressure of the bake sale... we had one at work to raise money for the 'social committee". 2 separate days, I bought: Peanut Butter fudge, and a little plate with a piece of peanut butter marshmallow square, homemade Reese's PB cup, a brownie, and a shortbread cookie. Someone slap my hand!

      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.
