JAN. 24, 2011 - MONDAY - 1 WK. POST OP - WELL I WENT TO MY DR. APPT. TODAY. I LOST 10 MORE LBS. TOTAL WT. LOSS 26 LBS. YEH! :rolleyes: MY STERI STRIPS WERE TAKEN OFF AND THE INCISIONS ARE HEALING WELL. MY DIET WAS ADVANCED TO PUREED. NO MORE PROTEIN SHAKES - YEH! :lol: I AM TO RETURN IN 1 WK. FOR MY NEXT APPT. I WENT TO WALMART TO CELEBRATE BY BUYING SOME NONFAT AND SUGAR FREE FOOD FOR MYSELF. WHEN I GOT HOME I MADE MYSELF SOME PUREED TUNA WITH A BIT OF FAT FREE MIRACLE WHIP AND HAD SOME NO ADDED SUGAR APPLESAUCE AND A SMALL CONTAINER OF HIGH FIBER PEACH YOGURT. IT TASTED YUMMY! I FELT SATISFIED. I HAVE TO REMEMBER THOUGH - NO DRINKING 1/2 HR. BEFORE OR AFTER A MEAL. AND NO MORE THAN 3/4 CUP OF FOOD EACH MEAL. :P I THINK I OVERDID IT TODAY - I AM VERY TIRED SO I THINK I WILL GO TO BED NOW! GOODNITE ALL!!!! :)

    <P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">I am so glad to see that things are going well for you. It gets better over time, and you will learn what does and do not work well for you and your band. Some days I am able to eat certain foods and the next day my band may be a little tighter than before. You just need to learn how to listen to your band to determine what works well for you. Don't judge yourself by others too much, because we all react differently when it comes to certain foods. I do wish you the best and I pray your weight lost continue. <SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Once you feel up to it, working out will maximize your weight lost.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I break my workouts into two parts.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I do some in the morning before work and the remaining at night time before bed.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I also walk as much as possible while I am at work.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Those are just a few things that help me!<IMG class=bbc_emoticon alt=:rolleyes: src="http://www.lapbandtalk.com/public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif"> </SPAN></P>
