I have enjoyed my last 2 days off. Yesterday, I went walking around my neighborhood for about an hour. Today I went to gym for my Water aerobics. The weight is still not coming off but I am sticking to it. I go back to doctor's on tues. I will bring all info to them to see what is up. I am also starting to bruise easily. I hope everyone is doing well too. Laurel

I think I finally got the scale moving in the right direction. Seems I have to have a day of eating some bad things and boom, I drop some. Go figure. I am going to continue to eat right, but on one day of the weekend, treat myself in a small portion of something yummy, lol. Only 6 more days to Vegas. Hope everyone had a great weekend. Laurel

Well, I went and had another 1cc put into my band and I am down 10 lbs since last visit which was 7/30. I worked very had for every one of those 10 lbs. I have another appoint for 9/22. I am finally heading in the right direction again. I am still up around 10 lbs since my slip. I am getting very excited about vacation. The only bad part is I go back to work once I get back. I get spoiled with my time off, lol. Whoever thinks this is easy, is dead wrong. I am going to make it work!! Where is Rose? You stay strong too China. Laurel

Hi everyone. Summer has been fun, but I'm still at a plateau. Went to the beach at the end of July then camping another week in mid August. Have a good tan, but no more weight loss. None gained either. I did have some GREAT news recently. When I had surgery they did the liver biopsy & I was told I had fatty liver/enlarged liver/some damage throughout the liver. Was sent to a specialist last Feb. He said with losing weight it might reverse itself. He scheduled me to come back in 6 months (last week). The results were that my liver enzymes were all normal!!! They had been elevated for probably 5-6 years. The last test just before the lap band surgery they were almost twice what the normal range is. I was told to keep on doing what I am doing & come back in six months. Had they been elevated dr. would have put me on metformin, a diabetes drug that has proven to help w/fatty liver. I am so ecstatic over these results. I am definitely healthier even though I feel I have slowed down considerably. Will keep on with my eating habits and surely will lose a pound or two soon. Hope everyone is doing well

Hello Everyone,

I am sorry I have been gone so long. But things have been very crazy for me. My mother has now been diagnosed with terminal cancer along with my mother in law. I am now taking care of both of them with the help of my dear husband and children. I promised both of them that I would not put them in any kind of hospital and that I would care for them at home. My mother in law is currently going through monthly chemo treatments. My mother on the other hand has decided to no longer have anymore treatments and we are just trying to manage her pain and make her comfortable.

On a brighter note my weight loss is going along well I am losing about 5lbs a month and I will take that anyday. I don't think I need anymore fills as the weight is coming off at a steady rate. I see my doctor on Thursday and I will leave it up to him..but I think I am good.

I am so happy to read that everyone is doing so well and is on track. I am so very proud of all of you. Keep up the good work.

I am attaching a current picture of me any my husband.

MRose, I'm sorry to hear the news about your mother. I can't imagine what you must be going through with the situation. It sounds like you do have a good support system which is so important. Remember to take care of yourself although it will be more difficult than ever. The caregivers get run down so easily. Your pix is great! It looks to me like you don't need to lose any more. I still have a good amount around my middle (stomach) to lose. Have skinny legs & no butt. It's all in the middle....and on my neck :sneaky:

Take care.

Wow Rose, you look Great. I am so sorry to hear about your Mom and Mother-IL. China I hope you have a great time on your trip. I am walking on Saturday for The "Walk from Obesity". I feel like obesity has effected my whole life. I am trying to raise some money for this. If anyone is interested in donating(tax deductable) to this, I will send you the link to my site for donations. I haven't really excercised since I got back from Vegas, I started back to work on tuesday with all half days. Seemed like I didn't get any breaks during the day. I hope everyone is doing well.

      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.
