  1. Well, I messed up on day 2. DH and I went to town to do some errands and he wanted Chinese. I ate Chinese. Oh well, it could have been worse. I'm back to liquids again and I am going to do the treadmill for longer tonight.
  2. I survived Day 1!!! It wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I went to my mom's and she had cooked. She also had German Chocolate cake. I stuck to the liquids though. Congrats to all of us who survived day 1 and good luck to all those starting!
  3. Happy New Year everyone! Good luck to everyone this year on their weight loss! Today starts the big day lol. I have had 2.5 cups of coffee. Time to go make a lovely protein shake!
  4. TY Leslie! You are right! I would have made myself sick from eating the fish. Last night though, I got a couple of pieces and had to put one back! I like reading your posts btw; you are hilarious!
  5. OK I cheated yesterday as well. I started the day off doing really well until my hubby came home from fishing. I had to fry fish and I ate some. Then I figured well I have already messed up so why not eat this last piece of cake to get it out of the house! Then this morning, I got up and my hubby had actually cooked breakfast. I haven't eaten yet, but I know I will. So, the liquids will start TOMORROW! (Gosh I feel like such a failure!)
  6. I am starting liquids today. I have been so depressed that I have gained 11 lbs. I have been walking on the treadmill for 35 minutes everyday since Saturday, but I have been eating wrong. I am really glad to know that I am not alone. I have felt like a failure. Thanks for starting this thread and getting me motivated.
  7. I never did quit. I need to, but I haven't.
  8. I was banded on April 4th. Today is the first day that I have really felt better. The gas pain is the worse. Like every one else, the key is walking, walking, walking. I have the same gurgling sound, but I am not hungry. I can not get all the liquids in. I weighed and was so disappointed. I had gained 2 lbs. I am hoping it is just gas though. I know it can't be what I am eating because the most I have had to eat was a half cup of cream of chicken soup and 2 sf fudgesicles. Glad to hear everyone is getting better and good luck to all of you who are having surgery soon!
