tamra.

hey all sitting at 225.5 this am, so disappointed, thats up 4.5 since I saw Baggs....I have been eating good, so I see now I need to work out. Doing my Tony Little Gazelle tonight and will continue to eat well through out this week and weekend and come Monday if I am not back at 221 I will need to figure something out!

Morning All, Tina ~ I do have restriction. Not "ALOT" but enough. I got a french fry stuck yesterday (chee Tamra and you wonder why your up today? LOL). I was going to do liquids yesterday and today but I got to darn hungry, and stressed out. Unemployment is now trying to tell me they will NOT pay me while in school and I will have to drop my class to continue getting paid. What the hell? So I am fighting a battle, and I got so stressed I ate. Today I am going to do water water water, measure my food, and do all proteins, and see if I am down tomorrow, and if so, continue that process.

Morning all I AM BACK UP TO 225.5 THIS AM!? wtf!? I don't understand.....well maybe I do, I didn't eat that well this weekend. I am back on liquids today and tomorrow, going to jump start myself again like usual...I have to get back undet the 220 like I did Friday!!! it was such a good feeling!! I am also waiting on TOM and I was alil backed up this weekend too...tmi...LOL Have a good day everyone, off to school

ouch Mo, I dunno cause Ive never had really good restriction, I have a feeling my next fill July 23 will do it, but for now who knows - I hope someone can give you some advice so you dont have to get an unfill!

Morning all, Congrats on the new car Ash! That's exciting. Tina I think I do have restriction. I get full after a few bites, and bread deffently sticks!! No more of that! And after 1 day of eating, I am up 5 POUNDS, back at 223? What the heck? I guess my choices were not to smart or something?? I haven't gone potty yet tho (TMI) so that could just be my food sitting but sheesh!! my period is due too, I dunno!! we will see, I may have to go back to liquids...I got kinda addicted to them, because the scale was moving...lord I would be the one who ends up with an eating disorder. LOL.

Just posted a updated pic btw!

Morning all, Congrats on your fill Mo!! awesome!! We both have 6 cc's now :thumbup: Can't wait to eat today (ending my 48 hr liquids) but I am scared to see myself gain lol. Tina ~ I always think of what ifs LOL so In my mind he didn't hit the port lol, but I am bruised, I am gonna have to tease him next time for sure!! Well, as of today I am official OUT OF THE 220'S!!!!!!!!!!!! My scale said 219.5 this am (and Kaisers is usually 1 lb less but I will go with mine). I honestly cannot remember when I weighed 219. I don't even wanna eat food I wanna just stay on liquids LOL but I need something to see if I am tight or not! For Baggs wanting me at 216 by July 23 I apparently will have no issue there....I hope! :smilielol5:

Congrads on the loss Pam!!!!!

Okay so I had a random thought Baggs had a hard time hiting my port, and he said it took several times....what if he never got it and the fluid really just went randomly in my body? LOL

LOL yes I was 233 last week. How did I do it? I liquid dieted from Monday to yesterday LOL and drank TONS OF WATER. I also snacked on some cheese the day before, and had some hot and sour soup around Tuesday so I didn't die, but let me tell you I am STARVING TODAY!!!!!! I cannot wait to eat Saturday. I am not sure if I have restriction yet since I haven't ate anything but I did get full off my bottle of water and 3 bites of jello last night thats a good sign yea? This morning the scale said 220.3 I cracked up!!!!! I havent seen my scale in the lows like this in YEARS!! omg!! I just wonder if Ill gain starting tomorrow when I stop starving myself..lol...:thumbup: Hope everyone has a wonderful Friday!! I love having the day off from school and I took it off yesterday too with a Dr note from Baggs :scared2:

Hello everyoneeeee!!! :thumbup: Real quick, I was down to 221.9 on Kaisers scale YAY!!!!! ANDDDDDD Dr. Baggs added 1 cc to my band! hehehe! I now have 6 ccs. He wants me to be down 5 more lbs by my next appt (July 23) and he will give me another fill!! I am soooo happy!! and of course I walk in chewing gum. As he goes to grab the assistant to do my fill he says btw you know you shouldnt be chewing that? with a huge smile. LOL I said OMG I CANNOT BELIEVE I DID THAT!!!! =) Side note, he kept "slipping" at my port whatever that means, but I am kinda bruised and I felt him hit it this time!! it was a weirddddd feeling, but I am so happy I dont care!! Broth here I come!!!

Morning all, I have to go back and read everything I am outta the loop, been super busy with school!! Today is my Dr appt with Baggs at 1030. I have been liquid dieting since Monday and I am down to 222.9....lowest since being banded!! lord please let Kaisers scale match!!! or be lower, that would be nice.... LOL hope all is well!!!!! =)

Hi all OMG so I have found that no school on Fridays = EATING!!!! I have snacked alot today. Also, I have an eye/ear/sinus infection and on meds...urgh My cat has been in and out of the vet today, something is stuck in his throat and cannot eat =( They want $360 and I don't have it right now, so I am trying to figure out what the heck to do. Hope you all have a better day/weekend then I am!!! :frown:

Pat I have missed you!!!!

Morning all, Pam!! How much have you lost? I notice your ticker says 208! down to 230 today. sheesh finally. I got some weight watcher meals I am going to eat for lunch, seems good to try. we shall see. getting my butt kicked by a sinus infection/ear infection so not doing to good this week =( (health wise, food ok)

Darn...only a .5 loss this am...oh well..I am sick so I ate some beans my mom made last night that were prob SUPER fattening. Have a good day everyone!

10 days till my appt. Goal is 1 lb loss a day, we will see tomorrow if I achieved my first

Tina ~ Congrads on the fill thats wonderful! Moving right along! As for me having restriction I must admit I have been taking some "15 day cleanse" pills, and weirdly enough they make me tight, and I haven't been getting down my normal foods. Riley thanks for the tips, I have cut out the rice as I had an episode the other night after a big bowl of rice at the sushi place; I was in so much pain I think the rice had blocked my pouch that night. I will never eat it again.

Hello all, So I have been outta the loop lately, with school being in the day I am never online. The appt. with Dr Baggs didn't happen, I had to post pone for school again. I called and Bev happened to have an available appt. on June 17th, so that's my day. I have been eating pretty bad. I have a new group of friends and no one knows I have the band. I eat Sushi, coffee, whatever they go too I can never say no. It's been hard. They always tease me for getting decaf coffees, and ask me why and I just reply "ah my Dr told me too" Today I had my first PB expierence. That was NOT CUTE. I was eating a waffle at Hometown Buffet with my bf and it got stuck, I had horrible pains. I told him dude I can't get it unstuck, I need to go to the bathroom BRB. I get in there, and all of a sudden it happens. It was so gross, I texted Nicollie right after and said "ummm I think I just PBed??" LOL. Later this afternoon out of NOWHERE I got sick! I have a pounding headache, ear ache, my throat is sore and im sick to my stomach. I can't win. Scale was 233 today. Thats ok, I expected it. I found out I will be in a wedding exactly one year from this week, so I really want to be at my goal of 165 there, looking like a cute bridesmaid hehe! Soooo back on track tomorrow, I hope I don't stay sick to long. Hope you are all doing well. Tina, did you do ok? more fills?

Morning everyone!! Tina my appt. is @ 3:45, U will probably be long gone by the time I get there! Scale is up to 231. No comment.
