Gaffer 1 Posted May 1, 2007 Okay, I remember seeing a March goals, but we seemed to have skipped that for April so I am bringing it back for May. I will start with mine. - Clean up my diet, I have not been too good lately - Work out AT LEAST 3 days a week and strive for 4 or 5 - Get my weight down to 285lbs or my body fat down to 35%. I may add others as I think of them, but I need to get these out there to refocus myself. Canadian banders feel free to post your May goals here for all the world to see.

Donna D 1 Posted May 1, 2007 Well, since I am newly banded, I think I will try to stay with the post-op diet as best as I can. To be honest, I am going to my cottage for about a week this Thursday and I thought I might try a little popcorn. I'm on full fluids. Is that suicidal or what? NO NO NO May Goal - stick to the rest of my post-op diet till the end of may. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was rereading my post op diet materials last night and they keep stressing how important it is NOT to push. You don't want to risk hurting yourself or the band and I understand that popcorn may not be the easiest food. Please don't do it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeslieLee 0 Posted May 1, 2007 mmmm I think my goal will be to just keep on doing what I am doing and not to go too crazy when I go out for dinner before I start my pre-op. I am going to allow myself a few days of the last supper phase, I have to say though I am kinda not all that excited about it right now... lol Am I sick??? Or have I started to think more wisely. lol hmmm guess I will find out soon enough! Would be nice to drop another 10 pounds this month... guess I will try for that! 10 pounds gone before crossing to the banded side. -=crosses fingers, toes, legs, arms, eyes.... =- ^(^)%)HJP)(# tho0**-4)&%$ hmmm apparently I can't type like that!!
