My goal was 199- I have just a couple more days, but I'm pretty sure I'm not going to make it- I will make 199 for my goal next month :( I wanted to be out of these 200s but I know it's not a race, guess I should be happy that I didn't gain during holidays.

Did not meet my goal of 199, but 5 pounds lost in the month of December - I'm gonna take it! You would not believe all of the junk food I passed up! Lol So much food!!!

Next month 199 is my goal & hopefully I will be out of the 200s for good! Good riddance to 42 pounds that I've lost this year thanks to being banded!! One hundreds here I come for 2014!!!

Well, I did not make my goal but that's okay -- looking forward to January. Plus I think I may be in one of those places where my body is about to let go of a few pounds. I seem to hold then drop, with a little up and down on the scale in-between to keep things interesting.

Overall a three pound loss in a month when I might have seriously gained is pretty great. Also I am in the process of getting fills to find restriction and I know in this two-month post-op phase prior to green zone I am basically just dieting.

I did not exercise every single day of December as I hoped, but I'm doing pretty well with that.

Checking in: December first I was at 217; my goal was to lose five pounds by today. This morning I weighed in at 211 so I hit my weight goal and went over it by one pound! Exercise goal was completely unmet due to a stress fracture brought on by too much exercise. So I'm currently on crutches :(

Happy New Year everybody! May 2014 cover you with good health, boundless energy and new goals to meet and exceed.

Well I almost hit my goal, went to the doc today for my second fill but doc decided not to fill me because I dropped 6.5 lbs on 2.5ccs in 2 weeks and only expects 4 lbs in 2 weeks. Im 319 and wanted to be 318 but im happy because I have lost 59 lbs some on my own 2 months before surgery but 27 pre op & post op. Excited for 2014!!

      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.
