Two goals hit on my 6 month bandiversary



Recommended Posts

I did not realize that tomorrow is my 6 month bandiversary. Wednesday is weigh day for me (still a day I dread a bit - my relationship with the scale is still not too great) and this morning I hit two goals in one day.

I am now in ONEDERLAND and past the halfway mark! I think I would have shed a tear if I had not overslept by 45 minutes.

I am not sure which one I am most happy about.

Plus - we are actually getting rain in North Carolina (some places way too much, but not here)!!!!!

Thats great I would love to be under 200 by christmas I have 15#'s to go. Maybe I'll reach that goal I was banded 8-11-08 I love the band so far. Also one question how do yall make yalls posts so unique with all the little cartoon animation? How much weight loss do you normally loose in a month or is it just based on the individual and their fill?

Barbara;

I have no doubt that you will reach that Christmas goal.

I do not know how to make the cartoons in your signature line. I can only add the smiley guys. Tickers are not as hard as they look. There are several great threads on the board on how to accomplish this.

I think everyone loses differently. I was losing about 2 pounds a week, but the last two I have lost 3. I have been concentrating extra hard on enough Protein. I was not eating any Snacks, but have added a snack of high protein - usually pudding made with sugar-free, fat free Jello and Unjury Protein Powder.< /p>

      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.
