So, I had my fill tues & I'm down a few lbs yaaaay!! I'm enjoying some Wedy's Chili right now. I never ate this before my surgery but I eat it alot now. Something to think about for the newly banded soon. I'm gonna try to stay away from white carbs too. I hope this helps. I don't think I'll be working out for awhile. I damaged my back some how. I went to the chiro & she took x rays. Right where I have my pain my spine jets over to that side squishing into my ribs too. It hurst when i take deap breathes too. It really sucks when you REALLy get hurt! Ya complain about little aches & then you get a BIG one. I don't know how I did it????? After I had my last baby I felt a little kink there. went awawy for years & now I got pain in that exact spot. So she thinks maybe from child birth or carrying them. I've had too adjustments so far & go back thurs. ttyl! Hang in there!!!!!

24 lbs!!! GREAT!!! How long now?

Well I have to say my experience at the Brigham yesteday wasn't great either. The people doing valet are completely RUDE! You sit there & no one directs you or even looks at you 1/2 the time! This has been my experience EVERYTIME!!! The only time there nice is when they brin the car back & want a TIP!! I'm in such a MOOD today & my kids ar driving me crazy (FYI) !!! At my app Dr. V leaves the rm & has her assistant come in & TRY to do my fill. OF course she kills me & never finds it. That is the LAST time that happends! Dr. V finds it right away after. So I was down like 3 lbs in 6 weeks. Oh well it's something in the right direction. I got a small fill & I'mm still doing liquids/ cream soups today for now. K8 & Thinking~sounds like you had same type of day lol!

k8~ I saw that on the site too but I was hoping it was wrong. Oh man~ I was hoping to go tonight to the meeting. I'll try to make my next fill on the day of the next meeting in Nov. I go for my fill tonight at 4pm. I'll probably ask for another small one. I feel tighter all of a sudden {??????} Don't know why. I'm brining my food journaling w/ me to ask what am I doing wrong!?!?!?!? I wonder if I'll have a loss on Dr. V scale? Hope all is well! :cursing:

Hey everyone! I have a fill tomorrow night Oct 6th. Are the meeting the 3rd tues of month or 1st?? If it's tomorrow I will go.

WOW! tredmill already?!?!? Glad your feeling better! :tongue2:

Oh I feel bad about your little one being sick. I totally understand. She will be ok & so will you. :biggrin:

OH thank goodness!!!! :bored: To tell ya the truth I was really nervous about the gas because after I had my tubes tide the gas pain was crushing. I had no problem though. Keep us posted! CONGRATS your BANDED!!!! :smile2:

Hi Sandy, Don't worry. I have not experienced any of the PBing ect.. As for fills/unfills I have BC/BS too & mine are always free unlimited. :tongue2: Great job on your weight loss already! :wub:

Just thought I'd update. I am doing MUCH better! I have started exercising again & measuring my food plus counting cals. I have lost 4-5 lbs & have gained my motivation back! :wink: I have been using My daily plate. You list your food & it tracks EVERYTHING.

PS~ I couldn't do it,,,,,,,,,,,I picked my scale out of the trash :laugh:. I'm trying to be goos today but that bag of chips is calling me. Especially since my scale let me down again :cursing:!

Get a tiny fill if you can. Did you hurt yourself workingout? I can't get anyone to watch the girls for me. No meeting this time. :laugh:

Hey everyone. I'm a little upset today. I HATE my scale!!!! I had not weighed myself since sunday & did today & was WAY up again!!! I tossed my scale in the trash this morning. I HATE that thing! :thumbup:

Thanks!!! Today~ walked 2 mLs

Well, I'm quoting myself because I have some news to share. FINALLY, the scale moved FOUR POUNDS!!! I have been measuring my food & walking again. :smile: I tried measuring a 1/2 cup solid Protein w/ salad or cooked veggies. I have been eating lots of chicken salad, tuna, hamburg.

Good for you!!!!

Well, I'm quoting my last check in because I had to share that I finally broke that plateau. I weighed myself yesterday & the scale went down 4 POUNDS!!!! Finally after about 2 wks. Can anyone tell me about there averge weightloss monthly when your doing everything you should be (exercise,water, diet, ect)?
