Friday Weigh In Oct. 17, 2008



Recommended Posts

Last week: 265.2

This week: 265.0

2 tenths lost this week. 39 total since surgery. 40 is in my sights!!!!:smile:

Woo hoo for tenths of pounds! lol I wasn't really expecting to lose any, and wouldn't have been surprised by a gain, since it is that TOM and I've had the munchies all week. But I have worked out at Curves every day and my "pre-munchie" calorie count is usually a little low. So the extras may actually have helped. Also, when I give into my munchies it is much different than it used to be. I can be happy with 2 chips or a few pieces of candy corn, or 1/8th of a Reece's Peanut Butter pumpkin that I cut into pieces, put into a ziplock bag, and hid behind the butter in the refrigerator.:frown:

It's been a banner week for me 7.5 lbs lost.

10-10-08: 248

10-17-08: 240.5

This has been my best week so far. Last week, I only lost 1 pound, but I worked out hard all week. I think that I was adding more muscle mass last week which slowed the weight loss. Even though I didn't drop pounds that week, my body fat dropped 1%.

Last week: 196.3

This week: 196

Wkly loss: 3 ounces!

Yep! That's THREE OUNCES! LOL!! Before surgery, that would have ticked me off. I had a rough week though and I know what I did wrong. One was the chips that I posted about earlier in the week. More often that not this week I was rushed for lunches and dinners and was eating WAY too fast and WAY too much and getting over-stuffed. My goal this week is to slow it down. If it looks like I'm going to be rushed, then maybe just eat some Peanut Butter and have a meal later when I can go slower. Another thing that kept happening was I would be STARVING and then being rushed... it was a bad combination. I also feel bloated. Yuck! Oh and NO exercise this week either. So, I know what I need to do differently and I'm going to work on that this week.

I'll take the 3 ounces though! It marks a total of 40lbs since I started this process with the classes in March! I also had to drag out some smaller bras from my drawer (from a 42 to 38!) and I'm wearing smaller shorts that I haven't worn in almost 5 years! Very exciting!

Have a beautiful day everyone!!

I am down 1 pound this week. I'll take it!

I want the scale to move like the rest of you. It's been a slow journey for me. I go get me second fill next Tuesday.

btw, I have a 10cc band that they put in 5.2cc in at surgery, my first fill they put in another 1cc so, I now have 6.2cc in my 10cc band. That seems like alot at the beginning after a first fill? I still have no restriction? I wonder if it depends on the size of your stomach at the time of surgery on how much they put in? any ideas?

I had an appt for a fill on Friday 10/17 but I had lost 12lbs in 4weeks so we decided to hold off. I hope that wasn't a mistake.

I am up 2 pounds this week. I spent the week in Reno for a tax conference and spent a lot of time sitting on my rear and eating catered food. The late nights partying probably didn't help too much either. I am so glad I have a fill tomorrow morning.

Congratulations to everyone for some great losses!

I just realized I posted this week's weight loss on last week's thread.

Anyway, which ever thread you read, I am now down a half a pound this week for a total of 32 pounds.

      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.
