Countdown to Onederland!



Recommended Posts

Hey Onederland Warriors! Hope all is well!

Dot - Congrats on getting solidly into Onederland! :clap2: That is awesome sister! I'm glad that fill did the trick!

Dynamo - You are sooo close, keep going girl!

Jaqui - you can conquer that one pound! Up the Water, increase the exercise, decrease the carbs! Break through it sister. You can do it!

Well - I'm still holding @ 207! I thought for sure I would break past that... but not yet. I can't wait for my fill on Tuesday. I still have the sore throat, what's up with that? I think there is some kind of creeping crud going around that starts with a sore throat.. either that or sinus drainage, I guess. On a positive not... I walked 3.5 miles yesterday @ 3.5 MPH and a 5% incline, did 2.5 miles on the Airdyne(exercise bike with arm movement handles) and an hour of pretty difficult free weights and weight machines. Yeah me!

Where are the rest of our warriors? Check in with us folks! We miss ya!

I was banded in November and am down 40 pounds to 215. I fit into all these clothes that used to be too tight. It's a GREAT feeling. And people around me are noticing the weight loss.

I love this forum.

Kim... I am officially joining your onderland thread! I have 5 pounds to go to be 199. I have been a bad bandster the past month or so since I stopped skating because of my knee injury. I got pretty depressed and found myself drowning my sorrows in M&M's. I am a newly commited bandster and will see onderland before my bday next month dammit!! I have knee surgery coming up in less than two weeks and I am getting myself back to better eating habits.

Breakfast today:

Edge shake

Packet of instant oatmeal

lunch today:

tuna salad w/wheat crackers

So far I have drank 5 16.9oz bottles of Water.

Fluffer... We were banded the same day!!

Dynamo.... woohoo girl! Your sooooo close!

Can't believe I'm writing this but I think I fit into the Onederland club!

I have 8 pounds to go and this time I think I'm gonna do it!

I had a fill last week to 7.5 and I'm restricted really good this time, I'm at a sweet spot and I'm soooo happy. Now I have to stay away from the candy and I will make it..................

      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.
