Wombat, you're doing GREAT! Hang in there, plateaus don't last forever...it only SEEMS that way! ;)

I was getting really close to my goal of 208, so I moved it to 205...

Funny thing, I was only hoping to maintain over the holidays...I've been indulging in some holiday sweets...I went to the doc yesterday and STILL lost 6.5 pounds in 4 weeks! I LOVE my band!!!!!!!!

Thanks MM!! I know a lot of it is the stress at work and I haven't made the best choices. Exercise is not an option with the long days I'm putting in so I've got to get my diet back in order!!! I moved all of 0.2; but thank God it's in the right direction ;)

:clap2:So FINALLY - broke into the 170's. Had a feeling the second fill would start things going after all the cardio I've been doing, but it might be the chunk of "thick auburn wavy hair" that got chopped today. 14 inches going to "Locks of Luv" , I feel lighter -

My Dr is more aggressive that some I see here, Have my 3rd fill scheduled the day after XMas, Might not need it .... Not hungry at all!

Good Luck All~

Thank you all. I got to say, this has been the easiest time for me since I got the surgery. Maybe I have finally found the sweet spot. I am hardly hungry anymore, and when I do eat, I get full fast, and stay full for many hours. It is about time. After more that 6 months, and over 8cc's, I was beginning to think that it would never work for me.

      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.
