Feeling so much better!!!!!

I am feeling so much better since my adjustment. I am eating more than I was. that wasn't much. But now I am getting in at least one good meal a day. I have my kids home for Easter break as soon as they go back to school. Next week I will get back on my food journaling and exercise schedule. I feel so much better now that I am not too tight. No headache no chest pain and it does not hurt to breath. I am eating 6 ozs per meal and it feels better than it was before the adjustment. I am 15 pounds away from my goal. Wish me luck reching it.

insurance approved - I'm on my way....

..... and super nervous, excited, hopeful. All the things I'm sure most people go through before they make a major life change. I told my family about my decision to be banded - I was worried I'd have to really defend my position - but I didn't. They asked thoughtful questions, and I answered them the best I could.   I've had my psych visit (super easy), my nutritionist visit (interesting!) and met with my surgeon's resident. After all of that (and xrays for ankle issues, and a sleep study for sleep apnea), my insurance approved my the first time! I was surprised - I really thought they'd either flat out deny it, or it would be a back and forth issue to get there. My BMI has not been over 40 for 2 years - it's flucuated. However - I needn't have worried - it went smoothly. I feel like I've invested alot of money already with all these visits. My out of pocket was estimated at $2400 - that seems quite reasonable to me. Also, I can go on a payment plan (yippee!!).   Sorting out my emotional eating from my eating for hunger has been what I've been concentrating on. I def. eat out of boredom, stress, etc - and I hope, hope, hope I can stop doing this, in order to make the band work.   Right now, I've been eating quite healthfully, as my husband just got diagnosed with diabetes and high cholesterol. It's funny how it's easier to eat healthfully for someone else, but not just for myself. Something to ponder.   I'd love to hear back from others, and would be very interested in meeting people in the NC/Raleigh/Triangle area who are in a similar situation, or have already been banded. :thumbup:   Take care and God Bless! -Tracey

Words cut like a knife

Why is it that people think when you are doing something life altering that they have an automatic right to speak their mind? I just can't imagine opening my big trap and blurting out things that I know would hurt and then be shocked when it does. This morning my Dad said very hurtful things to me. Even when it was pointed out that it was mean and hurtful he argued, to the point of yelling, that it was not hurtful but true. At first I thought people at work were supportative but now those fake supporters have been talking about me behind my back. They say I am just lazy and taking the easy road out. They say I am going to fail again. The surgery won't help. They know people that it didn't work. Well did they know whether or not the person actually followed the many guidelines? I only ask that you don't assume anything about me because you obviously don't know me. I wonder, are you talking about me because you are jealous that I have the guts to say YES I NEED HELP and I am taking this giant leap forward? Don't judge me. I do this for me not you so stop making this about you and your obsessive negativity. :thumbup:

11 Days Post-Op

So...I have been banded for 11 days now. Not so bad. I am having very few urges to cheat, but I am feeling pretty satified most of the time. Drinking protein shakes, as well as using liquid protien concentrate mixed in water, and plain ole water (yummy)!! Hanging in...:smile:   Like most people who post I am constantly thinking of what the future will bring only I want it to come much faster than it is. Trying not to let myself get to discouraged! I don't want to set unrealistic goals, but I think this is what is happening! Trying to remain positive!:thumbup:   I am trying to stay focused on lots and lots of PROTIEN. It sometimes seems hard when you look around the cafe at lunch time and see all the good food and worse when you can smell it before you reach your lunch time. I am trying to stay faithful and steadfast to myself and my dream, but I sometimes feel pretty weak.   Thank You to all the Bandsters who post on this site that keep me encouraged and motivated.:tt1:

