  1. Ok I did bad the rest of the day as well. I went to mcdonalds and had the big mac wrap which was 320 calories. omg! It tasted better than a big mac. But I did exersice longer today 200 extra calories.
  2. I had my surgery on nov 23 and have 3cc in my bad. I had done great with my calories and exersice until last night. I don't even like coke, but for some reason I wanted one yesterday. I didn't drink it all at once a little hear and there but finished it within two hours. The pizza was very thin crust almost none with about 5 pepperonis. I had not had bread until last night and it went down fine. Had bout 5 pieces pizza. For supper I could not belive I ate the whole plate of cheezy cassrole. This morning the Hotdog and cassrole went down fine. About two weeks ago i got the stumack bug and had to Go to er so they could stop the vomiting, but I had already vomited for nine hours. they gave me three bags fluid. anyway I great restriction till bout two day after that. I will do better starting now.
  3. I got so tired of exersicing and the scale not moving so I ate everything yesterday and drank my first diet coke. I started off good having two eggs for breakfast but then for lunch made homemade pizza. I had alot of it then made chezzy hashbrown cassrole for supper and had a whole plate of that. This morning for breakfast had half plate of the cassrole and one hotdog. I have decided to get over it and do better before I gain. I just needed to let it out that I screwed up. It just makes me made that I have done great and no weight loss. I have not ate that much since before the surgery.
  4. I was eating the same amount of calories and have not lost a thing in four weeks. Finally uped my calories 1000-1300 and have lost a pound. I burn off 600 of those calories with the treadmill though. I am losing inches, guess cause muscle weighs more. Surely sometime soon the scale will move agian. Its been week since I lost this time. I am getting so discouraged! Hope it gets better for both of us.
  5. I wanted that size band but my dr said my stomach was to small so I have the smaller one. You guys arfe lucky!!!
  6. my first fill was 3cc i had to eat liquids for 48 hours. I felt resriction for two 1/2 weeks then got the stomach flu had to go to hospital. when you have the band its hard for stuff to come back up when you get a bug. you have to go to ER to get meds to stop it. Anyway I think it stretched the band or something ever since i have no resriction. I go for next fill next week and i'm going to ask the dr about it. Just wanted to warn ya bout the bug. i went to the hospital where i got my band and they rushed me straight back and gave me something to stop the vomit. hope your restriction last, can't wait till i get mine next week. How many calories are you eating?
  7. How many cc is your band?
  8. I was eating 700 calories and 60-70 protein and work out and my body went into starvation mode. I have since uped my calories to 1000-1200 AND HAVE LOST 2 POUNDS. everyone is different but I wish i had of raised my calories sooner so I could have lost more weight. Hope that helps
  9. What are some things you eat? Are you exersicing and how often. I can't seem to lose and I use the treadmill 3 1/2 miles everyday and have 1000-1200 calories everyday. any sugestions for me what am I doing wrong???
  10. GOOD JOB!!!!Sounds like you will need some new clotha soon.
  11. You are six days out, my dr had me on liquid for 2 weeks mushy 2 weeks then solids. Today I had 2 eggs, cheese stick which I only like one kind jalopeana and 14 light pringles. lunch 2 oz ham cheese stick 14 pringles dipped in ketchup. snack cheese 14 pringles. dinner grilled chicken cut up very small dipped in light ranch dressing, green Beans. 1040 calories and 65 Protein The cheese helps me get my protein. I'm very picky and it is quick. I usually have fresh carrots or broccli dipped in ranch instead of the chips but I was out.
  12. I'm in I would love to be down 30 pounds by Eater! My start weight as of Monday was 263, but I got up and lost 1 pound since I added more calories on Tuesday. Today 262 woooo hooo!!!! I'm on my way!!!!:w00t:
  13. Does anyone have a vomit like taste which makes you sick to your stomach? I had a grilled chicken yesterday for lunch went down fine chewed it great, but this taste keeps coming back to me. What is it and why?????
  14. How many cc did you have before the unfill?
  15. Congrats on the weight loss!! Have fun on the cruise you earned it, just make healthy food choices. The Tattoo LOL! I think everyone needs something to look forward to.
  16. Thanks so much you guys for your support I raised my calories and changed the food I was eating and lost a pound just since Tuesday! I can't believe I was eating 5-800 and starving myself I guess I have 1000- 1200 as of today. I thought I was only suppost to eat 1/2 cup of food each meal, but I was wrong. This is week nine for me and I could have lost so much more had I listened before this week. Guess you have to learn from your mistakes. woooo hooooo!!!!!!:thumbup:
  17. I do not like the cheese thats individual wrapped at all, but someone told me about the pepperjack. I got some today and it was great, my new snack. I have also been given advice about raising my calories so I guess we will have to wait till next Tuesday and see if the scales move. My calories went from 600 to 1200 and I have added 30 min extra of treadmill. So have you guys banded in November lost alot of inches? I am starving and i still have two in half weeks till next fill.Does fills olny keep you tight for about two weeks? Cause I have 4 cc in 10 band and my band was tight two weeks ago.
  18. I'm one who spells it that away and i FIND IT CRAZy that you took the time to point out that it was spelled wrong. You better not read any of mine cause I am not good at spelling or punctuation. I spell it how it sounds and don't care. I am on hear for the support of people in the same boat as me. not to feel worse about myself with you telling me how to spell. i'm sure i will never spell that word wrong agian though.
  19. I have decided my weightloss has stopped because of to low calorie intake. staring today I will increase my calories to 1000 and walk an extra 30 minutes each day. I'm going to have my husband hide the scales so I can only weigh once week. I feel i get disgouraged if the scales don't move like I want. Today I decided to make deviled eggs to snack on for my protein. I have not been getting in 60 grams a day. i DON'T LIKE COTTAGE CHEESE or stringe cheese I do like peanuts but they are high in calories. What do some of you fix for snack low in calories but high in protein. I'm getting tired of same old food.
  20. My calories have been between 750-900 and I burn 400 each day with the treadmill. If I take in more calories I gain so thats why I'm confussed. I realize I need more calories but if I gain what do I need to do? thanks for your advice.
  21. I have lost 26 pounds since Nove 23, but I lost 20 the first two weeks after surgery. I feel this is going very slow, but I am loosing inches. The stomach bug was so painfull, they should warn you about what happens.I thought I was going to die finally went to ER, but the worst was already over. Not sure why but Before I caught the bug I stayed full all day long, today I am starving. But still controling my hunger on my own. How much have you lost since surgery? I have 4cc in my band, how much did you get first and 2nd fill?
  22. I got sick started throwing up friday night was taken to the hospital. They give me three bags of fluid and as of this morning i'm up on the scale 3 pounds. I'm really starting to not like this band. I have always been able to loose weight at the snap of a finger, but i can't keep it off. With the band I can't even loose. For breakfast I had 2 eggs and 14 light pringles. snack 1/2 cup peanuts. Lunch 1/2 cup of homemade potato soup and I will have 1/2 cup of potato soup for supper.snack sugarfree popsicole. I walked on treadmill for 30 min burned 201 calories and tonight will walk the same. I had nothing to eat on Saturday cause I was so sick Sunday has two cups potato soup. I realize the fluid they give me will make me gain but what if it don't go away. Why does the band have to be so hard to figure out.
