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 !!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