9 months post-op

Well I guess it's time I check in again and post on my progress. I got my last fill back in January and I have somehow managed to lose another 20lbs or so. I am filled at 5.5cc in a 10cc band. My current weight is 253 which is down from my pre-surgery weight of 309. My highest weight was 324. So that is 54 lbs with the band and a total weight loss of 70lbs. I really can't complain about the band so far, being as though I have been able to lose a significant amount of weight and I didn't have to kill myself doing it. I am still doing some exercise, such as dancing, playing basketball, or just plain walking. I will admit I don't have the routine part down yet but I've never been a very routine person anyway (my real problem).   I have another appointment to see the GI doctor for a possible fill in 2 weeks. I am really debating whether I want this fill. I have good restriction (I get full on a cup of food), but the food moves through pretty quickly and I am hungry often. I guess this is a sign that I need a fill. Also, I have been losing really slowly within the last few weeks. I keep fluctuating with the same few pounds and haven't gotten below the 250 mark yet. I think it's time to beef up my exercise plan and be more strict with my diet (HARD). I'm a little worried that more restriction might be a bad thing. I don't want to be so restricted that all I want to eat are soft foods. I want to be able to eat but I don't want to be hungry alot like I am now. I think I am going to discuss it with my doctor - ask for a small fill - and see if he agrees. Well until next time! Good luck to all in your weightloss goals!:thumbup:

bumpy journey with Lola
 

been a hard year

Well since April last year I now weigh around 180kg. I didnt have fill put in my band and The post traumatic stress from my assault last feb really took a toll on me. carbs became my best friend and I had a broken wrist and Ankle at the same time and spent 5 months in a wheel chair, my darling poppa passed in May (my only father figure) and then my nan in November. In december I finally snapped out of the fog and I have had some fill put in the band but I still sabotage myself. Weight so isnt about what you put in your mouth BUT why you put it in your mouth. I bought a mini pedal bike last thursday it arrived and i have done 40 mins 3 times now. Easter was bad as I had all the chocolate I was given but its almost gone now so now its up to me to get on my lil bike and pedal to weight loss. I am having surgery on my wrist tomorrow and its sad that 14 months after my assault my body still isnt healed, but my mind is almost ready to get going again. Really no one can force you into this you need to be ready to decide what you are willing to put into your body. Ive done 20 mins on my bike and my last easter egg is sitting here and I know I am going to eat it and then all the chocolate is gone and I can be on my way once more Here is to a new year!!!

Need a lap band fill doctor in the Katy Texas area

Hello, I need to fina a great fill doctor in the Katy, Tx. area. I have had my band since Oct. 2005. I had 3 fills, lost 82 lbs, then had my band emptied due to an out of state business trip that lasted 7 weeks....I didn't want to take a chance of having any problems being so far away from my home and doctor. Now.........I have moved to Katy, gained 25 lbs and need a good fill doctor to help me get back on track! I have searched and found Dr.Ricardo Bonner, but thought I would ask for assistance before calling to make an appointment. Can anyone give me any advice? Thank you, Carolyn

