-hug- It happens hun. No worries. We all make mistakes in what we eat.

You know what I wish that was the case, then I would feel better. I haven't been eating crap, at least then I would know why I gained. :teeth_smile:

But thanks everyone. I will pull on my big girl pannies and get over it. I can not wait to get my fill. I swear to god I am gonna die before then....ugh...

BBK, I gained over 20 pounds when I was unfilled. I was absolutely disgusted and mortified so I know EXACTLY how you are feeling right now.....BUT I've lost almost 5 of it already in 2 weeks of being back on my game and with a decent fill level. You'll be surprised how quickly you will be able to lose it when you have your band working with you again. If I can lose it, then you most certainly can too!! *hugs*

I'm at work and don't want to be. Damned stock market - I come in to work hoping for some optimism but each day another bank or company is going under. Clients are flipping out (with good reason) and I am trying to keep them calm. I have no answers and just as many questions as them. I hate work right now...I'm ready for a turn for the good. Other than that Happy Flippin' Monday :-)

Thanks. I am hoping that the first fill will work right away. I know here's to dreaming. I feel like such a failure though, it sucks. I feel like I have the whole world looking at me and do this.

I am sure this is remnants of my f*ed up mother beating me up....ugh...

BBK - you are not a failure. Look at how far you have come and what you have gone through to get where you are. So you've hit a stumbling block...you will overcome it. You know how and what to do...you will eventually get to your sweet spot. Hang in there and don't give up. (hugs)

Sorry, Gone 4 ever,

No takers here. I'm just happy that the "student from hell" didn't come today. He hasn't been here for 3 1/2 days. Must be my payback for being a "student from hell" when I was in school.:biggrin:

I HATE people who trash talk---and don't have the balls to say things to my face!

I recently went through some pretty serious surgery---and had been going in for IV fluids for a week, and because of that and the dehydration that sent me there, my arms were a mass of black bruises from blown IV lines.

Rick's secretary just told me she had to line out a couple of the women who's husbands play softball on the company team with us. I being unable to play was sitting in the stands, and took off my light jacket, and they made comments later at the late game (I was give out and went home) that they saw tracks on my arms--------and that was what they suspected, they knew I couldn't have lost that much weight otherwise!

I have never hid my being banded, and have spoke to several who work there about it. But these were the snobby ones who would never acknowledge me even existing when I was at my biggest, and they hate their husbands laughing and having a good time with any of us on the team, when they are not in the field these women stand behind the dugout and are quite insistant their DH's stay with them. They whine non stop.

But yep now I am a druggie!! AAarrggghhh!!!

I personally cannot wait til the next game---could be tonight, but I am thinking tomorrow night. Gonna have me a little talk with their DH's! Because that will bug the crap out of them!!! THEN I will talk to them!

BBK You have been to hell and back.I would have gained 50. It's not your fault they messed up your band. You'll have it off in no time.

You are all lucky you can read and post here at LBT from work. I wish I could.

Kat--- I KNEW IT! I knew you were a druggie! lol.... what a bunch of bitches. (I am not very politically correct today.)

Denise--I must say I am tired of walking through fire, I am so over it. I need a break.

I am at school all day today (I am a student) so I should be paying attention now but I don't..lol....I am a 4.0 student so WHATEVER!

I appreciate all of your support. Being a hero, is sometimes a heavy robe. I thank all of you for reminding me I don't have to be perfect all the time....

I <3 you all.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
