Its been a while since I last checked in so figured I would give a quick update. Still hovering just a couple of pounds above goal. Stepped on the scale this morning, which I have not done in about a month. I think I was a little surprised at that. Reason is that I am finding that I fit into less and less of my clothing (even my "skinny" clothes that have been hanging around for years unused in my closet). Definitely shaping up and right now, could care less if I lost another pound. BP is good, off the rack clothing is nice and the compliments don't suck for the ego !! Still love the band - I have not been adjusted for 9 months now (I think I have around 6cc's in a 10cc band). I really don't think about eating, with the exception of generally focusing on Protein. Last night my girls wanted pizza. We went to the local pizza place, I ordered a slice with pepperoni and mushroom and proceeded to eat about 3/4 of it and I was done. That's what I really love about the band.

Anyway, hope all are doing well!

Hi guys this was a really big week for me Sunday I got on the scales dropped another 3 pound. That put me at GOAL, I am now just OVERWEIGHT. After going 5 or 6 weeks with little or no weight loss in these past two weeks I dropped 6 pounds, during this period I stopped keeping a food log and the band does work it makes you stop eating but then I started the log again this week and found their are days I only would get 50 grams of Protein and other days 100 grams so for me think I will continue the logs. Not sure what I will do from here except to just keep eating the same for awhile.:wink:

      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.
