"Green" Day Challenge



Recommended Posts

I am down 3 pounds this morning. I got a fill yesterday and then a little unfil yesterday afternoon because I was too tight. I still think I may be too tight. I couldn't lie flat last night. Had to sleep propped on pillows. I am a little nauseated this morning. If nothing changes I will probably go in for more unfill on Monday.

The good news is 3 POUNDS DOWN!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on your weight loss Renewed! That's great! I'll update your stats, make sure it's listed correctly and if it's not, let me know. I hope you're okay over the weekend. Are you able to drink comfortably?

I was afraid my dinner last night may have messed up all my hard work this past week, but I was down another pound this morning.........I really think this last fill has helped me a lot!

So excited!!! I am down to 186 from 189.5 this morning. I have conquered my 3lb loss for this week and its only been a few days. I do have to say I have been very restricted since I did a spin class yesterday morning. Nothing but liquids seems to go down. I was grumpy about that, but not anymore. I am going to keep this up!!!!!!:lol:

That's great Renewed! I'll update your stats. Congratulations on being so close to onderland, I'm excited for you. How are you doing since your fill? You are obviously doing good on the weight loss, but are you still too tight?

I am still tight, but I can sleep lying flat, and I can drink liquids without problems unless they are really cold then they come back up. I ate about 1/2 cup oatmeal this morning without any problem. I just have to eat slowly and carefully. I think I am happy with this fill. Maybe a little tight, but I expect it will loosen some and I don't feel sick. I plan to stay here for awhile.

Very good, Georgia!!!! It's so nice to see results and half way there is a big deal. I haven't had a fill since a week after Thanksgiving and I go from feeling restriction to not restricted. What is it that causes us to feel restriction if we haven't had a fill recently? I am happy to feel this unexpected restriction, but a little worried it could spell trouble. FYI, it is the week before my period. Do any of you get this way?

Thanks darr!

I've heard many bandsters say that they feel more restriction during their TOM. It's hasn't effected me that way yet, but it does for many. That could definitely be why you feel more restricted.

Also, I think the band just has a mind of it's own sometimes, lol! Occasionally I'll have more restriction for a couple of days and then it's back to the way it was.

please update my stats....i'm now down to 215.0, so a total of 3.5 lbs down for this specific challenge. i had a week +/- of plateau but it looks like things are FINALLY starting to pick up some. YAY!

i'm still doing my elliptical and oh!!! i boiled cabbage w/dinner tonight (GOING GREEN), and that was all I had...it went down VERY easy and so i just skipped everything else and stuck w/the cabbage only. i notice that i can eat mostly 1/4 - 1/2 cup of most things, but w/the cabbage being so soft, i ate about a cup and it was GOOOOD! first time i've ever cooked it...so this GREEN CHALLENGE is also helping me to learn how to cook new things that before I would only get at my parents or at a restuarant....I'm a happy girl!

ok, so i'm down 3.5 lbs total....

xoxo, Christie

ps - hope everyone else is doing great! AND, what day exactly is St. Pattys Day?? I gotta figure out if i'm on schedule or begin or ahead of this Challenge! lol. Thanks!

Congrats on the weight loss Hazeleye! I updated your stats. I believe St. Patty's Day is March 17th. We all still have plenty of time to meet our goals.

GO GREEN!

      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.
