I-wanna-be-a-loser

Just keep moving. Sounds like you are doing great! Stalls happen. Try more water and more walks. Also if you are at a weight that you have been at for a while in the past your body might just be happy there for a bit and you have to really work to get it going again . You can do this!!

Well you have lost more weight than I have... You should be telling me!!! hahaha

My husband Chris thinks the rumbling is funny... My baby Jeremy looks at me funny. It is a new part of our life, go with the flow.

@loretta - I wear mostly yoga pants these days... I haven't noticed much of a size change as they are so stretchy... I am fitting some size 15 jeans that I could not do up in November though..

Yeah I am eatting mushy foods like refried beans, chili, potatoes, soft veggies.

1. I slept well the night b4

2. Pain was tolerable, took aobut 4 days to feel "normal"

3. rewarding? I am 8 days out from surgery and down 9 pounds!! Add the 10 I lost during pre-op diet and I am aready at 25% of my goal of 80 pounds!!!

4. I am currently on puree. I am loving turkey breast with green and regular onions with a bit of mayo. YUM! also, more protien shakes, yop, pudding, jello (all sugar/fat free), anything in a magic bullet.

5. Dealing with the cost... I am a self payer...

You will rock this!!

My fingers are crossed for you!! Good Luck!!

Try try try it all on first b4 you buy it!

Losing during bandster hell is awesome!!!! Keep it up!!

Are you getting your multi vitamin in you? I was so tired all day long till I started taking one and a calcium suplement.

Sounds like you are doing amazing!! The sadness over the loss of food is considered normal. We all will take some time realizing we can't eat as much as we used to.

26 pounds is amazing!! How long ago did you weigh in at 350? A month?? I am curious. You are going to be in the 200's in no time at all!!

Where did you start? weight wise? I am 220 and hoping to get to 150..

Yay for the green zone!!!

Way to go!! How long have you been banded??

Your turnaround and new light on food intake is awesome!!! This totally proves that the lapband will be a great success for you!! One step at a time right!? We are all going to haave slips with or without the band, but now we know what to do to get back on track. We know what it feels like to eat healthy, have energy, and feel "good"

Keep it up!! And congrats on 13 years of marrage!!!

The diet I am on now is NOT my surgeons pre-op diet assigned to me. I choose to do a 2 week diet b4 my surgeons assigned diet just to get the ball rolling. I did not want to be starving and craving when I had no wiggle room.

I do not have to start that until the 15th of November. When I start the actual pre-op diet I will be eating 3 protien shakes, and 250 calories of low glycemic veggies. I am sure every surgeon decides what has worked best for them and their clients and goes from there.

46 pounds is fantastic!! Keep that positive attitude!!
