Good idea I sit a my desk and starve so that has me making poor choices. Then it messes my day up. Then at night I eat more crap. I feel like a failure. Igh

I love this group it helps me so much! As far as exercising. Right not I am out of commission hopefully in a week or two I can get into the pool. I hurt my ankle bad hurt. But I think the doc is going to let me swim again. It's less impact. But I have been doing better lost 2 lbs because I am really ignoring the "it's ok" brain talk. I posted something else on this site about Breakfast and go some great ideas. So now I can start my day off on the right foot

So today was my first fill. I can't believe when I got on their scale 5 weeks after surgery I have lost 22 lbs from the beginning of my preop diet started:) yay.
Back to the fill it was the weirdest feeling ever!! No pain and he walked me thru the whole thing. Then he had me drink barium and took an X-ray. When I drank the stuff it was the worse he showed it going thru perfectly but I felt like it was stuck. So he took some out and I instantly felt better. He only took half a Cc out. I feel more like a bandster now that I it my first fill yay:)

That was a typo I lost 32lbs but yes yay! I am so happy and I think it was proof that I am serious about this.

I was very worried about going to solid food. I was on liquids two weeks before and 3 weeks after. It was good just so slow:) now me i need a fill I'm always hungry and I do everything I can do just to ignore!! One day a woke up (actually two days ago) and boom here is the hunger almost like my body said ahhhhahhh it's time to eat:) I was banded April 5

Today I start mashies it's been 5 weeks since I have eaten food at all. I never thought I would worry about eating

What is so funny is that I honestly thought i was going to fail it and not get my band. I was banded April 5.

I am good today I just am having problems with laying in my left side my right hips and back are screaming. Ugh

I'm sorry about your hubby!!! What a jerk!
I didn't really want my hubby to go. I figured since he hated hospitals he wouldn't want to go with me BUT I was wrong he went and I had no choice. I'm glad he did go. It was a bonding moment to see he really cared.

Ahhhhh I can't wait to loose enough weight to do a full change. Clothes hair all that food stuff. Girl if your ready go for it!!!

Really great advice thank you guys. I know it's time for healing. I'm ok with not loosing I just want to do everything right!!! I am a perfectionist when it comes to things I want so bad. Today I had grits for Breakfast wow I love it!!!! My diet for the first week after surgery was Clear Liquids only. So no Protein Shakes. I was just so worried I was taking in to much juice I thank everyone for the encouraging comments

I really want to be on the scale and tell my husband I weigh less than him lol. I love him but its time for a lesson to be leard. I am woman hear me roar!!! Lol but really I am a size 22-24 I want to shop in the cute clothes section. I can find ok things in my size but I am always saying wow why don't they have cute stuff like this in my size?

I get easier I'm on day 11 of pre op I'm not hungry at all anymore and I just cooked bacon and pancakes for my hubby and daughter:) but when I get my shakes out I am soooooo over them!! But lose 17lbs already almost done with them I get banded Friday finally!! Can wait to chew again!!!

Why is my pre op diet so strict? Ugh only 3 to 4 Protein Shakes and Water (I drink it with mio) holy hell!!! I'm finishing up day three. I went to a wedding today and reception with loads of yummy smelling food and plenty to drink. I wasn't at hungry just awkward that everyone else was eating and I was just sitting there drinking water. But I can at least say I didn't cheat and that was a test and I passed with flying colors:)

Trust me lol I have been looking up good for you recipes. Wow there are a lot that you wouldn't even have know just to change a few ingredance and wala it's good for you. My kids and husband are very aware that things will be changing my husband is happy but wooooo the kids are scared lol. But yes I am so full of anxiety and have to take zanex to calm myself.

It's almost here and I'm am so nervous!! I can say this the pre op diet is almost over. I hope I never have to drink a shake again (yeah right) but the thought makes me happy anyway
