Hi Everyone

Not checked in for awhile. Been super busy, hopefully that will change soon.

But I´ve been a good girl doing my exercises, and got another fill the other day taking me to 8.4 in a 14cc band. Lost 5 pounds since then!

This is a new experience, in that I´m super tight, and REALLY have to watch what I´m doing. In the morning I do my Protein Shake, for lunch cottage cheese, and then by evening I can eat something with a bit more substance.

Hoping this will be a good spot for me to loose. I´m ALMOST half way to what I want to lose!

I am so thankful because this AM I weighed myself and I have lost 101lbs since getting my band on 5/28/2008. I started this process as super obese (not sure what was so super about it) so my goal is not right around the corner but I have never felt this confident about my ability to reach and maintain a normal weight. One thing I have learned is how the scale responds when I am eating correctly. I do not lose weight "evenly". I can go for weeks without losing and then suddenly will drop pounds quickly. I know that when this happened in the past those weeks of stalling were excuses to eat more and just the start of regaining. The best tool for me has been an on-line diary (I use the www.dailyplate.com) so I could look back and see how the weight loss stalls were followed by rapid drops. Also it keeps me honest. Happy New Year to all of us living our new lives.

WooHoo! Congrats Christine. Unless I am missing someone, you might be the first one to 100 lbs lost for the May's. Congrats! I hope to follow you real soon. I am at 90 (was 91 but gained some over Christmas). My surgery was originally May 29th but got delayed til June 5th. I seem to lose the same way. Nothing for weeks and then it's rapid losses for a few days, then I seem to rest again. Think my body wants to hang on to the fat as long as it can and then just releases some. :wink2:

Congratulations Kikival!! What an accomplishment. I think that the closer we get to our goal weight, the more of a challenge it will be.

I finally started to take exercising seriously and am hoping that I will see the difference in weight loss!!

Happy New Year!!!

100lbs!! That is great Christine! I just checked out the website you recommended and I think will start trying to use that daily. It will keep me from kidding myself about how much a cookie is!

Long2B... wow 92.5lbs! You should be very proud!! You let us know as soon as you get to 100!

I have lost 75!! I am very happy. I did gain a couple of pounds in the last 2 weeks, however, that is nothing compared to weight gains in the Christmas's past!!

Happy New Year Y'all!:wink_smile:

      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.
