Morning Everyone. The scale said 271. That can't be right, I'm sure it's wrong!! How many of us have said that???

Oh well, I had a great loss last week and it's the end result right??? Hope everyone has a good week.

Hi All

Sorry was away on Friday and I am very sorry I haven't done the spreadsheet for a few weeks. I have been in Auz visiting friends.

125.0 for me today after four days on bad food and booze - trying to pretend I didn't have a band as my friend didn't know!!

Feeling okay - quite positive. Good work all of you for coming back and weighing in this week - I know how easy it is to just not hop on those scales!!!

Will do spreadsheet with friday's weights!!

xx

I weighed in today at 206.8 but I know that is because I had a fill yesterday and liquids so next week will probably be a slight gain again.

The good news I think is that I now have 8.2 cc in my 11 cc realize band. I think I am going to have some good restriction with the fill of 1 cc yesterday.

I am so ready for the dieting to be over and the band to begin if you know what I mean.

190 this week, fill #4 is scheduled for a week from today But I am only down so much this week because I just got over a stomach flu! Ughs.

I did learn this week that my band's efficiency in controlling my hunger is directly related to my exercise . . . when I do 10-15 miles a day, I eat 2 cups at a time and end up doing 4 meals because I'm hungry again in 2 hours. When I get a lot less excercise (like only 2-3 miles a day), I'm OK with 1/2 cup at a time and it lasts 4 hours. So I can either stop excercising and follow my program, or I can go get another fill & see if that helps me stay full longer.

I have a feeling that this band is going to keep me on a learning curve the whole way through!!

Happy Friday all!

A tough day for a weigh-in for me. This morning I was 260 again, so no change. I had lost 2.5# between last Fri and Tues. morning. Then Tuesday afternoon I got my period and gained all 2.5 back. I'm not too worried about that though, it's all bloat and Water retention and it should go away when my period's over.

Of course right now I'm no where near 260. In the 7 hours since I first weight myself, I went from 260 to 266.5 and I ahven't eatten a morsel unless you count pills and a sip of OJ to get them sown, as food. What I did have was 2 liters of IV fluids and .5 liters of contrast material for a CT. Man, those fluids weight a ton.

I'm going to post in my blog about my trip to the ER this morning but for now, long story short--I have a honking, massive, painful kidney stone. Ouch :crying:

Hey Guys!!! I made it out of the 190's!!!! I weighed in this morning at 189.5 !!!! That's down 1.5 pds. !! We are ALL doing so good !! I think one of the things that is helping me stay on the right track, is coming back here to track what I'm doing and find out how everyone else is doing !! I have to hold myself accountable to someone and this group is it ! It's important to stay in touch and encourage each other and help those who need it, that's why we are here !! Talk to you guys next week, have a good wkend !!

      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.
