Julie ann....I read that this morning on my wall. I was surprise. U will get it off. I know its hard with your business trips. I have faith in you!!!!
One day at a time. Keep the end prize in mind.I'm going to assume you meant "laid off" :tongue2: I'm sorry to hear about that. Congrats on this decision. It is a wonderful ride if you follow all the rules!
I remember that. I NEVER thought my surgery date would get here!
Oh Sarah, I'm refusing to weigh until at least Wednesday. I have had icecream every day this week. Back from my trip and nose back to the grindstone!
You are all getting so close!
Wow how exciting. My MIL and I are not that close, but it is great you are and to have someone to go through this with. Remember NOT to compare yourselves to each other. Each of you are different. If you lose at different rates then one of you might become discouraged. Be mindful of that and EXPECT it. That will help you prepare for what ever rate you lose at.

Okay all. I finally got back on the wagon, got the carbs out of my system and lost all the cravings!!! I forgot how great it feels! It has been a LONG 4 months, but I finally feel like I can keep this going to goal. I might change my overall goal to be the same as my halloween goal. We'll see how things go. I go out of town from Monday - Saturday. I need to be happy if I don't GAIN this week. I should be able to work out every day....if I make it a priority!
How's it going?

My goal have to be 10 lbs now because as of satuday I gain 2 lbs.

My goal is 8 lbs. Is the due date for the challenge Oct 31?
I am wondering if any of you would like to start a challenge.We are only one month away from October! OMG I can't even believe that! I was banded at the end of the month, but it is still coming up soon. Anyone interested in a Halloween Challenge? We could weigh in every Saturday Morning and I'll keep track and post it here.
Who is in? I really need to get on track and get the sweets out of my system.
If you are interested Weigh yourself. Let me know that you want your name added to the Challenge List. This will be an eight week challenge and so my goal will be 16 lbs.
Just to let the new "Smashing Pumkins" know. There should be a thread for October 2009 if you search for it but you are welcome to join us if you would like.

I was told the bigger you are you will lose weight more quickly in the begining. You should still call your doctor because I am concern about you consuming 300 calories. The losest carlies I was told to consume a day is no less than 1,200. I know some people on here that was almost 300 lbs and lost 100 lbs in 8 months. And they consume around 1,000 calories. Let me know how it goes. Leave me a vistor message. I love messages.

I love my band. I'm not going to lie its not easy. U have to be committed.

U have hit your plateu. U need to change up your workouts. I ordered p90x and it explains that your body get use to what u are doing in your workouts and you need to confuse it by changes your workouts. Google px90 and read up on it. Hope this helps.

Hi, I had my lapband oct 29, 2008. I live in delhi, la. My doctor is dr. merrian, from shreport la. I get my first fill Dec. 10, 2008. I didn't know there was a doctor in calhound that does fills.
I am from the monroe area and a nurse myself! I use Rita Zuber for my fills. She has a clinic in Calhoun Louisiana. I just LOVE her. She is the sweetest woman. I had my lapband in February in Dallas and she does my fills. I have since moved all of my records to her office and she is now my gp! Ms. Zuber also does the pre-op work ups at her office and refers you to doctor of your choice! she does have her reccomendations also1 She likes to use Dr. Cribbins in Dallas. Thats who is used and he is the nicest man you will ever meet! However if you have someone else in mind she will send your pre-op things to them. She also does the post op care and the Fills! SHe uses a flouro machine to look at your band and port. You can also watch while she is filling you and she gives you a picture to take if you want also! I have had no complaints with her at all. like she told me from the get go---this is not a miracle surgery.YOU have to do your part and work with it!!! That is so true! The only bad experience I have had is with the surgery centers guy Michael Stamper....he never returned my phone calls and i think he was somewhat misleading. With that being said he is not at all affiliated with Rita. He is employed by the surgery center! I highly reccomend her and she is also cheaper thatn anyone else around this area!!! -
i had my lapband the same day as you 1-0/29/08. I only lost 8 lbs. How did you lose 26. I have my first fill dec. 15. when is your first fill? congrats on losing weight!!!!

u need to eat more like the others say. Also u need to change your exercising routine so you can cause musle confusion. Your body is use to the same excersing you are doing. I watch a paid program call PX 90. You can google it and it explains that your body hits a plauteu and with there workouts it causes your body musle confusion. You have to change your workout routine. Also make you don't drink a lot of drinks and other juices with a lot of sugar in it.

I think thats a great idea. When u have your surgey, u are going to have to go on a liquid diet, then soft food diet. After you get your fills u may want to use baby food. Other than that u may want to stick to regular foods so you can get your nutrition.

I have my first fill Dec, 15, 2008. Right know I can't get rice and white bread. They feel like glue going down. However I am very excited about my first fill.

I did't weigh in Saturday because I knew it wasn't going to be good. I doubt it will be good this Saturday but I am still going to weigh in. Have u lost any more? I see you're at 168.9 Good job. Have you gotten your unfill yet? If you did, is things a little bit better with your eating?
