WOW! that was fast and is great! Congrats to you! Best of luck to you and keep up the good work. I wasn't banded in March - actuallly Feb but try to stay current with everyone's posts. I've lost about 57 lbs..not enough but still hoping and trying. Hope yours is still working too. Thanks for staying current. Just out of curiosity what is your line of work? Sorry - I guess I haven't read enough of the posts. Congrats though!

I was banded on 3-3-09 and i've lost 64 pounds so far.

I'm getting close to my goal and the weight has definitely slowed down the past 2 weeks.

I need to bump up the exercise, change things up again...make sure i'm getting my Water, and watch the calories/carbs/portions again until i start losing again.

I was banded 3/23 and am currently down around 56 lbs...I have had two fills. I need to bump up the exercise now - which will be easier to do now that it isn't so hot out!

Hi everyone, sounds like everyone is doing really well. I am not sure how I am doing. Confused I guess. Last month when I had a fill then had part of it taken back out because it was to tight. I have maintained my weight for a month, just started again. Finially got back to the gym today after all the crazinest at work the past month. I still have good restriction but I get hungery between meals so I don't know what to do. Then there was a few days when everything I ate seemed to get stuck, and I thought maybe my band slipped. Im not sure If I would really know if my bland had slopped. The good news is I am 9lbs from loosing 100lbs that's an awesome feeling. Only 29 more to go to my doctors goal for me, and 59 to my ultimate goal. Now that I have made it this far life seems a little scary. I am a little worried I am going to fail somewhere down the road. I think I still have a lot of work to do with how I think about food and myself. But right now life is good.

      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.
