Recommended Posts

It's amazing how differently we all loose. I'm one of the slower ones but I know I am gaining Mucle. And can see a major change in my body. I am lifting weights 3 times a week for 1.5 hours. Also cardio a few times a week so I am thrilled with my progress. Was down 3lbs this AM! Keep up the great work everyone!!!

good for you thininside- I am losing slowly as well on average about 5 pounds per month so far - and you know what I'm good with it, I was banded on 5/19/08 and have lost about 25 pounds- I haven't had a fill yet either- no complaints on my end better slow and steady than not at all.. Keep lifting those weights!

I slowed down last wk...with my exercise and Protein so naturally, my appetitie picked up. I didn't lose week before last and only 1lb this wk. No biggy, esp after a lady in my support grp ;ast night was devestated because she hadn't lost in past "12 days"...OMGolly, I would freak if I weighed every day for 12 days anyways! But I understand that works for her. I'm back on tracj this week doing my 30mins walking and 15mins strength training, 5days/wk.

I go for my 2nd fill Tuesday. Still 2cc in a 10cc holding at 1/2 to 3/4 cup per meal.

Congratulations to everyone on their losses! I'm down 40 lbs since beginning the preop diet the last week in April. That puts me (almost) at the halfway mark. I have had four fills, and the most recent this week definitely put me at my sweet spot. Blood pressure and sugars are down, and I feel great. I have to say that being banded was the best health decision I have ever made.

Down another .6 lbs!! Not much of a loss but I will take it!! As long as I don't see the scale going back up I'm good with it. I keep to the plan and know that my body is adjusting. Doing more exercise so that may be muscle being built up. Not going to worry!! I love Looosssiiieee!!! (named my band) KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK EVERYONE!!!

I'm plugging along and still trying to figure out what to eat and how much....it's a learning process, but well, well worth it....

Way to go May Bandsters!!

      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.
