Hi everyone! How is it going?

I slowed down - Halloween didn't help (ahem!) but I got my 3rd fill last week and now I REALLY feel restricted! Not to the point where I can't eat, but definitely more than I've had for the past few months. It could be that elusive sweet spot.

Anyway, the scale is starting to move for me again - I hit 198 this morning.

I lost 2 lbs. this week. Definitely feel like my weight loss is slowing down, even though I believe I am close to my sweet spot. Isn't that funny? I thought I would lose more once I got the right restriction. Oh, well. Just going with the flow... and happy for every pound lost! :):)

Keep up the great work, mayo Banditos, and don't worry too much about Thanksgiving. It's just another day! Relax and enjoy. :bored:

I have done the up and down a bit due to a leaky port, I had my port replaced and when that was done on 10/30 I was at 268.5, last week I was at 263 and today I was at 260. So I feel like maybe I have the right spot now. Right after the port replacement I was TOO Tight and could not swallow my own spit, they removed it and made me wait a week for swelling to go down, then they overfilled me and I had terrible reflux for 5days, we took out 3/10 cc and no more reflux and I seem to have a good balance between restriction and being able to eat. I sure hope it sticks for a while.

So the day after T-day!!! And I am the first to write! I can't believe I actually went down

11/20 186.6

11/27 185.8

-.8

I'll take it. I have been fighting 186 for most of the month! And now I have broken into 185. I am contemplating getting another fill but I still have restriction if I eat too fast. I know it's the fact that I need to excercise.... cuz I don't AT ALL! I am also noticing that I use this weigh in as a blog/confessional sometimes. So sorry that I am rambling.

Hope all had a great T-day!!! Now I am off to vacation this Monday for a week cruise! I am bringing my walking shoes for that!

      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.