Grrrr! 4/5/10

So, since my husband has a few days off before leaving on his partial deployment I wanted to try & squeeze in some of the appointments on Dr. Oh's list.   Not so fast.   I called the office today & spoke with Karen. (I think that was her name.) She told me that I was only partially approved by the insurance. Super. I thought I was good to go for the whole dealy-o.   I take it that they only requested approval for the first few things - consultation, endoscopy & follow-up, and a couple extra office visits.   None of the other things can be scheduled until I have insurance approval for the actual surgery.   I think Karen might have thought I was wanting to schedule the surgery pdq. Well, I do, but... :thumbup: She asked when I expected to have surgery & I said I was hoping for mid/end of July. She said "ok, we're scheduled out that far" (like she was looking at a calendar & thinking out loud).   She said she'd fax the request over to my insurance company today. I kinda got the feeling that I was bothering Karen. I hate being a problem child. I strive to be as low-maintenance as possible, really I do!   Great. If that's not the normal evolution of things I don't want to rock the boat & risk getting kicked out of this exclusive club.   Since I'm already approved for the first few things, they'll most likely approve the surgery too, right? This is all messing with my head!   I really wish there was another surgeon on this side of the state who would accept my insurance.   Pac Surgical is a heck of a lot closer to me & I recall from the seminar I attended a while back, they don't have nearly as many pre-op requirements. Unfortunately they don't want to deal w/ my insurance. Not many do...   I'm so frustrated. If my husband's boss wouldn't have waited until two days before the start of the leave period to approve the plans, I might have actually been able to get the ball rolling much earlier & schedule stuff while my husband is available to take care of our son.   I'm thankful that I have a friend who said she'd help me by watching my son, but I'm one of a dying breed who doesn't like to impose on other people by dumping my child on them... I'd rather that my husband try to take care of these sorts of things ourselves.   I do appreciate her offer of help, and I will need it now that things aren't going as smoothly as I'd hoped.   I feel like I could cry from frustration. :tt1: Definitely can't revert to my habit of eating out of frustration, because one of the many pre-op requirements is losing 10% of my body weight. I've been told that Dr. Oh YELLS at patients who aren't losing appropriately.   As a side note, if anyone from Dr. Oh's office is listening (I know, not likely)... It would be extremely helpful for patients (probably staff too) if a timeline or list of appointments, events, and expectations was handed out at the consultation.   A lot of my questions would've been answered by something like that, and I wouldn't have bothered the staff with my phone calls.   Once I have a handle on things, I think I'll post one here on my blog so it might be of help to someone else.

From then to now...

