Update: I didn't make it all. I had a plateau that is just now moving. We won't discuss all the chocolate and Desserts that have been floating around :)

Congratulations to all that made your goal!! As for the rest of us, we deserve congratulations as well for taking the steps to a healthier life - it's just not reflected as well on the scale as we would like!! :(

Gweniper:

Congrats for making your goal.

Update - I didn't reach my short term goal of 230, but I'm at 231.6, close enough for me. Next challenge - losing 100 by 1/26/08 my 6 month bandiversary.

Congratulations to all of you that met and exceeded your goals. And to those of us who didn't, keep on plugging away. Think of it positively. I'm positive that I gained ten pounds during the Holiday season of 2006, this year I actually lost.

Here's to seeing less of all of you in 2008!

Sue thank you

I usually don't use my home scale as we weigh at the docs office for official but 2 days in a row it read 215 so I used it. now I will wait until thursday to update my ticker as I see the doc then. hopefully it is still 215.

Good luck with you goals. my next one is to be 192 by March 8. !00 pounds lighter than last march when they started me on metaformin for pcos and pre-diabetes

So My goal was 197 pounds (12 pound loss) and I made it for a day, then up a pound then down 2 pounds then up 3 pounds... Cramps and everything else tell me my body is doing just what it is supposed to. Trying not to let that number have more power than necessary. It is what it is, right! perfect.

You guys are great. I missed being on the board while I was out of town so much. It is incredible to me how much a difference in my sense of "support" it makes to just read this board.

Not being on the board feels just like "Isolating" with food used to. Yucky! I think I will take my laptop with me from now on. Doing this "alone" is, well, lonely!

Thanks for you guys in the world....

I missed my goal by .7 lb but happy with the result anyway, especially considering the holidays and all that food. Congratulations to everyone who made it and to everyone who could have... we just need to be congratulated for getting the band and changing our lives.

      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.
