Mayo Banditos / Friday Weigh In !!!!



Recommended Posts

well for the 3rd week in a row im battling the same 2 pounds up and down. ever since my last fill I have absolutly no restriction. I feel like I am hungry all the time. I am working out every other day running on the treadmill..then on sat I go with a friend and hike some of the hardest mountains in phoenix. I thought with doing all this I would be down a few pounds, but no such luck. Thankfully tuesday I go in for my 3rd fill. I really hope that helps.

Ann-I hear you stomach here in phoenix and mine is answering back...listen and you can hear it say....feed me!!!! But I am trying to hold strong!

congrats to all this week weather you lost, maintained, or gained a little. We are all working toward the same goal on this journey. Keep strong and heres to a great next week loss!!!!

John, you are doing great! I think I thought you were a golfer because of your ticker. lol You certainly get a lot of exercise in. That's fantastic. How much do you walk each day? I just bought a membership to the rec center, so I'm starting up my Water walking/jogging again.

BTW, that's cool that you have a 55 Chevy. Would love to see a picture of it sometime!! :thumbup:

Hi Ann -

At work, I try and walk 20 minutes during lunch. 3-4x at night I go to the gym. 10 min warm up on the eliptical machine ( heart rate 100), 30 min weights, 20 minutes on the treadmill ( H/R 130).

I'll email you a link to view the oics of the 55 Chevy.:blink:

This is my third week without weight loss. Bummer.

I talked with the Medical Director where I work yesterday (who is also banded). She said it is just the metabolism catching up, or adjusting. Maybe so, but it is still frustrating.

Hope next week is great for everyone!

Congratulations, everyone! :w00t: Another great week for the mayo Banditos!

Rebecca, don't worry, the numbers will drop again. I bet if you took your measurements now you would notice a difference in those numbers! :)

John, good job at maintaining! Good luck with your port replacement on Monday. We'll be thinking of you. Hope your recovery is easy and swift. Please come on here as soon as you can and let us know that you're all right. :smile:

Way to go, Linda! Welcome to Onederland! Isn't it onederful??? :closedeyes: Love the picture.

Like the new picture, Sassysara. Very cute. :smile: Here's to any pound down!!! :lol:

I lost 3.5 lbs this week, which is a net loss of 0.5 lbs because I had gained 3 lbs. last week. I was so glad to see those leave! They left with their friends (not mine) TOM and Flo. :) lol

Have a great weekend, everyone!!! :smile:

Congrats Linda. What a great feeling!

I came down 1.5 pounds this week, but it was a work in progress over the last few weeks. Down to 176 now. I can't wait for my 2nd fill on Monday. Hopefully that will get me going faster again. GB

      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.
