So I got out my measuring cup put one cup of water in it and then got out one of my tuber ware bowels and poured the water in there and was surprised it fit. So Thats what I well be eating out of.
I have really been doing great. I went to the gym on thur, and fri. I rested the weekend. And Today I met with my personal trainer. Well low and behold, got weighted in today and I'm weighing in at 227. I'm Happy and I hope to keep this up. Have a good day all. :wub:
So today I went to take one of my pills. I always cut in in half, which i did today. The first half went down just fine now the second one went down wrong and my band let me no just that. And a few seconds later up came the pill. Now I feel a lot better. Self correcting error is what I call it.
So two days ago I got really disappointed in myself, because I did something I shouldn't have. That night I said a long pray and God answered it for me. The very next day I got my head into the game and I'm proud to say I have been to the gym two days in a row. And today alone I did a mile and a half on the traidmill and a half mile on the eliptical. Go Team Me!
Hello all thought I would stop by and give an update. I went and saw my doctor today for my follow up appt. All went well. I can officially start mushies. Have to wait a week before I can start water aerobics. So I well be hitting the gym in the morning. I will get my first fill on March 5. I want to be down 10 pounds by then. I think I can do it.
I finally got some good ole sleep. Haven't posted in a few day's. Just thought I give a little update. Was banded on the 21st. went back to work on the 28th. and have been feeling pretty good. Other than not being able to sleep until last night I slept really good. I'm doing pretty good with my protein and fluid intake so I'm happy about that. I have my follow up appt on tues. and can't wait for that. I have no problems just want to hear what the doctor has to say. Everybody enjoy you day.
Awww I'm still on the post opt-diet liquids wont start mushies till I see my doctor next week. But I want to chew so band its killing me but I can hold out. Just want to vent a little
So I am 7 day's post opt and I haven't had a good nights sleep since. Has anybody else gone through this also. Everything else is fine just not sleeping.
Like the title say day 4 post-opt and boy do i feel a lot better, not quite 100% yet but I feel good just the same. I'm able to move a lot better and the gas, well I still have it just not as bad. Just wanted to give a little update.
I was banded on monday but since then i haven't been able to sleep all night. The gas pain is easing up a little but i want to sleep has anyone else went through or going through something like this and if so what did you do. And yes I have been walking.
ok so this is day two post opp and i no this is gross but i am so happy to be passing gas im able to move around a little more today each day gets better
Well like the title say im very disappointed right now. I have been doing very good with my pre-opt dist haven't cheated at all. My husband and I discussed me having surgery which im having tomorrow. So I tell him not to tell anybody and i do mean anybody cause this is my journey. and what do my husband do tell his parents. and he lied about it. im pissed and its stuff like this that sets be back. dont worry i still didnt eat anything but boy i could right about now.
Ok so today is the my last day of the pre-opt diet and what a challenge it was. But I succeed non the less. I will weigh myself tomorrow to give you guys another update on my weight loss. Also, BDay is tomorrow can you say super excited. not nervous at all.
ok people its day 12 of the pre- opt diet and i must say im doing better that i ever thought i would. if i haven't told yall thank you for all the support yall have given me. two more days then is my bad day.
So today is day 8 and as of yesterday im down 7 pounds. Who would of thought It. In the beginning of my journey I didn't think the me losing weight was a reality but as I read each and one of the post on year yall give me hope. Received a phone call today for the doctors and the moved my time from 1 p.m to 3 p.m. and it just clicked in my head. That this is becoming a reality I'm changing my life for the better. Well just wanted to share what was on my mind. Hope everyone have a good day.
Just giving a little update. I'm on day six so far so good. yesterday was so so. A co-worker was eating some old bay wings and boy oh boy did they smell good. She offered me so and as bad as I wanted to eat just one I didn't. I'm really proud of myself for that. With this pre-opt diet I'm learning more of myself each day. Mainley that I do have will power and I can do this. :wub:
Good Evening all,
So today I'm in day 4 of this pro-opt diet and i can say i feel great. But I see why they say drink plently of water. If you don't you will pay for it....
So I have a co-worker who was banded in February, and when I tell you she has been helping me, she is a God Send. I'm half way through my my first day of pre-surgery liquid diet. When I felt myself getting hungry I went for a walk and it helped. I see that when the hungry pains come in to drink water and do things to take your mind off of it. Mind Over Matter!! I will be checking back in tomorrow. Plus I will be doing before and after pic's soon. Jan 21, 2013 will be here before I no it.
Well ladies and gentlemen the time has finally come. My insurance company finally approved me. I guess this is my early Christmas gift, and what a gift it is. Can you say excited.com.org.net.... I will have my surgery sometime in January which is even better. New year New Me. Happy Holiday's all and I will be posting updates soon.
I'm new to this site and have a question, I'm wondering about the pain after the surgery. How much pain to expect. What will I be able to do afterwards.
