Well, I gained 2 and lost 2 this week so I'm the same. I'm taking 2 hard summer grad classes at once these past 5 weeks and I know why I'm not losing fast enough. I stay up really late to get my schoolwork done as the kids keep me busy during the day. When I start to fall asleep at the computer, I grab a snack for energy. These classes end Wednesday after I have to do 2 presentations, write a research paper, and take 2 finals! Ughh, I'm too old for this crap!! The next 6 weeks I'm only taking 1 class but I have to write a 30 page paper with that one. It will still be easier than the last 6 weeks were. Hopefully the scale will move faster if I get some more sleep!

It sounds awful Linda, what we put ourselves through. I was studying when I was in my 30s and working full time. It is not easy and I was so stressed that my dr tried to convince me to give it up. I was going through some personal stuff at the time as well which didn't help. Good luck.

I haven't weighed myself since this challenge started. I'm a little scared of what the scales will say. I will get weighed on Monday when I see the dr so will update after that. I haven't been too bad and am exercising so I don't think I'll fall over in shock. :thumbup:)

Well, I missed my WW goal by .4 on Thursday. :thumbup: I considered taking off my bra, but decided that I would make my goal this next week. My doctor gave me a letter saying that my WW goal could be 200. I can't wait. I have been going to WW for 5 + years. I have lost 101.2 lbs, so I'm thrilled but I can't wait to get to goal.

Hi all,

It’s been a struggle :rolleyes:; I find that I can eat just about anything I want, no problem unless I scarf it down. I did the pouch test, I lasted until day 4 and I felt some restriction by day 3. But, by the end of day 4 I was starving and eating everything :thumbup:. I am calling my doctor on Monday to make sure the band does not have a leak or did not move. I am hopping I just need a fill and everything is okay. I was able to lose 3lbs by going to the gym 5 day a week for 2 hour each day. However, I can’t keep that up when school reopened.

How is everyone doing?

Marie, you are doing great! 75 pounds is a lot of weight. My doc said that the more you lose, the tighter the band has to be. You probably just need a fill. Keep us posted!

:eek: Hardly. :tongue_smilie: sleep, now that's an alien concept to me. :tt1:

I had put on a little weight just before surgery so I have lost that and another 1.5 lbs, got to be happy with that.

      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.
