I'm with you, I'm just not one for large crowds. The DH my daughter and my brother inlaw spent the day on the boat fishing and tubing which can be quite a workout depending on whose driving the boat. came back home grilled out and took a swim, We had a really nice day. A little too much sun but nothing I can't deal with. We live in a small town so even though we are out in the country we could still see the fireworks from the house well, kinda through the trees and in the distance but I still enjoyed them.

It's really hard to beleave that we are all coming up on our 2yr banderversary.

My bandiversary is the 16th. I can't believe I have an appt with Dr. Davis on that day. It is also my DH's 1st Anniversary of his bypass. There are days I still wish the band was a magic pill and I didn't have to make it a lifestyle. Reality Bites sometimes. I have a fat gene and that is the reality. I think I also have the addiction gene too. I just love, love, love sweets. Wish I could eat just one and stop.......I can't. So I can't eat them.

I had technical difficulties yesterday. I am back up and running for now. Yep, I gained 2lbs. I ate too much during the 4th. I had stopped journaling since I started back on food. I am back at it now.

Wow, it is the weekend again.....and rain. Yesterday another tropical system moved in. Hopefully, it has moved on.

Okay, butterflies, we want to hear from you. How's it going?

sorry about the 2lbs, It just kills me how some people can eat good most of the time and splurge now and again with no problem and then their's us, each and every little splurge shows up.:)

Congratulations on the bandiversary weight loss blaze and 2good!

Well, ladies, with my bandiversary approaching, I have to admit that I suck at this right now. I have only lost 14 lbs this past year. I am glad that I haven't gained, but come on, really? It is my own fault. I need to call and get a "teeny, tiny" fill and then exercise. If I did this, I am certain that I could lose again. UGH, I guess I will call Monday. Good luck ladies!

      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.
