welcome back allie glad to have you back.:) and rose i hope you feel better. and laurel you will start to feel healthier every day.

well here is my update i went and weighed in and i have gained 3lbs. my dr said im retaining alot of Water so he put me back on water pills. so i have lost the 3lbs. and i got back on birth control but, dont think im going to stay on it dont want to gain any weight. funny thing is i wasn't even mad about the weight. i still have about 6.5wks before i can get one. but, i think im gonna be fine. :) so how is everone else eating and has anyone gained any weight.

Hey ladies,

It's been awhile since I've been on here. I went to Houston for the holidays and had a great time. I've been eating some solid foods (I'm still favoring mushy foods though) and I've found that some of the easier foods to eat are higher in calories and fat so I'm working on making better food choices. I didn't lose any weight over the holidays but my doctor gave me the okay to start working out yesterday (no weight lifting though) so I'm hoping that I will start losing again real soon. Hope you all have been doing well and happy new year to you all.

Welcome back and hope you had a great holiday. Glad to hear that everyone is doing well and we all got through the holiday season. Well I woke up this morning at I have a bad sore throat. I hate getting sick....so I am taking Vitamin C and going to dring alot of liquids and rest today. It figures I get sick when my husband finally gets a few days off and we were going to adventure out and do some things together. Looks he will be playing golf solo today. Have a great day ladies.
Welcome back allie, I hope you feel better Rose, China, I am just looking forward to feeling healther. I had another busy day of running around. Tomorrow should be much quieter thank goodness. I didn't get to get any excercise today but I was exhausted from yesterday. I will make sure I get in some tomorrow. I have 3 weeks to my first fill. Looking forward to that part of this adventure. Have a great day everyone. Laurel

Goodmorning to all. I have been getting some excercise everyday. This morning I put in 70 mins on the wii fit. Tomorrow I need to make sure I get to Water arobics. I am paying for it. I love the wii fit as some of the excercises are yoga and stretching. Along with arobics and balance excercises. I know it has been harder and harder this week to get up. I do have alot more energy now though. I too am getting caught up in weighing myself everyday. But I am not letting me get discouraged as I know I am not over eating and I am excercise each day. Unfortunately my doctor's office is over 30 mins away. I won't be back ther until 1/27. Hope everyone has a great day. Laurel

China, I am really enjoying the wii fit. I don't play any of the video games. But I love the excercise program. I will go to the gym tomorrow to do the Water arobics. I want to wait until 6 weeks to start any type of lifting. I do need to get the gym to set up some type of good program to follow for me. I want to keep everything fun so I will keep doing it. Plus changing up the excersizing is good for the body. Good luck with the moving and Rose, I hope you are feeling better. Laurel

hey everyone how's it going? i was checking the fit wii and it has a weight thing so im gonna wait till i loose some more weight and get it. my son has the wii. i went to the gym today and walked on the treadmill for an hr of course i had to stop and rest but before i did i walked 30mins then started back up for another 30mins:thumbup: then did the eliptical for 2mins and the thigh machine 4sets of 15. so im gettin better.

not the eating is getting much to easy now. im finding in the evening that im hungry like after 6pm. so i have decided to make a menu for the wk of what i will be eating to help me get through. think if this doesn't work i will be calling the dr for a fill. dont get me wrong i can diet on my own but, i dont want to over eat as that is what got me in this situation in the first place. or maybe im just waiting to long to eat or some thing. gotta work on this. i think i might go back on south beach and see what happens. is anyone else dieting or no just doing what ever.

rose how are you feeling i didn't see you post today are you ok.

welcome mommysgirls glad to have you. i hope we see more of you around its a fun group and we do alot of talking:tt2: now as for the weight loss give it time it will happen. maybe you might have to add in more calories. do you excerise. maybe try posting what you are eating through the day maybe that is the reason. also have you started regular food yet.

I have my wii and wii fit. I was just letting anyone else know that circuit city will have them tomorrow. But you will probably have to be there before it even opens. All scales are not the same. I just bought a new one as my old one always weighed me about 5 lbs lighter. I did lose 2 lbs this week. I plan on only posting my official weight loss when I go to the doctor's as I started using their scale. I am trying to get atleast 1 hr a day on excercise as when I work. I sit too much. I am noticing a big difference on how I feel and also how my pants fit. I know I did the right thing. Also my new sneakers came in yesterday. They fit very nice. So now I have 2 pairs to wear. One to work and one for weekend. I have to get better on keeping track of my calories, Protein and Water. Have a great day. Laurel

Hey Ladies,

I'm starting to get really anxious about my first fill, I'm hungry now and I feel like I can eat anything. I've gained 3 pounds and I really want to feel restricted again. I started working out but I've found that when I do workout I wake up the next morning with a pain in my abdomen. I'm going to start walking tomorrow and see if that helps me drop the weight I put back on and I'm going to be more careful about what I put in my mouth. I still have 3 weeks till my first fill so I hope to have the 3 pounds gone and then some by that time. Wish me luck.

Welcome Mommysgirls, glad you decided to post, it's really nice having people here that understand what you're going through. Hope to see you around here more often.

      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.
