MAY 2009 Banders!

[TeganRheana 1]

I've lost the thread we had so I wanted to start another one. Just wanted to be able to check in and see how everyone is going with their weight loss so far. I had my first fill about a month ago now to 4cc but haven't lost any weight since! :wink2: I'm getting a little discouraged.

...I haven't been doing too well with eating the "correct" healthy foods so I'm starting fresh today. I've had some yoghurt for Breakfast and for lunch I intend on having some cruskits with a slice of cheese and Tomato on top which I love. My hardest time is after dinner, I've always been an "after 7pm snacker" so that is tough. I bought some milo today so I'm going to try having a hot cup of that tonight which will hopefully hold the hunger off.

How is everyone else doing? Do you have any food issues with what you can/can't eat? How has your weight loss been going?

Hi. I'm glad I am not alone. I lost 11 pounds 2 weeks post op and have not lost anymore. I've had 2 fills. I have 3.5ccs in my band. Honestly, I'm ok with the slow loss. I am a teacher and I do not want most people to know I had WLS. If I go back to work with obvious weight loss, everyone will suspect that I had surgery. I have a long term goal set. I would like at least 20lbs lost by Thanksgiving. That is a reachable goal. Once I return to work it will be easier to stick to my eating plan. As of now I can eat anything. Nothing gets stuck.
