Wow i have not been on here since my surgery.. It's been a whole year and I am down only 50lbs... But its all my fault.. . I haven't really been following protocol... I do go to the gym but not as often as i should.. I eat much less now and i am basically not able to eat all bad foods.. lol like fried foods, bread, i have trouble with alot of meat...even fish! but chicken is ok and sometimes beef, but pork is a no no and so is steak... One day i had ate a piece of steak, and it got stuck and i could not eat for the rest of the day... I could not even drink water, everything just came back up. .. That day i lost 5lbs... lol Not Kidding.. so far I have only had 2 fills but i am going to make an appointment soon for another one cuz my weight loss has slowed terrible am im actually gaining my weight be now.... but I can't wait to get out of the 200's I feel that if i keep on the right track i will be 199 by christmas... Well that's all for right now.. Have a nice night everyone!!!

Im back at school and the internet sucks this semester... anyway... im at a stand still with my weight loss but this week im going to up my gym usage... 15 lbs down since the start of the process, just 9-10lbs down from surgery... it goes up and down everyday.. its kinda frustrating but i know i am not doing and eating everything i should... i mean i don't eat that bad, its still healthy food, its not like im downing burgers and fries or greasy foods, its just hard for my to break the habit of not drinking with food, like sometimes i forget that im not supposed to do it but i do practice everyday to remind myself not to get a drink... its just a hard habit to break, when you been doing it your whole entire life... plus i can eat more than i expected but i know once i get the one fill that my doctor is talking bout at our first fill visit everything is going to change... portion size and certain foods.... i have had a roll, but i am still kinda scared to try pasta or rice...

I been gone for a minute, but im back now, Im finally in the Pureed stage.. so far i have had tuna fish, chili and a hot dog.. This past weekend i got so busy and i wasn't really hungry i forgot to eat.. but today i Kinda made up for it... for lunch today i had tuna fish, and cucumbers in italian dressing... it was so good, but i messed up i didn't wait the full thirty minutes to drink my water... i was just extra thirsty today, serious i have had like 6 bottles of water and i am still thirsty at the hour.... Im back at school now so my eating schedule is alittle out of wack since on Mon, Wed and Fri, i have three classes during my lunch hours and i usually go to the gym after class but tomorrow ima try something new.. I will go to my class then after my 1pm class i will eat lunch then go to the gym... that should work out better... well im getting tired and its kinda late as i write this... Good Night!:smile:

i have a question. since alot of people can't eat bread, has anyone tried wraps?... i not much of a bread eater but i do love a tuna fish wrap.

Yeah my paper has in bold letters "no straws". lol... i have been away for a couple days and i am hating my scale.. It keeps saying im losing weight but i feel the same and look the same and it seems like my tummy is getting bigger... i believe i still have gas, i still have pain on my left side especially when i am sleepin on that side its hard to roll over after i have slept or layed on it for a while. Is anyone experiencing the same thing? OMG i miss my pickles so much. i can taste it in my mouth. lol

Today is not a good day... is it normal to wake up not in pain pain just a lil weak in pain... its every morning since surgery than by the time i eat i am fine... could it be hunger pains? today i just don't feel well tho... i feel like crying.. just a little sad that's all, not sure why tho.... it could be because im spoiled and my mom just came in with crabs and changed the channel i was watching to some dumb a$$ talk show... but i guess i can't have everything my way.. but its just not fair, im the one in pain.. its like my family don't care... I had to go to walmart the day after my surgery to get my medicine, in pain and all. went home to a house full with 6 screaming kids who wasn't even supposed to be there... im just so frustrated right now and the only thing i can do is cry...

I went in at 10am too. But I was scheduled to stay overnight tho. I wasn't out of surgery til about 1130. I only have 4 incisions. I will post some before and after once I'm feeling a lil better.

Well I'm in bandland now everyone. Just got home today from the hospital was banded yesterday. I wanted to stay an extra day but they wouldn't let me :-(.

I'm at the hospital now. Woke up with a little head cold. Hope they will still do it. I actually don't have much to say.... well good luck to me and speedy recovery I hope.

Hello everyone... Well i have 12 hours til i leave this house and be at he hospital waiting to go under... i can't wait!!!! The nerves are now starting to show up, because it seems like time is going by so fast when usually it will go by so slow.... whoo my heart is racing now... wish me luck everyone, i hope i have a smooth surgery... And good luck to all the others getting banding this week... Its too bad that i wont be able to attend my uncles funeral tomorrow, but he knows my heart will be with him while i am under.

:smile2:Now i am 23 hours away from surgery.... This liquid diet thing is not bad at all i haven't even really been hungry.. i didnt even really eat anything today.. Like i had my water, i had one container of SF jello, about 8 ounces of chicken broth with one scoop of Unjury unflavored protein. and i had 1 SF popsicle and one of m 8oz optifast shake for dinner.. and its 1am and i am not even hungry, usually by now if i had regular food i would be starving.. i just really hope to get all my calories and protein in after surgery because i don't think im getting much in right now... i hope i still continue to lose more weight before my surgery.... oh did i tell ya'll? i lost my 2% weight requirement for surgery!!!! YAY!!! Thank the lord!:thumbup: My nutritionist think that by a year time i should have lost more than 100lbs.. she said i have be doing so good with my food diary and my food choices, like i told her, i know how to diet, its just sticking to the diet that is the challenge.. but im getting sleepy my Bandits friends good night all and God Bless!!!