Almost a week since my April Fool's Day first blog posting, and i've finally procrastinated myself into this 1.39am effort. I told myself that i would record this journey, and i will.   I know to do so, is important for me because i must always remember what life is like now at my heaviest, 193.5kg (427lbs)... for those days when i want to give up on the struggle to stay on my pre-op diet, or post-op when things might get a little rough and i feel frustrated.   If you chance upon this blog, this blurb, is just so (if the going ever gets tough) i can come back and read this and remember... why.   As it stands today, i struggle to think of a time in my life ever... when life with food, wasn't a struggle for me. As a baby i was a little 'pudgy' but in a relatively 'healthy' way. I was certainly active enough and full of strife too, from all accounts. Even as a toddler, i have pics of me still 'pudgy' but within the realms of the wider 'normal weight' for age.   From my first and second grade pics tho, i was taller and wider than most of the other girls, and i suspect was already starting to overeat and probably not exercise as much as i should have for my age. I seemed to be pudgy one year and taller and slimmer the next, though never as slim as the other girls. I had a little double chin in my Grade 3 photo.   Even then, i was still fairly fit. I was quite good at sports, and on every team we had at school. Between myself and my best friend... we were Captain of all but a few of the teams as well.   I was a good swimmer and represented my district and even twice, my state in sports. I think i had the height, size and strength rather than the agility and that held me in good stead for a spot on most teams. I was also a pretty good strategist and good at motivating and organising others.   I grew up on a farm and we worked every day before and after school. Most weekends in between team sports fixtures, we worked as well. At that time, i was 'chunky' and probably even 'fat' by todays standards, but think all the activity i was doing was holding my obesity at bay.   Certainly when i hit senior and gave up most sports to study and work part time in a pizza place, the weight started to pile on. I didn't really notice, i guess because i had plenty of friends, got good grades, was voted class captain each year, and made the school honour roll. Some would call that kind of thinking, denial. Today i would agree with them.   In college that trend continued, only now i was starting out on the 'dieting' merry-go-round. I would lose 10 or 15 kg's (30-40lbs) and then gain it all back and then some within a few short months. I hated my size by then, and avoided most sports as a result.   By the time i was 21 i was 120+kg (260lbs). I remember losing about 40kb (100lbs) and feeling pretty good about myself. Life was good, and then a series of unfortunate things happened... life's ups and downs... and my weight went with up and down, right along with them.   Through my 20's, with all the parties... when i wasn't eating i was drinking. Even that i did to excess too, ending up hospitalised and told to give up the booze of else! I did that, and the eating took over, even more completely. Add to this, smoking... a habit that would quickly turn into 50 cigs / day to try and help me ward off hunger pangs.   I really can't begin to complain tho, because even as a 'bigger' girl, i really did have it all in many ways. I had a good education; a great job that paid really well; a nice feller that i was to marry the following year.. flash car; fun holidays; many friends... but life's what happens while you're busy making plans.   It's a long story, but somewhere in the middle of that, my world caved in, and i just could not cope with the reality of what happened. I left and without planning or even a necessarily a destination... went overseas.   To this day, i'm not sure what i was looking for, but i didn't find it overseas. As my friends referred to it, my "world tour of war zones" (i seemed to have a penchant for going to dangerous places) showed me a lot about life and a little about me.   Mind i had the time of my life... but yet still, 41 countries later, i was stunned at the realisation of how little had changed when i finally got home. I had changed a little however, and managed to lose a fair amount of weight whilst trapsing from one end of the planet to the other... carrying that huge backpack.   For a long time it was the hardest thing settle down and get back to work. So I studied, and then studied some more. I was bored for the excitement perhaps, so i began trying for promotions again. These came fairly easily, and quickly. I was once again successful at what i did, and happy. I had a great life, and the time and motivation to eat well and exercise... and i lost more weight.   Enter, my now ex-husband. I'm not sure how to explain what happened next, but when he asked me to marry him... it seemed like the next right thing to do, settle down and start a family. He seemed so perfect for me too.   So what happened... i lost a son, my sister died of a brain tumour, his brother committed suicide, and i was working 60 hours a week and coming home to raise two little girls on my own and run his business too.   Somewhere in it all of that i lost myself in a relationship that was to become so incredibly and entirely toxic that it nearly killed me and my kids... literally!   PTSD for the kids and i, divorce, bankruptcy, major upheaval from our home, my work, and then having to nurse my mother as she died of leukaemia. All in the space of about 5 years. Long days and even longer nights and i was so very very, tired... eating anything in front of me, my weight ballooned again to 160+kg's (350lbs). Then, i gave up smoking... and the final 30kg's came quickly.   That day not so long ago when i stood on the scales and saw 193.5kg's (427lbs)really scared me. Already i was having mobility, health and every day life related problems. Sitting there, that morning too, i knew that no program alone, not theirs or anyone else's, let alone any diet... was enough to help me.   That's why, the next day... 07 March 2010. 07.03.10, my Mum's lucky numbers.. i decided to have the LAP-BAND® surgery. I know people do this for many reasons, all of which are valid. I know in my heart though that i am doing this not just to lose weight or even to look better... but, rather.. to save my life.   It really is such a relief in many ways to know that in 77 days time, I will being having surgery... and turning the corner on this life to a new and better one.   I haven't even had surgery, and just meeting fellow banders, listening to and reading their stories, i have already started asking myself... why didn't i just do this sooner!?   Thanks for letting me rant... crickey, it's 4.00am here, so i best hit the rack!   Nite all xox

