Just remember, everyone, when you get one of those urges to "live on the edge", it may come back and haunt you at any time!!! lol

DeLarla made me do it!!

Sorry to be so incommunicado - life with BF has been a dream come true, and we've been traveling every weekend and running around during the week once I get home from work, and it seems I barely have time to turn around these days.

My eating has not been so mindful these past few weeks, and I had not been in the habit of eating three full meals a day any longer, particularly not mostly in restaurants where there is always bread and potatos offered/included, so I have crept out of my 10lb "safety zone" as of Monday - +14.5 pounds from my low of 200.5. ;)

I know that once we stop eating out and I get back into my walking routine all will return to normal, but being tired anyway, I confess I'm feeling a little down. Nothing like before, of course. But I need to start asking those hard questions again before I choose what I eat, and why...

Lisa G., it all makes sense now, knowing that you're just now seeing the bra pics... lol On a regular day, no, I wouldn't post the saggy boob collage. But you never know what I might do on one of those "wild hair" days!!

:laugh

Wild hair days....whats that like I wonder. Maybe once I lose more weight like you and Delarla I'll start riding motor bikes and posting boob pics! Hey, I might even combine the two. I can see it now...Delarla can I borrow your bike and Donali your bra for the pics?

Donali-

I was hoping that your quietness was a result of having wonderful times with your new live in lovaaaa :-).

Sorry to hear that you're struggling. My heart goes out to you and I think of you often.

One of the things I've learned since banding (and I'm sure you already know this but I just wanted to give you a friendly reminder) is that there is sometimes GOOD stress in our lives- any change can create stress and trigger old habits- even good stuff. Try not to be too hard on yourself and keep tabs on that black and white thinking!!!!!!

I just hope you know that you've got a bunch of people here rooting for you and will love you no matter what!

Megan

He was in Mannheim.

I like this new format, for the most part, but I'm missing a bizillion threads, I'm afraid... It's like the new posts are being automatically marked read before I get to them, and I miss the "Get New Posts" buttons that linked to recent posts whether they'd been read or not...

Learning curves - I hate 'em... :P

I had to do a search to find this one. ;)

      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.
