Well, Glo. You need to post more often. I miss you. And how am I supposed to keep up with "our support group groupie"? I got the biggest kick out of him the other nite. lol He was just too funny. Saw Lou at the dr.s office. She and her daughter. We had a support group meeting in the office waiting room. There were several people there asking questions and we just had ourselves a "seminar of sorts". lol.

I think I might just be rushing my fill some. It usually take about two weeks for restriction to hit. I just had lunch and I'm feeling tight now. Strange, huh? Oh well, I hope it works. I need to lose some more weight. Spring is here and baseball season is upon us. Gotta shed some more. I got Leslie Sansone's "Walk at home" dvd a couple of weeks ago. Since I don't have a job now, I can start using it more. There was a set of bands in there that are really cool. Made my arms sore the first couple of times I used them. Plus, I have other things going on that will help tone and get some of my flab in shape. I think it's about time to get started, so, talk to everyone later!

glo i agree lou looks great!!!! lisa i haven't run into you a wallie world lately, maybe i have and just didn't know your new skinny self.

i didn't think i could feel much difference in the restriction after the last fill for about 3-4 days and wham there is was so maybe that will happen for you lisa

Hey Susan! Glad to see you post too! Yes the meeting is Monday nite. I hope I can make it. I'm gonna try. Since I quit my day job, (lol) I'm back in my routine of going to Wally World, so I'll probably see you now. I promise I'm not so skinny that you won't know me. Still have that big ole lard butt. :thumbup: It's not hard to miss. Man, look at your ticker. It's moving pretty well now. Way to go!

Teresa....... girl. Start keeping a food diary. You may be stuck cause you aren't getting enough calories and your body is in starvation mode. You have to manage to get at least 800 per day. NO LESS! 1,000 to 1,200 is the best range for me. And try not to eat the same thing everyday, so you can trick your body into thinkin different. Different caloric intake. You know, you're a nurse and I didn't have to say that, but it was just a reminder. We all need reminding sometimes.

Glo..... I'm with you on the bikini thing. That is just gross to think about ME in a bikini. I think I have been having that same talk with God. lol I gotta get moving again. With summer coming on, maybe it will be easier. lol

Hey everyone else!!!! How are yall? Sugarbear, lo2us, Hogwild, plain and ALL the people that don't post anymore. Where are you and how are you?

Yall have a good day. Remember, stay away from that chocolate bunny! He's bad news! Hide in your box! lol

Woohoo Spring Break! I have a fitness assessment tomorrow at the gym and I've even managed to lose a wopping 2lbs with missing the gym for two weeks straight after this comfortable fill. I'm having a yard sale to sale ALL my old clothes. It's kindda hard to part with them, but I've gone down right at 5 sizes! :( One more size and I'm the smallest I've been since 19.

Thanks Hippmom for letting us know that the mtg had been cancelled. Of all mtgs ,I had loads of questions to ask. Well, guess I need to call.

Hippmom, I was hoping to see you, how have you been? Where do you take your dog?

Glad to see everyone is losing. Summer is coming and we are going to have to let those coats go. LOL

Lisa, I refuse to let a bunny of any flavor come into my home. But Dennis did bring a rabbit here to cook. :biggrin: I refuse to eat him too. LOL

A boiled egg is going to be my choice.

Hello all....checking in, since I saw Lisa scold some of us that don't regularly post (LOL). Things are great for me so far. I'm down almost 40 lbs, and will get my first fill on March27th. I'm excited. Maybe after my first fill, I'll be a little closer to y'all's weight loss stories. Good luck and, uh.....stay in the box.

Hi Sandra. Glad to have you on board. Good luck with the surgery, Thursday. I felt fine after my surgery. Went shopping, before going home. lol I sure got some strange looks, but I went. lol After the first few days, you will begin to feel a little "blown up". It's very important to walk and keep moving as much as possible. It will keep the gas they use during surgery moving out. Some use a heating pad, some a warm bath, but I think all of will agree, walking probably helps the most. You will be a little sore, but not extremely so. The incision site where the port is placed and that area will be tender for a few weeks, but the others won't be so bad. They are very small sites. You just keep us in mind if you have questions, we will be glad to answer, k?

Well, I got my exercise yesterday. Had two loads of dirt delivered to the house site. My hands are kinda achey this morning. They don't fit a shovel handle very well. lol But, I just kept thinking, this is soooo good for my abs, this is so good for that big ole bee-hind! This is really fun and Tanner is having a blast and before you knew it, I was so tired I couldn't move! lol

Yall take care today. It's supposed to be bad and stormy. Maybe, it will scare that chocolate bunny away! lol Stay in your box!

Oh, and Plain glad to see you post too! I try not to scold very often, but I like to keep up with everyone. Hope you are doing ok!

See yall!

      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.
