Last week: 195.5

This week: 196.3

Gained: .8

Is anyone else having issues with bloating since surgery? I've ALWAYS had issues. If I don't drink enough, I bloat. TOM, I bloat, etc. Seems just about everything makes me bloat but since surgery, it seems worse. I'm on a diuretic for BP and am STILL having problems with bloat. The other day I bought some caffeine free Water pills to see if that helps but I keep forgetting to take them!

I go on Tuesday for my 2nd fill. I have been slowing down my eating but it's still a little too fast. I have to watch the clock while eating. I'm hungry faster but am not eating til it's time to eat so I'm hoping this next fill will help.

Bad week. I had a bunch of stress and guess what I turned toward to get me through - food! Ugh. Oh well, I did not gain, just stayed the same. I need to make better choices when I am feeling stressed!

My exercise is going well, I could kick it up a bit - that is my focus this week!

Hi there lovely August All-stars! From the 1st of Oct to the 1st of Nov, I've lost 2kg (about 6.6lbs). I only record my weight monthly.

Quite happy with that loss as this month as I've not exercised enough due to work commitments, and even spent two weeks not exercising at all because I had the flu.

I'm due for another fill tomorrow too. :thumbup:

Yay Lellow!!

Plus you are also getting lower in your BMI and I think once you hit about where we are now the weight does come off a bit slower....that is what I keep telling myself anyway:lol:

I like that theory, Ro! Lol!

I agree though that whenever I see that I've 'only' lost 14+kgs (31+ lbs), I remember that I only had 30+ kgs to lose all up, which means I'm almost half way there already. Got to be happy with that when you're only 3 months out from surgery.

My short term goal is to get to under 80kgs (176lbs) by Christmas. I'm 3.5kgs (7.7lbs) out from that still, but I reckon I should be able to get there no problems if I keep losing at this rate. So I can't slow down too much!

      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.
