Lost: 4.4kgs (about 9.86lbs) since the last weigh in 2 weeks ago....which included some in the preop.

Exercise: Walking every day for all up about 30 minutes or so

(Can't wait to get these staples out!!)

In the past few days though I have come to a screeching halt and now I'm on mushies, it will be interesting to see what happens...

I'm down 9.8#, 1.69 BMI on the week, for a total loss of 15#, 1.81 BMI.

Getting back on aerobic machines this week, but also going on purees, so I expect things to slow down quite a bit. We'll see...

Great job for everyone so far! I don't think we've seen anyone who hasn't had some kind of progress this month, NSV or weight loss, so we can all Celebrate like crazy! :tt2:

*sigh*

Weight Loss: None. But no gain!

Exercise: 2-30 minutes brisk walks everyday.

I changed my walking from "lets just make it down the block and get this gas moving" to a brisk "sweating and heart pumping" walk this week. I'll be so glad when I can finally go back to the gym like I was before surgery.

Great job everyone!

I lost 1 lb. this week. Things are definitely slowing down and my hunger is returning. Its tough to stay below 1000 cals...other than yesterday (1097 cals) I'm managing. I don't like having my old friend hunger hanging around as much.

NSV - I've worn 2 suits to work this week that haven't fit me since 2004!!!! :tongue2:

Down 2 lbs for this week...I'm in the 200's!!!

Exercise...I've switched from neighborhood walking to the treadmill at work. I like it better as there are no potholes.

Also, went for my annual gyn exam on Wednesday & my doc was pleasantly surprised that I was down 46 lbs from my annual in Sept of 2007. He shared that of his few patients that have had the lapband all appear to be doing real well with it.

WTG everyone...the August bandsters are putting up some great numbers this week. Keep up the good work everyone.

Last Friday - 279.8

Today - 278.6 1.2 lbs lost!:tongue2:

I really didn't expect to lose anything this week (my first full week on soft foods), but I did *finally* start walking on the treadmill. I'm going for 2 15 minute walks a day just to get started, but will quickly move to doing the whole 30 minutes at once. I get in a little over a mile in that time.

I go for my first fill Monday! Yippee!

Keep up the great work everyone!

It's been a trying week, but I ended up losing 3 lbs.

8.29: 205

9.5: 202

Met a friend for lunch and had maybe half a glass of wine - that slowed things down for most of the week. And lots of back pain after a hike, so that meant aleve and oxycodone ... which slowed things down as well.

But all's well that ends well!

Great job, everyone, and let's keep up the good work. :tongue2:

      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.
