Nov. Nymphs "Spring into Weight Loss" Challenge Week #3



Recommended Posts

I didn’t loose any weight this week stayed the same. I need your help.

On Wednesday I went for my third fill but my doctor felt since I had loss 11lbs since my last visit on January 22 that I did not need a fill. I told him am hungry more often, I felt no restriction, unless I eat to fast and something is stuck. He said I am losing very fast (57lbs in 3 months) also if he gave me a fill now, when It’s not necessary, when I need It they will be no room for one. Moreover, he thinks I feel less restriction is because I lost fat around my band :confused2:. I have a 10cc band with 51/2 cc in it now. I was so disappointed,:confused: and of course I reached for all the wrong food, it’s been two days since my appointment I am still not back on track.:hurray: Help please, I try to tell myself I am doing well, his right but I still fell hungry (could be head hunger, not sure), and no restriction. Any advise suggestions.

I swear I'm going the wrong way. I can't figure out what's going on. It just might be "That time of the month." All I can say is that this is not fun.

No change for me this week either. Going for a fill tomorrow (Monday), so I'm hoping that will get it moving again. I also only worked out twice this week instead of my usual 4-5 days. So maybe I need to get moving again too!!

I was stalled on weight loss recently and actually gained a little over pound even though I knew I was not doing anything different, then all of a sudden I lost what I gained and since I posted Thurs have lost another pound. Who knows why these things happen? I had not been stalled previously, just slowly, steadily losing, so the stall came as a surprise and disappointment.

Now I know it just happens and it's good to know that If I stick to the right things, it will go away. I'm thinking it will happen again and now I know better how to handle it. ( ok that should be, maybe I know better how to handle the disappointment)

I had high hopes for my last fill, for a couple days it was perfect. Ate three small meals and felt full in between them. It was heaven! It's already diminishing to varying degrees but now I know I'm close.

I'm thinking I'll only need .5 cc next fill!

Marie: I hate when the Dr only bases a fill on weight loss and not hunger. But your weight loss is remarkable, hang on and continue to do what got you there, I'm sure he'll fill you soon.

Wendy: If you're doing everything the same and know you're not adding extra food, the scale will move. It is so frustrating tho. When it was happening to me, I just couldn't figure it out. We put so much effort in and then the scale does nothing?

The last time I lost thirty pounds it took me 10 months. With the band it took me slightly over three! What a difference.

      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.
