Friday Weigh-in



Recommended Posts

Julie & Love - you're both doing great. I love this sight and love my band - I'm down 2 pounds myself and I've rounded up to say I've lost 20:redface:.

Love, your body was probably in shock because it wasn't exercising. Sometimes I think we just have to trick them! Whatever works. You are doing so awesome.

Julie - you too. Amazing. You guys rock!

I've posted my anticipated weight loss (at 8 pounds a month) on my Treo phone. Next week, it says that I'm supposed to be below 220. We'll see - can't wait. Go me:smile:

Have a good weekend.

Hello I'm Rae

I had my second band put in 10/20/08. The first one's port got infected and had to come out, and then I had to heal. My first one was put in in July.

I had my first fill 12/16/08 7cc in a 14cc band

no real restriction.

However this Tuesday I got 2.4 cc more for a total of 9.04 and I feel the restriction. It feels different this time. I have lost 3 lbs since Tuesday. I do Wii fit almost everyday for 45 minutes at least and I did get the Wave so I am hoping to start that soon. I didnt really lose in December or January I had no restriction and just ate, I didn't gain weight but wasnt doing anything to try to lose weight.

New beginnings

Hi Rae -

Wow, that must have been so frustrating for you. I'm very impressed by your resiliency.

I love my Wii Fit - especially doing the step aerobics with the regular tv on. What is the Wave? I'm always looking for new things.

it was very frustrating after my first port had to come out but you move on and hope for the best. It was scary because they wound had to be left open to heal :confused: but we are all better now and moving forward.

the Wave is a stepping program but the step is shaped like a 1/2 circle so you can sept on it them turn it over and it rocks back and forth it is neat but higher aerobic work out.

You shouldn't worry - the scale fluctuates. I try not to weigh myself so much although it doesn't always work! You're doing great.

      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.
