Labor Day Challenge for Bunny Bandsters



Recommended Posts

geez, this was depressing looking at your goal numbers. I am only averaging one lb. a week. what must I be doing wrong?

You are doing nothing wrong!!!!! Our expected loss is .5 to 1 pound a week more than that is gravy...mmmm gravy with biscuts...ooops sorry "SQUIRREL!". Seriously though if not all most of us have been able to lose several pounds quickly but we didn't stick with it.

I have to keep reminding my self that I'm the tortise(sp) in this race. Losing several pounds between weigh ins is great but the band will help me stick to a program for longer than a few weeks or months but longterm.

Follow the rules as best as you can try to get exercise and when you look back in a year you can say I lost.

Samanthazzz- You're doing great! I've been averaging a tiny bit over a pound for the last 8 weeks and I'm happy with that!

Hi JayTee,

Thanks for reminding me it is not a race. I have been following the program on point and I exercise at least 5 days a week now. I'm going to the DR Tuesday and I hope he will give me my second fill. I was supposed to have it 20 days ago , but he said I didn't need it. I think I need the nudge now. I choose the term nudge (but feel free to substitute kick in the azz) lol

Good luck in your journey!

Only .5 this week! I've taken my eye off the ball starting drinking those damn Chai Latte's from starbucks again what a waste of calories but boy are they good. I'm feeling restriction in my chest not necessarily in my stomach. It actually feels like its hard to go down but I'm still hungry, anyone else having that?

I love those too, I get a shot of espresso in it when I get one. I've ordered the Skinny Latte the last couple times. This was arough weekend I hope it doesn't reflect in the scale.

Well, I've lost a whoping 2 pounds since July 4th. I got a fill today, so hopefully I'll start losing again. I don't think I'm going to make my original goal, but as long as I'm losing....it's all good. :wink2:

      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.
