  1. Got a question. I know that the pouch is supposed to hold around 1/2 of food or like 4ozs or so. There seems to be some times that I am able to eat more like a cup or so before getting full. Is this normal? Or should I be eating a 1/2 cup no matter what. I don't want to stretch my pouch out. I am losing weight but just a little at a time. My job does not allow me to always eat snacks during the day. Would appreciate any help.
  2. I want 20 by the end of May so lets say 12 for this challenge.
  3. Got in 73 miles for the month.
  4. Ok didn't meet last month's goal, time to start again. Keeping it the same at 70. Good luck everyone. And Happy New Year.
  5. I'm in and my goal is 70.
  6. Ready for November and to get the weight off.
  7. Total October miles---60. Goal miles--------50.
  8. I just got my second fill Monday. Now I feel that I can't eat as much and feeling fuller longer. However, when mealtime comes around I am still feeling like I am full, and not really desiring to eat, but my stomach is growling. Does anyone else have this? What do you do, do you go ahead and eat cause you should, wait until you feel more hungry? What? The couple of times I have eaten, its like I've eaten too much, but I don't want to wait and eat late at night.
  9. The preop liquid diet really does help with the fatty liver. I too had been told that I had a fatty liver. I did the liquids for like a month. When I had my surgery, I was told that my liver was normal size and caused no problems with my surgery. Just stick with the liquids and good luck.
  10. Getting in the swing of things. 22 miles this week for a total of 37 miles so far. Everyone keep up the good work.
  11. Welcome and hope that you find lots of information from this site. I have. Don't worry about others weight loss, just keep you eye on your goal. I know I get flustrated with everyone at work constantly asking me how much I have lost, especially when it seems that the weight is just not coming off. Just keep up good work and you will get there.
  12. 15 miles down. Need to pick up pace and keep going. Great work so far everyone.:thumbup:
  13. I have the WII fit and I use it some. I don't know that I would recommend it for a whole family. To be able to use it on screen with everyone, you would need extra foot boards. They can do it without those if you wanted. There is another exercise one that uses the controllers that I wished I would have gotten instead of the fit.
  14. Count me in. Since just cleared by surgeon to start my exercising this will be great. Will shoot for 50 miles.