Easter Dinner

My turn to host the Easter dinner - after I had to convince the "fam" that no, the gastric band procedure did not remove my abilities in the kitchen! Par for the course - despite the fact that I had a whole dinner arranged, my m-i-l had to bring not only the scratch rolls(which I asked her to make - but not enough to feed 20 people), but also a pie and two dozen sweet rolls - for six people?! My s-i-l brought a salad(which I asked her to) but also a pasta salad and a fruit salad in heavy, sugary sauce - again, we're talking 5 adults and a toddler. Of course my s-i-l has DMII but doesn't "believe" she's a diabetic and doesn't like to eat the "healthy stuff" I make. That's defined as veggies you can recognize, not hidden in over sauced cassoroles. So she has to bring her own "contributions" which load up most of her plate.   Upon arriving my m-i-l says, "How's your little diet going?!" (still clueless no matter how many times I've explained the procedure) and my s-i-l; aka the MegaPhone Mouth from the Motor City starts the questions - "How much have you lost?", "Are you going to eat?", "Can you eat this?", "Can you eat that?" I just about lost it!   So, when everyone arrived and was hanging out before chow time I said something to the effect of, "This is it - get your questions in now, because I'm not going through this at every family get together nor am I going to give you material to gossip to any and everyone about me, my procedure, why I had it, what I eat, don't eat, wear/no longer wear etc! It's getting boring for everyone and since some of you can't respect my privacy, I simply am not going to put it out there." No sooner than I left the room, my s-i-l is grilling my husband! God love him - I could hear him tell her, "You heard with Jill said - let it go!" Later my nephew caught me in the kitchen and thanked me for having the "balls" to stand up to the "gossip girls"!:thumbup:

So.....

.....this is what they call "Bandster Hell". I have officially entered and it is definitely hell. The hunger pains are here in full force. It took about 6 days. I was good on Saturday until it hit evening. The fluids are just not enough. You don't really understand what this is like until it hits you and when it hits, its all at once and doesn't go away until the next phase!! I just want to scream and cry....actually, I have done both.   So, I am hungry. I am trying to figure out if its head hunger and I really don't think it is.   Easter was HARD yesterday (BTW: Hope all had a good holiday!). I had to drink my chicken broth and watch everyone else chow down. Hard when I am very hungry. Very emotional day.   So, i called my doctors office today to moan about my hunger pains, my emotional pains and my head pains. The woman I talked to was sooo nice and very supportive and told me all kinds of nice things to do to help keep my mind off of food. Told me to look at the big picture, about how great I am going to look and feel, etc. But, no eating until my next appointment (April 9). 4 more days. I can do it. I know she has heard it all before but i really appreciate how nice and supportive she was. This is really taking everything out of me. I have never been told not to eat! I am actually scared to cheat. I can't cheat. I have gone this far. I will only be disappointed in myself. Plus, if I cheat and everything goes down nicely, whats the reason i won't cheat again?   So, in good news, i have lost 9 pounds since surgery bringing my weight to 202. It doesn't feel like i have lost all this weight though. It could be because i am still swollen where the incisions are and my stomach is bloated. I have an appointment with the surgeon tomorrow to check them out so hopefully she can tell me when to expect to feel normal again!   I am off to eat some more jello.

Sunshine2's (Tonya's) Journal
 

4/5/10

Well, back on the HCG diet - started it again on 4/01.   I did pretty good until Tuesday night (3/30). Had a late dinner and did not make good choices, ate fried chicken tenders, fried shrimp, and french fries, then had two drinks!!! Can you say yuk? Anyhow, by Thursday morning was up 7 pounds. Good news, I'm down 5 of the 7 pounds in 4 days. I know a lot ot it that I gained was water weight, alcohol seems to do that to me.   Anyhow, will stay on HCG until 4/21, leaving for my puerto vallarta trip on 4/22. So I will be taking another "break" for about 4 or 5 days from the HCG diet.   I will "try" and not over indulge in to much fruity alcohol drinks, but can't make promises. :thumbup:   I just love sipping on an umbrella drink by the beach or pool! I love the sunshine, I hate the winter!   Wearing a size 6 - thats right a size 6 capri pant today!!!!! I love it! I am totally loving my legs these days. My cellulite is even disappearing, I still have some, but not near as bad. I really am seeing the changes in my body, the fat is truly melting away. I'm a believer!

Ready...Set...Eat?? NOT! *lol* P.S. The REAL journey begins!

