Yay, finally a loss!

Last week 224.8

This week 222.2

A loss of 2.6 pounds, but since I put on .2 last week, it's actually 2.4 towards my goal of a loss of 10.6. 8.2 to go!

I'm not sure what the difference was this week, but I'll bet it was the yard work I did, in addition to my Curves workouts. I was also able to cut my evening nibbling waaaay back. I can do this!!

Hello,

I love seeing your victories because it reminds me that I can do this.

Last week 206

This week 202

Loss 4

Goal 195 (7 to go)

This is a big loss because I got a fill on 9/3/09 and thought I would have to have some taken out because even liquids were going down very slowly. I am better with pure liquids but still very restricted. We decided to leave it and see how it goes and so far I am satisfied.

Keep it up! We can do this

Hi All!

I just joined today. My goal is to loose a total of 50 lbs since I started by Halloween - so that's about 9.5 lbs to go.

Looking forward to following all of your progress and supporting each other.

Welcome to the challenge! I've added you to the spreadsheet.

I haven't weighed yet this week. I ended up going out of town yesterday and had too much high fat/high sodium food. Gonna try a liquid detox tomorrow, then I'll hop on the scale.

Welcome! I would love to hear more about the indigestion issues. Since my last fill, I am having serious issues with GERD. We are trying a different medicine but if something doesn't change soon I am going to need to call my lapband doc. The acid is so bad that it is effecting my voice.

On the good note, I am down 2 lbs to 200 lbs. :( I actually saw onederland this week but of course not on the official weigh-in day. Looking forward to next week when surely onederland will be a permanent fixture in my life.

Keep working and let us know how you are doing!

tutornmom, be careful with that. It could mean that you're too tight. Don't let it go to long.

As for me, I've been out of town the last couple of Fridays (just got home tonight) and haven't weighed in yet. I'll post next Friday. We'll see what happens as I've had a fever & chills flu bug that closed me up tight. I haven't eaten since Wed night's dinner (woke up w/it thurs). :blushing:

scale will probably look really good in the AM once I jump on but by Friday, since I'm feeling better, probably won't look so good! LOL! We'll see!

Have a fantastic week y'all!

Good Friday Morning everyone!

Okay, here are my stats over the last couple of weeks. Being out of town and getting sick messed me up!

9/4 - 175.2

9/11 - 176.7

9/18 - no WI, out of town and sick w/flu but probably would've been up since I ATE really well and loved every minute of it til I got sick! LOL!

9/25 - 174.9

Goal is 170lbs.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Way to go Heartfire! Keep it up!

Hi everyone! I never got back with my results last week, but they were pretty bad. In fact, from the time I went out of town last week up til about Wednesday, I was a chow-hound. I think a lot of it was hormonal and I just didn't feel like fighting it. I also did not step foot into Curves all week - I feel like a slug. At one point I was actually up 4 pounds from my last weigh-in on the 11th, but I got on the scale today and had lost 3 of the 4. So, that puts me at 1 pound up from my last report on 9/11, which I'll take! (especially since it is TOM)

In a nutshell:

Last weigh-in 9/11 220.2

Today 221.2

Gain of 1 pound

Next week will be MUCH better!

      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.
