I swear by Activia. I was REALLY struggling with this...then I tried the "2 week Activia challenge" and it worked! Actually there was consistent movement by day three! I am feeling so much better....it was truly making me feel miserable...and it helped to see the scale drop some too!
I eat one activia yogurt or one activia cottage cheese everyday.

I only have 4

I lost 8 pounds preop...the rest after...I know I must sound ridiculous...and I AM proud of the 35 lbs...I just feel like it would be dropping off even faster....I have met so many people that aren't excercising and stilll losing...or still eating junk and still losing...just confusing. I know it's different for everyone...
I get my second fill on March 13th...hoping for more restriction....as I am still in the willpower stage. I mean don't get me wrong...it's less than ever...but still not where I think I am supposed to be.
Thank you everyone for the kind words and the encouragement

Thank you sooooo much...especially for not hating me :rolleyes2:
I tried increasing my calories for two days...I gained a pound...panicked...and stopped! Am I wrong?
My two works outs include walking (2 miles in 30 minutes) in the morning...and then a core training dvd (30 min) or cardio at the gym (60 min) at night...depending on whether I have time for the gym or just the dvd at my house.

ok...so first...please PLEASE please don't take offense to this or hate me. You should be very proud of your weight loss and accomplishments. This is a struggle...and that's my gripe...is the problem I'm having with my weight loss struggles...
Like I said don't hate me....
I had surgery a day after you...I am down less weight than you...and I'm confused. I have not allowed myself anything as unhealthy as you described...I am eating a healthy 1000 calories a day...I'm working out two times a day...what am I doing wrong? Shouldn't I be losing more...if I'm not allowing myself pizza or birthday cake?
I'm going nuts here...and again...PLEASE don't take this wrong...I just want to know why I'm not losing more. I read about people that are eating not so healthy foods...or not excercising...and their still losing!
PLEASE HELP

Congrats to you! That's awesome. I only got to 182....but I'm still thrilled!!!

I wore a pair of pants I haven't been able to wear in over two years. I went shopping in my closet....found tons of stuff I can wear that I haven't been able to!!!

I personally really like the cottage cheese. And I love the strawberry yogurt. Like the raspberry...just could go without the seeds!
-
I'm close....I gave myself till the 19th...exactly two months from surgery. My goal is 180...and I'm at 185 right now...so don't think I'm gonna make it....but I'm still psyched. I wore a pair of dress pants this week that I haven't worn in two years! That was very rewarding!!!

So I was struggling with MAJOR Constipation issues. It was making me feel miserable. I decided to take the two week Activia challenge...it has changed everything!!! I feel sooooo much better. I am eating an Activia yogurt or an Activia cottage cheese everyday...it's only been a week...and I feel sooooo much better.
Just wanted to spread the word for anyone having the same problems!

Wow...really....I felt it a little more today than yesterday...but I'm only half way through the day.
-
Thank you all for the words of encouragement. I know I shouldn't complain...the scale is still moving down...I just want to keep it that way! I appreciate having all of you here!

I have a 10cc band...no clue how much he put in. Stupid me didn't ask...
I start solids today...so I'm hoping to see a difference

So I had my first fill on Thursday. Was on liquids for two days and soft foods today. I am allowed to start regular foods tomorrow...PLEASE tell me I will feel something tomorrow....I feel NO difference right now...actually if it's possible I have been more hungry today then I've been in two weeks. My fill was under fluoro...and I know that helps with accuracy...my doc put Fluid in...watched barium...then added more...I watched it only trickle down....but I feel nothing! I really hope it will feel different with solids!
-
Had my first fill on Thursday...hoping it will kick in soon...not feeling much of a difference. It was under fluoro...thought I would really feel a difference. I am on soft foods...maybe it will change when I'm on regular foods tomorrow...here's hoping to some restriction!

I'm in South Jersey...used Dr. Goldstein...and New Beginnings program at Virtua.

Just bought this new stuff Bio Oil from Walgreens. $12 a bottle...but it really seems to be working...and it's only been 4 days.
-
I'm with ya....I am frustrated too. I have my fill this Thursday and I can't wait...HOWEVER....I am pretty excited to be exercising again. I was very active before I was fat...and I'm feeling great now that exercise is back in my life. HOLD ON....the rewards will come (at least that's what I keep telling myself!)
-
ok...so I don't think I will make my 175 goal by Feb 19th...BUT I don't care....I am so happy with the weight I'm losing...and all the excersing I'm doing...that I just want to keep that up. If I am 180 by then I will be thrilled! It's amazing how great the exercise can make you feel!
-
Got my fill scheduled. I go this Thursday Feb 7th. Not nervous at all...just really excited. REady to start losing some major pounds!

I AM HOOKED!!! I have been using it for a month now! Love it!!! It is perfect...I have the internet on my phone...I even use it right from my phone to log food....you can find anything and everything on there...it also take the paper out of the journaling...which works great for me in the technology driven world we live in!!!

Can anyone suggest a pedometer that they like?
