    Take Your Measurements

    Nean4488 replied to Brigette's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Measurements look great! I wish I could get my brain to "believe" in measurements. HAHA In my head the only thing that makes me happy is when the scale is moving!

    High protein cereal?!?

    Nean4488 replied to lovinlife4eva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I eat most my carbs in the AM. I also have golean cereal! Its not the best stuff but its alright. Your breakfast should consist of carbs and healthy fats. I also dont really live off a "low carb diet" because I dont think its very healthy, but I try to watch my carbs to make sure I am not over doing them.
  3. Nean4488
    your drinking on your pre-op diet and smoking? im pretty sure thats not ok at all.
  4. Nean4488
    You should be able to drink Water normally 3 weeks post-op! I really dont know much about running and need the carbs for energy, hopefully someone will be able to help you with that question. You should be fine with the water though :-) Thats awesome that you can run that much already!

    drinking while eating

    Nean4488 replied to trixj's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    This is one rule I do break. I try not to but its way to hard for me! It doesnt seem to effect me any differently with how long I stay hungry for.
  6. Nean4488
    Well I will be doing my waiting in the gym then :-)
  7. Nean4488
    I sure cant wait! lol
  8. Nean4488
    You dont need to count calories or journal the rest your life. But i think it helps during the start of your weight loss or if your stuck with the weight loss. Just some friendly advice after looking at your band date and weight loss so far. GOOD LUCK!
  9. Nean4488
    Thanks! The scale is stuck and it wont move out of the 270s ! I dont ever remember seeing 260s! 3 more pounds!
  10. Nean4488
    I wish it was this easy for me :-( I have to journal everything and work out crazy to even lose a little bit of weight :-(

    Hey darling!

    How do you know you might have a leak? I hope you dont and it is all still there! I think you are doing great with your weight loss and you should be so proud! I see that you do zumba, I always want to try it but I am so shy and I will feel like everyone is watching me. I am hoping maybe in another 25-30 pounds that I will work up the nerve to start doing some classes at the gym, I think it will mix things up and add to my weight loss.

     

    My weight loss is also pretty slow. I work so so so hard for the weight that I lose. I am pretty jealous at people that are upset 5 months into having the band and saying they lost all this weight without working out. I bust my butt to lose the weight and my eating has to be ON POINT. I am not one of those people that can eat a little bite of icecream.

     

    Banding is def a diet to me I am just hoping I dont give up because of frustration. I think the band keeps me on track but then me on my own!

    255!!!!! I am sooooo jealous!!!! lol I am in a rush right now but I will check in again tomorrow and write more! Talk to you soon.

  13. Nean4488
    GREAT JOB!!! I couldnt be more jealous. haha

    Fills 8 days apart?

    Nean4488 replied to TXSassyGal's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Im allowed to get fills whenever I need them. I had my 2nd fill just under 2 weeks apart from each other.
  15. Nean4488
    Oh I think this is def a diet! You said you lost 50 pounds eating normal.. you should feel good about that. Im almost at the 50 pounds mark and I have busted my butt to get where I am. I eat right all the time and I work out 5 or 6 times a week for at least an hour. The weight is coming off slow, but its going at least. But I work so hard for those two pounds a week if im lucky! I would agree this is for sure a diet to me but on this diet I stay full and thats the only difference that I noticed.

    Shoulder pain...

    Nean4488 replied to Nippz_7919's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I am a month and a half out and still get shoulder pain. Its not from the gas, its something else, my doctor explained it to me, but I couldnt tell you what! haha its something you just have to live with.
  17. Nean4488
    I try not to drink with my meals but I usually end up doing it anyways. I stay full for the same amount of time either way.
  18. Nean4488
    I love coffee and im allowed to have it... good luck without it :-) Im having problems with the no pop... everytime I see it i just want to drink soooo much of it but couldnt!

    Hernia and Banded...Questions

    Nean4488 replied to bandedsheri's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    This is normal... take deep breathes it will get better!
  20. Nean4488

    Sandra, I was reading about how you think you have slow metoblism. I know this is totally agaisnt doctors orders but in order to boost it you need to be eating every 3 hours... I eat every 2-3 hours small meals.

    Is my nutritionst keeping me fat

    Nean4488 replied to rosstheboss's topic in The Guys’ Room

    I think you should try out what she has to say. I eat between 1000-1200 cals a day. I aim for 1500 but its hard. My trainer told my I am eating for someone half my size and that my body is using my muscle because I am not eating enough food. He told me I need to eat more! Its hard with the band because I get full pretty quickly. I am usually eating every 2-3 hours even though I am not hungry but it is boosting my metabolism. Try it for a couple weeks and see if you get the results you are looking for. Does your trainer take your body fat? Is it lowering? My stayed the same but I was losing weight, this is when I got the stern talking to about eating more! Good luck!

    how far did i set myself back?

    Nean4488 replied to trishfish's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums

    You should be fine! I think its good to treat your self every once in awhile. Last week I ate some fast food for the first time in MONTHS! I lost 5 pounds this week... one little thing wont hurt you, youll be fine!

    SMALL bites.... ?

    Nean4488 replied to sixtythreenova's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I dont pay attention to the size of my bites. Granted I dont stuff food in my mouth in huge huge bites like I use to but no i def dont cut my stuff as small as an eraser.. that sounds nuts!!! You might just not be able to handle eggs that way, every band is different!

    I eat the 100 cal pack popcorn all the time... I was never told no popcorn.
  25. Nean4488
    I have a hard time not drinking with meals. During breakfast and lunch I dont drink but with dinner I have to. I dont drink enough fluids, Im lucky if I get one bottle of Water down a day. Its just hard for me, normal water is ick and if i put crystal light in there everytime I feel like my teeth are going to fall off!