Howdy good people,   I know you may think I’ve fallen wayyyy off the wagon b/c I’ve been so quiet… But *tahdah* – I’m sitting tall & strong.   The reason for the online version of the food journal being M.I.A. For the last couple of weeks is because of time – work has been hella crazy (which is when I do 90% of my blogging *lol*) and home has been even crazier.   I also decided last weekend that this week was going to be one of food leisure. Not over indulgence, mind you, but eating what I wanted within reason since $h!t gets really real next week: the official Dr. Monitored weightloss program, nutritional counseling & and physical training begins on 4/6 , as well as some of the testing I have to go thru (sleep study is Monday). Which means I have to be on my A-game.   The good part? Its gonna be easy. I realized last week, that without a doubt – my relationship with food HAS changed. I’m aware of everything I put in my mouth, almost every bit nutritional data about said food, and I’m forcing myself to think about how “worth” something is to me before I put it in my mouth. Some things are soooooo worth it – like the choco cupcake from curbside cupcakes the other day. And other’s aren’t (like the 2nd vanilla cupcake I purchased at the same time, but decided to give it to a coworker instead of eat it myself ) I’m aware of how much juice I drink – which is very little these days. And any soda is diet. I opt for fruit as dessert most times, and love the fact that I have more energy as of late. Even for Easter dinner - I noticed how much smaller my portions were, and how little I ate compared to say, Christmas. and only one tiny sliver of my g'mas lemon cake? Yeah, I'm making progress!   I’m pretty friggen proud of myself. I’m down maybe 2more lbs over the past week, so I’m doing something right. People are even beginning to notice. *grin* Best part is, I’m not denying myself…and I’m not starving. I’m just thinking about how my (food choices) affect the bottom line – to truly become the VANISHING vixen. Geeyonce is slowly revealing herself… *uh oh uh oh uh oh uh oh*

Bad Beth, bad.

Okay, first the bad news for the week. I gained a 1/2 pound this week. Ugh. That is made even worse by the fact that it is only the 2nd week after a fill and I had a two pound loss going into the holiday weekend. Double ugh. Whatever possessed me to eat a bunch of ice cream, candy and cookies? What's up with that?   On a positive note, I have been very true to my exercise committment. I've been thinking that that I have done well with a fitness goal and started to think about what I will do after my 8 week committment is over. I think that I am leaning toward a "Couch to 5K" program. I hate running, but it isn't THAT far and with a goal to achieve...I just might be able to do it. Monday-10 min on the treadmill. Tuesday-30 min on the elliptical. Wednesday-hour with personal trainer. Thursday-30 min on the elliptical. Friday-hour with personal trainer. Saturday-hour of Jazzercise. Sunday-25 min on the treadmill.   I'm pleased that I worked out 7 times (every day!), but I'm disappointed that it only adds up to 3 1/2 hours. I would really like to be more at the 5-6 hour range. There is work to be done! :thumbup:   I have four more weeks in my exercise program. So, I will focus on putting in as much time as possible!   I feel better and truly that is the most important thing!!   I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! Have a great week!!

11 weeks out

Things are going fantastic. I feel better than I have in many years. I'm down 42 lbs. I have 2 times as much enegery as I had before. I can't wait to see how much more energy I get after dropping another 40 lbs or so.   I had a great NSV this weekend. I hiked to the top of Helen Hunt Falls. :sneaky2: I cried when I got back down to the bottom. It was such an emotional moment for me. It took me an hour, but I did it!!! I had attempted it 4 other times (once when I was 20 lbs lighter) and failed. It was hard and every muscle in body hurts today. I could hardly get out of bed this morning. lol   Anyone out there wondering if this surgery works...it does. I'm a testimony to it.   :scared0:

Got to pace myself

I thought this would be easier. Somehow I thought the weight would just fall off. I am restricted but their is much work to do. My end of the bargain so to speak. I was travelling away from home and thought I could eat some scrambled eggs and sausage from McDonald's, NOPE! Came right up on the 5th bite. Yuck! I won't be eating that again. Planning is key with this new lifestyle, you have to plan what you will be eating or else. I also have to get moving at the gym. Its hard because I am tired most days. I will get moving today though.:thumbup:
