Weight Loss Totals



Recommended Posts

Ghost: I haven't had much weight loss in the last 3 weeks. I'm not exercising much. I have got to get my butt in gear. I think the more you need to lose the faster it goes off. The closer to goal the harder the work. You've done amazing but I understand how it can get discouraging to get the last 10 lbs off. How do you feel after your PS? How nice to have a flat tummy!

I had lost 22 lbs pre-surgery and the rest since then--its easier for us guys and I certainly had enough to lose to begin with :)

I've lost 49 pounds. Tomorrow is my 2-month post op mark, so I'm hoping for 50! I've had one fill and I work out at least 1 hour cardio plus weights 6 times a week. I feel great!:whoo:

I am at 20 pounds and going in for my second fill on Wednesday. I had hoped for this to be going faster, but with a lower BMI to start with, I am trying to be realistic.

Also, who would have thought I would be DOWN 20 during the holidays???? Never happened before!

<p>Ok so what am I doing wrong you guys. I got banded on 10/3 and am only down 15 pounds. HELP</p>

And 10 of that was from the first week after surgery because I couldn't eat anything. I have had 2 fills already. I feel restricted and am only eating small meals but the weight doesn't want to come off. Is this not going to work for me?

Hi Everyone!

Sorry I've been missing really busy at work.

I'm down 28 and highly competetive so thank you all for hitting that 30-plus mark.

PVChickie I want to be down 40 by Jan 1 too!

Someone else posted they got stuck for 2 weeks and I have been too. I hate it but I know part of my problem is my work right now I work and sleep sleep and work. December 23rd I get my life back.

Congratulations everyone on doing great. No Tenacious Ten left behind!!!!

I have never been so happy about 22 pounds!

I will keep going, and plugging along, it is going to happen for ALL of us.

I'm ashamed to say I've only lost 15. I don't have any restriction but that's no excuse because I've been eating way to much crap. I can't seem to keep my greedy little paws out of the candy.:cry

I was banded oct 1 07.

I reached my first mini goal today! I was so excited.

I have lost a total of 47# since surgery.

I have along way to go! But it felt damn good to make that goal!!!!

      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.
