  1. you go JM! GOod plan. I hate counting all that crap too. SO every few weeks i will keep track on fitday.com for a few days just to see. My DOc/surgeon doesnt even want me counting calroeis! he said the whole point of the band was to get me to eat like a normal weight person, he said look at a heathly normal weight person, do they count calories? nope, yet they maintain a good BMI.
  2. well just keep at it JM. keep pushing at it and dont give up. My wife has notice she will lose nothing for 2 weeks then the next 2 weeks she loses a bunch and the next 2 nothing...weird huh. Gosh i have really godd restriction this morning! Even felt really full on a little egg beaters!
  3. good luck tonight. Thanks. But remeber i got ALOT more weight o lose than you The 5 min run is kinda cool. Its the first time i actually delt like i could settle in to something and start to feel like a runner. I notice the skinny ppl there take ALOT of notice of how long im jogging on there.
  4. JM! Better get your butt moving tonight! I know u had a lot on your mind of late so dont beat yourself up too much for missing alot...that my job! No exercise this morning, woke up with a huge headache so took som med and slept it off before work.
  5. Well i had a 3rd fill yesterday. I go to the doc every 4 weeks and by his scale i lost 12lbs since my last visit 4 weeks ago. About 65lbs total now! I would be happy with 2lb a week but ill take 12 in 4 weeks ! Went to our support group last night. Our surgeon talked this time, was excellant, dispelled alot of lap band myths or theorys that have been out dated. About 2.3 or roux y and rest are banders. OMG the roux y ppl have had alot of problems. This one chick was in ICU for 2.5 months after her roux y bypass! Not one bander has had a problem. He said he completed 141 lap bands so far and all have had no slipage! Phew!
  6. Well i went in yesterday and now im up to 4cc. Feel some good restriction i will take it easy today and see how it goes.

  9. I have a 10cc put in on August 6th 07. My doc said it was tight when he put it in so i might not need that much fill. Fist fill 2cc. felt something right away. Second fill 1cc total 3cc have restriction but not quite enogh. Third fill will be today. yahhhh.

  13. Tue...C25k week 4 workout 2...swimming 25 mins. Gosh its early.
  14. yeah i got myself in all kinds of trouble doing too much at once. The brain is willing its just the body i have to ever so gently bring up. I did swim for a lot of weeks before i even attempted it. Did week 4 day 2 today. Not too too bad. But it sure is a challange. I have to make sure i rest between days or it all goes horribly wrong.

  18. hey thanks Jamie. I try to remember its not a race. Im so used to instant gratifaction thats maybe why i over eat but this is not instant. as long as im going down im doing ok. i have a doc appointment every 4 weeks and as long as i lose 4 lbs min i will be ok!
  19. hi Jamie. Its hard to find ppl here that have ALOT of weight to lose like me. But slowly its coming off. I been going to the gym for almost 3 months now at least 5 days a week most of the time 7.
