I survived my nephew's b-day party so far today, and we're gearing up right now for a superbowl party. Everything is already done, so it will just be a matter of relaxing and watching the game... DH has done a LOT to help me, so hugs to him. :)

Anybody here? I just spent the hour catchingup.

Sounds like you guys are still fabulous. I'm doing well. Down 46 on good days. scale hasn't moved since December and gained 1,5 with superbowl chowdown.

I have 3.6 in 4cc band still no issues with PB or vomit. I'm going on a cruise in July so need to work extra hard to loose 30lbs by then. I need all your encouragement.

I'm here, too!

Look at it this way, Skinny, you can SO do this, if you break it down, you'll need to lose 1.5 lbs a week, and you'll be on target!

I'm almost back from the dead now. I've got a nasty cough and a terrible headache, but I think I might live.

Hang in there travelgirl. It took me almost a year to get motivated.

I joined 24 hour fitness this week and i'm so sore. I want to cry. I can barely lift my arms to put a jacket on.

Happy Valentines Day girls !:mellow: I had my 7th fill yesterday. It was ok except my dr. had to leave for an emergency and I saw a different doc. He was a little rougher. He got me on the first poke , but caused quite a bit of bleeding. Had to use a big gauze pad to get it to stop. So my belly is a little sore today. All of us in for fills had to see a nutritionist together in a class. What a waste of time - "eat your protien and take you vitamins". I've pretty much figured that one out in the past year !:cursing: At least I had time for a little shopping afterwards. Bought my family "Krispy Kreme" do-nuts. They looked great, but I knew better. lol !

Have a great V-Day with your loved ones !:wub:

Talk to you soon !

Whew, that was rough. I've had the flu now for 2 weeks. What I thought was a cold got better for a few days, then hit me last week with a VENGEANCE. What a nasty little bug that is. I'm still coughing and sniffling, but I'm upright (but still exhausted) and back at work because I just could not miss any more days before being put on FMLA, which I'd rather avoid if at all possible. I just hate doing the paperwork for it.

I hear that the entire country is being ravaged by this one, seemingly all at the same time, which is unusual. The CDC says it usually spreads east to west over the course of several weeks, but this season it's just been BAM! everywhere...all at once.

Yeah I am trying lol.

I need spring to hit here so I can get outside and ride. I am so stir crazy from being inside and have all but given up working out indoors. Since I don't plan on getting my plastics done until Octoberish I have a bit of time to lose the rest.

And you are pretty close yourself Miss Skinnyjeans!

      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.
