me too. I need to lose a total of 90 pounds but it has been tough lately. The first 24 were with pre and post surgery diets and that was a breeze then the last ten was a fight. I have had two fills with some restriction. I feel like when I eat I am full and then a short while later I can eat again. I don't know if that means I need another fill or not. I just hate to pb and I do that alot now.

Hi all!

I have 75#s to go and am glad this thread was started. This band seems to be the best thing I have ever done for myself and enjoy learning from some of you wih more experience. Isn't it great to actually be able to see some downward movement from the scale? ? Take care!

I can't figure out if this is 50-100 LEFT to lose, or 50-100 lbs loss as the original goal. My original goal was 75 lbs, and I have 29 left to lose. Where do I belong????:help:

Very cool new forums!!! I had a total of 37.4kgs/83lbs to lose and now five months out I have only lost 23 so long way to go yet! Getting a fill on Friday so fingers crossed it will get things moving.

Question about forum - so when we get below 50 left to lose do we change forum groups??

Ok love the new forum lay outs !!!

My way of thinking is that is should be how much you had to lose from your date of being banded - not what you have left to lose..

I had 90 to lose from the date I got banded - have lost 59.5 have 30.5 to go to goal..

jmho.....

Thats what I was thinking - supporting each other right till the end??? Cause someone who has already lost 150lbs and has only 25lbs to go is going to be in a very different head space then those who only have to lose 25lbs.....

Also I'd love tips from those who are nearly at their goal of losing 50+ and if they moved weight groups forums might be harder to find them - just my thoughts anyway.

50-99 lbs to lose from your band date....

      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.
