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:

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
