Good Morning gals

I'm up a couple too Vicki, but I am sick and thinking that might have something to do with it. I'm not going to worry for a couple days until I get this under control. But, I can sure eat now, which scares me. I don't have a fill appt until December 10th but go to nutrition in 2 weeks.

I just can't worry about it now, I want to eat, and I want rice. I know sick right? It just taste so good when I don't feel good, and I ate some gramcrackers too. Just trying to make sure to drink extra Water or as much as I can.

I will not gain this weight back and I will lose. I have not walked in 2 days because of ds being sick, but no matter how I feel I'll be out today.

Have a great day, hope it is warmer there than it is here!

this is really wierd, where is everyone, it is like aliens came and gobbled you all up..

I lost 7 lbs, yeehaa!

Dr. H and Barb said they didn't want to touch my band cause my weight loss is good. and before they were taking it out and putting it in and I was all over the place, well, u all know that...

Val, I was talking with barb today and we were talking about how woman are tight in the morning and she said that they even have a patient who gets extremely tight when she flies and I know u travel with your job and was wondering if that affects u.

I also seen China today, she looks really good and said she would chime in today, but i guess she is a no show..lol...

where the heck are u guys Rain, biggurl, jenn.....Hello?

you know Val I am really surprized at that cause I have an appt on 12/15, However, she did say she was double booking me and even 2 weeks out she would have to double book me so maybe they are that full...I empathise with you cause I know last time I got unfilled, I gained 20 lbs, i have taken 15 off, but it has been a struggle...

Hello everyone

Saw Dr.H today and got a surgery date of Jan 18 !!

Could have had the week of Christmas but I will be going on vacation 2 weeks later so decided to wait til I come back.

Looking forward to this just still seems so far off.

Glad to see everyone is doing well with the weight loss :thumbup:

Maria, Congrats on your surgery date, and good choice waiting. I waited an extra month myself because we were going to Myrtle Beach for Easter, I had surgery the monday we came back

this is really wierd, where is everyone, it is like aliens came and gobbled you all up..

I lost 7 lbs, yeehaa! :thumbup::thumbup:Congrats!

Val, I was talking with barb today and we were talking about how woman are tight in the morning and she said that they even have a patient who gets extremely tight when she flies and I know u travel with your job and was wondering if that affects u. I get very tight after driving for a few hours, my 4hr drive to Atlantic City almost killed me, first time i thought it was something I ate, but we went back a month later, and omg, was just as bad and didn't eat anything bad that trip

I also seen China today, she looks really good and said she would chime in today, but i guess she is a no show..lol...

where the heck are u guys Rain, biggurl, jenn.....Hello?

I'm here, kids were sick and now that they are better, I relaxed and wham! Sick as a dog
vicki,

i really dont fly that much and when ive been tight before i havent been away. but im kind of irritated that i cant get in till 12/18. ive already started to gain

There are all kinds of crazy things that can irritate you, but great choice going to Dr. I went a year not going, and now that I'm back for regular check ups, I wonder why I didn't go before.

Have a great day all I'm going to get kids off to school and crawl back in bed

Im here but not too thrilled. Im up like 3 lbs and Im not sure why? Ive been trying to eat a lot of Protein blah blah blah. I think its a girl thing and will pass soon. Im thinking about not weighing myself for a week so I dont make myself crazy.

Glad to hear you lost Vicki. Good job. And flying definitely made my band tight. I had to use my barf bag on the plane both ways!

      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.
