Friday Morning Weigh In - 2 January 2009



Recommended Posts

Gosh I hope I started this thread right! I am always late weighing in. Anyways I had a much better week, threw out those Christmas goodies and concentrated more on Protein.

I am down 3.4 lbs this week! Good Luck to all and may all our goals be met in 2009.:biggrin:

Last week: 252

This week: 249.4

Loss of 2.6 pounds for a total of 54.6.

I was down to 247.6 on Wednesday for the New Year Challenge, but TOM got me. It's all good though. I'm really hoping to show a 50 pound loss when I see my doctor on Monday (his scales weigh higher than mine at home, of course lol). I'm seriously considering NOT getting a fill. I've only had one, .6 in a 4 cc band, but the weight is still coming off and I'm not really struggling. We'll see what he has to say.

Keep up the marvelous work everyone!

Last week 172

This week 172

I exercised 3 times and walked the mall a couple of times. I know the 0 loss is due to wine and treats. I am happy no gains over the holidays like normal. I hope to be back in the loss column next week! I have a fill on Wednesday so I am sure I will see one.

Shockingly I had a loss!

Last week: 192.2

This week: 191.2

Total Loss: 1lb

Wasn't sure. Wed and Thurs had some challenges. Made some bad choices but overall, did okay. WAY better than what would have happened before surgery! Did feel icky with the stuff I ate. Not used to eating some of this stuff anymore!

Made sure to get all of my Water in yesterday. Will work on that again today. I was getting lazy with that. Was also able to get on the treadmill a couple of times this week and that felt good. Need to remember that feeling to keep me motivated to keep getting on that thing!

Have a great week all!

I was up 2 lbs at the beginning of the week, but I am back down to 225.

I am hoping this next week to break my plateau.

I'm up 2.5lbs over the holidays - no fault but my own! Certainly alot less than pre-band though.

I've thrown out all of the Christmas goodies and am back to work on Monday - less temptations will be a good thing.

Oh i have not weighed in for weeks, i am so scared, i have been eating way too much for way too long. have made rare healthy choices the last couple of months, so i guess i will have no one to blame but myself, dragged my poor sorry arse onto the treadmill yesterday and today, am going to make a concious effort to get on it at least 5 days per week, and will throw all the bad junk out of the house.

I was banded on 12/9 and have been eating tons less of food

really tons less

and I have not lost a thing

I am hungry but am able to ignore it

this is so much better than before I was banded

I am due to have my first fill tomorrow and I am so worried

the doc's wife can be mean about weight and she has never had a band and she will never need one

I am also on dialysis so I do not know it this makes a difference in rate of loss

I am not allowed to drink more than 50 ounces a day

I know drinking lots of Water helps

please help thanks

I've slacked off posting on these weigh-ins because I quit losing. Time to start over! I'm at 268 today, and I've signed on to the V-day challenge with my goal of losing 10 by then.

Glad to see you back on-line. I was wondering how you were doing. Have you heard from Jason R.? I too am stuck in plateau and have tried to only weigh once a week as daily fluctuations cause me mental grief. Keep up the good work.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
