Way to go Lori! I'm a Crazy Ate too and I've only lost 33. That's funny that "only lost 33" is a concept now...

Anyway, feel proud of yourself and celebrate!

I'm stuck right now...my weight has not moved either way. I have my 1st fill tomorrow. But anyway, enough of me....keep it up!

Lori thats awesome!! I will be 35 in january and that's one of my goals is to be down 50 by my birthday. I was just banded 3 1/2 weeks ago and I'm down 20, so I'm hopeful that I can hit 50 by january. You're an inspiration!!

Thats awesome, i had my band 6 months (-2 days) before my birthday (which is coming up in a week) and i'm down 50 also. My goal is to be at 100lbs down by 1 year! Now more than ever i think its possible because i lost all that weight at not even an optimal fill level. Hopefully now that i'm in my sweet spot ( i think anyways, if not, i'm very close) itll come off a little easier.

Hey guys! I lost 20 pounds or so of the 50 on pre-op liquid diet. I just had by second fill the other day. I have not had any restriction until now. At least I think I have some restriction, I don't get mushies until this afternoon! I have been starving!

A lot of my success comes from my very supportive network of friends and family. Plus, I have young kids who keep me hopping! My job is also very busy and stressful at times, too. I think a lot of my weight loss has to do with staying so busy and moving! You gotta move your body!

Thanks everyone! My next mini-goal is to lose 60 by Thanksgiving! I will keep ya posted!

      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.
