Congrats to those who lost and to those who haven't I FEEL YOUR Pain! My scales didn't move for 3 weeks!! And I have no restriction and am yet to have a fill!!!

Just keep telling yourselves it's a journey and will have it's ups and downs and until we hit that sweet spot it's going to be tough. Even when we reach that I am sure we'll have weeks where we don't lose as our bodies decide to hold onto everything or for us girls when we have the period bloat/cravings/issues!

Oh wow, that class looks like it would be SO much fun! And I didn't realize the teacher was a guy until he started talking.:confused: That's great!! And congrats on your loss Roheryn.

Last week: 268.6

This week: 265.2:hurray:

Loss: 3.4 pounds!!!

Total: 38.8 pounds!!!

I worked at at Curves every day this week, plus worked in the yard for a couple of hours several days. For some reason I decided to jump on the scale Wednesday, only to be up 4 pounds from last week.:blink: But when I weighed on Thursday (after giving in to an oatmeal raisin cookie on Wednesday after my workout) those 4 were gone, plus an extra 2. I tell you, eating in the middle to upper range of my recommended calories really seems to work for me.

Off to Curves now. :)

FINALLY!!!!! My scales saw movement this week!!

I lost a kilo (2.2 pound) this week YAY!

And the weekend weather is going to be gorgeous!

Going to a Burlesque class tomorrow with a fellow Bandster....should be HILARIOUS! (this is my teacher YouTube - Burlesque Beat TM Dress Up Class Part 2)

OMG!!! I want to take that class!LOL

Well, I had a very bad week with being on my special time. It's like all my will power goes right out the door!:smile2:

I gained two lbs this week and I can't even blame it on not having rescrition, because I do have it morning to night.

Last Week - 243

This Week - 245.....I'm going to cross my fingers that it's just water!

Down 1 pound this week.

I was hoping for more but at least I am losing. It seems really slow right now. I thought I would lose more since I had a fill last week. However, I'm feeling some restriction but not a whole lot. Generally when I fill full I can eat some more if I just wait a few minutes.

I have a goal to lose 12 more pounds by Thanksgiving. I'll make it. There are 7 weeks to go. I just need a few weeks with losing 2 or more pounds. My next fill in on Nov. 6th.

The class was fun! and I did feel the muscles being used I didn't know I had :)

Then came home to babysit a friends kids and mum and dad came over too to help me get some stuff out for the hard rubbish collection this week!

Then for lunch I had a Deli Choice Wholemeal roll from McDonalds.....BIG mistake!! The roll I thought would be ok but I think it was still a bit doughy and it got REALLY stuck I nearly PB'd and I slimed though!!! OMG!! YUCK!!! I felt crap...Luckily it took only 4 mins or so to clear and then I was ok....I avoided the roll and just ate the filling....won't be doing that again I hope!

Hey guys, sounds like some of you have had a great week. Good Job!! I have gained 1 lb this week. I lost almost 7 lbs the week after my fill then it stopped...dead stop. Now I feel like a have very little restricition. The scary part is that I am not suppose to get another fill until Nov. 23rd. I don't think i can make it that long. I am walking at least 3-5 times a week. I feel really good but I am worrid about waiting soooo long for my next fill. Have any of you had a second fill yet? :)

I am down 5 lbs this week, but have to be really careful. I may have too much restriction now. I gotta remember to eat slowly or it is gross and painful. I am going to eat slow and chew well this week.

I never heard of McDonald's offering a Deli Choice Wholemeal roll. I'm going to have to check this out online since it is not available around here. It's interesting to hear what McDonald's sells around the world. When I traveled to Spain both McDonald's and Burger King sold Flan as one of their Desserts.

It is from the Healthier Choice Menu Options here.

They have a few different roll versions with a certain amount of fat that get the Heart Foundation tick of approval...you can also get Cereal in the Breakfast menu and less fattening choices. But that roll was HELL!!

      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.
