This morning feeling sooo discouraged so I ate a bowl of Apple Jacks. I just don't know what to do. If this surgery doesn't work what will I do? I started around 245 in April and weighed 222 this morning. The lowest I have been is 217. I am exercising on a stationary bike.

Scorpioqt ~ what is a naked chicken nugget and do you have a recipe for it? Most chicken is too dry for me to handle with my band and I'm looking for some chicken recipes that may be a little more moist. Thanks!

Try to stick in there. It looks like you are still new to your band and I am not sure how many fills you have had. This could be part of the reason you are losing slowly still, because you don't have good restriction yet.

This is a great thread to get ideas on what to eat. Make sure you are weighing and measuring your food and getting in your Water. Follow the rules that your doc gave you, that is something that will really help get you to your goal.

It can be frustrating at times. I was on a 4, close to 5, month plateau and I just started losing again.

Luluc gives good advice about mixing up your calories and exercise. That is something that got my weight loss going again. You can't eat the same thing and do the same exercise every day - you need to mix it up so your body doesn't settle into a rhythm.

Stick with this, it can be slow going, but you can do it!

Hey Becacloud...I like the Hood milk too. Much lower in carbs than skim and not soooo thin looking. Is that why you go with Hood. I think it used to be called Carb Countdown / now Calorie Countdown. I guess since the Atkins craze is gone they tried to reclass 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.
