Congrats Chine. Nice weight loss. I think I am down about 8 lbs since surgery. My scale is off from the doctors. I go back to the doctors on 1/27 for a fill. I guess I have to wait until then for my official weight loss. I am down atleast 30 lbs since sept. So I am happy. I guess I am off tonight now due to the weather. Happy and Healthy New Year.

I would be more than happy to join in. My weight seems to be coming off slowly, but atleast it is coming off. This is my first new year's eve off in 6 years. I am going to treat myself some, but will not go overboard. I know I will get right back on track and monday I go back to work. I plan to get into a routine as much as I can. My work schedule is always subject to change so I need to be prepared. I have about 100 lbs to lose if not more. I plan to watch what I eat, excercise and drink plenty of Water. If I am stuck at work, I plan to have a set of gym clothes in my car. :laugh:

that is a great plan, i have really been thinking about how i can help me through the year. i think i can help myself better by watching what i eat. keeping a food journal and a daily diary of my thoughts. and of course getting into the gym and really do my thing. i know that this road is gonna be a hell of a ride but, im ready. i have to learn to stop and smell the roses some times. and always remember that i didn't gain all this weight and it wont come off in a day or to.

what is everyone else going to try to get them to there goal.:Yawn:

I hope you had a good new year's eve. I ended up falling asleep and woke up just after the ringing in. I am an early riser due to my job. So it is hard to stay up late. I did eat a little more than I should have and I did pay for it. A lesson well learned never again. It is not worth it at all. Now to set up mini goals and staying on track. Happy New Year.

China great job in the weight loss. I seem to be at a stand still at the moment but I am being patient. I have not been able to exercise like I would like to as I have been having terrible back pain. At the moment I am laying on an ice pack and trying to get the back pain under control. I hope that everyone has a great New Year.

i had an ok new years eve it was a little over whelming for me as my kids where not here with me so i was kind of sad. everyone wanted to go out but, me so i stayed home and watched movies.

hi rose how are you doing i have been wondering about you. i started back at the gym on monday and i must say i was thinking i would be able to workout like i was b4 the surgery well ladies let me tell you not. i was only able to do 15mins real slow then rest then 10mins and it really made me angry as i really wanted to let go an do my thang. i did go back on tuesday and was only able to walk on the treadmill for 10mins then rest then 10mins again then go home or watch everyone else. i think i was alittle mislead as i read on here where alot of people would say how they where back at work in 3 days or had no pain i was expecting that for me really. dont get me wrong i came home sleeping on my stomach and walking alot but, i never thought i would be unable to workout. but im gone hang in there as im not a quiter. and i to have to learn to be patient. it will come to all of us in due time.

i eat 4ozs of yams and 3ozs of oxtails w lima Beans i was so happy to eat that in a whole meal setting. that was for lunch and i had clite for Breakfast and nothing there after. gonna try and eat something for dinner maybe 3ozs of Beans and meat mixed together. ya dont know how happy this made me becuse my dr wants to take my cc's out so i can eat but, i said lets wait. so i know see its slowly changing so maybe he wont not.

in any case im happy i did it. rose be patient it will come off. maybe you could try adding in more food in every other day. i hear some people say that if they add more food it works as it keeps the body guessing. but im sure once you start excerising it will come off. have you talk to your dr about the back pain.[

also laurel what happen when you eat to much. and how did you know that you eat to much.

Welcome back Rose. Hope the back gets better. China, I have nothing in my band right now. But I had the worst heartburn which I never get. I felt pessure right under my chest dead center. I don't get my first fill until 1/27. I plan on doing Water arobics tomorrow, it is a 90 min class. I have a bad knee and I can do such more in the pool. I also have a bone spur and heel faticus so I have to be careful with walking. I am trying to find a good pair of sneakers that will allow me to do more walking. Laurel:lol::confused:

i hear that new balance sneakers are the best once to get. im going to go get me a new pair in the morning. i have a crocked left foot got it when i had my first baby didn't dialate completly.

i was filled with 1.5cc in mines. do you have the relize band or the agp i think its called. i wonder why my dr set my appointment for 2-24-09 yes a long time away. he said i wont need one as he set me tight for this reason. we can any of you tell me are you able to drink or eat what ever. i keep hearing that. yet i cant.

question of the week what do you like most about your band.

me the fact that i now have my eating under control and can lose weight and is never coming back. im still learning but, its cool for now.

I have a web site for the new balance and it seems it will cost about 100. I need to just spend the money. Just trying to get my credit cards down. I am not sure what type of band I have. I think mine is 8cc. I didn't get to talk to my surgeon on my 1 week check up as she had surgery. When I go back the end of this month I will ask more questions. Laurel

I went ahead and ordered a pair online. I have to becareful as I have inserts I need to put in them. I made it to my Water arobics today and did the 90 min class. I feel good. Now to get more water in me each day. That seems to be the hardest. I get busy and forget to keep sipping. I haven't dropped any weight in the last week, but I plan to continue what I am doing. Trying to make sure I get in the 1200 calories too. Hope everyone is doing well. Laurel

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
