November 09 Knockouts! Check in here POST surgery! :)
Odjii replied to PrincipalsOffice's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Just something I wanted to share with you guys. I'm close to my 1 year mark which will be November 18th. I went to a local grocery store tonight after not seeing a scale in some time. To my amazement I have lost 75 lb (+/- 3 lb for accuracy). I'm a male, 21yo with my HW at 350, now I'm 275. I go to my doctor on the 25th of November I would have hopefully lost another 15lb by then. I wish I could have lost more sooner and I constantly beat up on myself for it. I think I need to start giving myself more credit :smile2: I think we all do. -

Glad everyone is doing good, I've been a bit off the ball lately but after visiting with my surgeon I'm now motivated to do things right! I'm so glad everyone has lost so much so soon. -
My weightloss during the holidays were very slow! hahaha but once I started back at school I was fine again. I tend to be much more busy when I'm in school and that keeps me from snacking too much.

Pre-New Year's Resolution...No Holiday Weight!
Odjii replied to MrRiceGuy's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
losing weight over the holidays if very hard! I kept in mind that I need to lose weight but over winter break I only lost a whopping 3-4 pounds! I am disappointed but I'm not going to let that hold me back. Lets set a longer goal for 50lb before summer. -

I just got my second fill today. I'm kinda bummed I only lost 4 pounds in the past 3 weeks but my surgeon assured me that what is not in pounds most likely is in inches. To add to my frustration my surgeon knows that I work out everyday because he happens to go to my gym and when he sees me he smiles and says keep it up. I'm staying active, I do 30-45 min cardiovascular workout at the gym or home every day. I just want to be under 300 already, I feel like I'm working hard enough. Any tips on what else I should be doing. I eat a lot of protein throughout the day and barely no carbohydrates. I also drink a lot of low calorie to no calorie fluids throughout the day. My surgeon said just keep doing what I'm doing but I need more advice. I hate to pull this one out but aren't the guys supposed to have an easier time than the women at losing weight :smile2: -

I had my first fill yesterday. The PA had to do some probing of the needle to find the port as i'm still quite swollen - but no pain thankfully. The surgeon ended up having to be called in and to no surprise he got it on the first try lol. Well, my first fill experience wasn't all that pleasant and I woke up this morning around 7 with a bit of constipation. I don't think there is a correlation but I'm still going to call in later. I'm down 25 lb. My mom and dad noticed but I still haven't. It's hard to imagine I weigh less than I did 1yr 1/2 ago already.
