Gone for Good Club - July 2006



Recommended Posts

Telly~ My Dr. would not be happy if I was eating a full chicken breast and a bag of salad. My meal is 1 cup. No more, no less... And if you are hungry all the time, getting a fill will help. I do realize that Telly exercises like crazy, but also you wouldn't have to fight all the temptations with a fill. I still stand strong saying that you should get one for best results.

Do what you feel is right tho!!! Keep it up!

lins~you are too pretty!!!

Thanks Heather!

Telly, I am probably just jealous because you are about to slide by me in weight...and I am unfilled. Go get a fill. I SUPPORT YOU no matter what.

Head hunger is the WORST! Is it emotional eating?

Can add me to the "I need a fill list". -1 this week but have been teetering b/w 190-192 for a couple of weeks now and have noticed my appetite has gotten intense. Need more food to fill me up. It has been over 2mos since my last fill and I guess since I have lost 20 lbs my band is looser. Scheduled my 3rd fill for 07/24 so until then I will try not to gain....BTW Telly that ginger dressing sounds FABULOUS right now!!! :hungry:

Lins.. I don't really know what it is but my biggest guess is that I've bumped up my workouts to ridiculousness and I'm hungry all day.

Iuliz... It's damn good. You can get it at any Publix, Winn-Dixie, Kroegers.. any major grocery store. It's brownish looking.. tan maybe and boy is it god sent:)

C 268.5 (-11.5 lbs total, -1.5 this week)

Telly, my vote is for a fill. Right now you are losing weight, just fine, but... it seems like you have to struggle with your hunger all the time, not head hunger, but real physical hunger, with proper restriction you won't have that hanging over you all the time. Right now you are essentially losing your weight without the band, you have no restriction, it's not the band that is helping you with the weight loss it's your diet and exercise program, and that's great! But, again, but, why not make use of the tool you paid for and underwent surgery for? if you get proper restriction it is going to make it that much easier for you. If it were me I would go for a fill, creep up on it if you want to not risk being over-filled, but why not add that extra tool to your arsenal, and make it easier on yourself and hopefully more enjoyable still.

That's pretty much what I've been telling her as well. :)

I'm down two more pounds this morning. So now I am thinking about giving it two weeks, try getting in more Water and hit the gym more before i get the fill. I can't believe I'm getting so close to onederland and hitting my -100 mark.

Telly, if you feel like you should get the fill, do it. I also waited months before my first one and I got it when the weight was noticibly starting to slow up and it gave me a huge boost.

Lins, I LOVE that dress! You are looking great!

I have a high school friends wedding at the end of the month and will see people who havent seen me since my highest 303. I'm excited to show up in my "little" black dress.

Living back in my hometown I have already sen some old friends at parties and t feels nice having all the guys who were just friends in high school telling me I was looking so great:biggrin1:

It's all good. *hugs Paul*

We just have a lot of members who would be offended. I'm trying to watch out for them.

Paul, you need to get off the computer and get some from your wife instead of slobbering over every word that's said by these friends who are in this club to focus on weight loss and band support.

I don't mean to offend, but I'm just bummed as hell to see our club turn into a tease fest.

I concur. :straight

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
