BJean, it wasn't me exercising 3 hours a day - I am lucky if I can get in an hour a day! I'm trying to do three days of cardio and two days of weights...

I saw my Dr. today and I get my second fill on Fri morning at 10AM,:clap2: I am very excited about that. My food does not last 3 -4 hours after I eat, I am hungry after 1 1/2 hours. So he said it was time and Fri. will be 6 weeks since the last one.

Later.

OK I'm back. No loss but no gain either. And on reflection, that is a miracle. We took 3 teenagers and a 9 year old to Washington D.C. and have had several birthday parties, 2 directors meetings in Okla. that I had to fly to and stay out of town several days at a time, incredible job stress, Thanksgiving, and guests for the past 2 weeks and I have not gained a pound. WoooooHoooooooooo!!! You guys have perked me right up! Thanks. AND...I am ready to start again and keep going down. Katt

Hi MOM,

Nothing to report here. No loss, but no gain either. Tomorrow is my third fill. I hope I feel restriction this time!

Tami or was it TrueBlue, who is doing so well and exercising 3 hours a day?

Not me! I just joined an exercise club, but haven't developed a habit, yet. As a matter of fact, I haven't been in over a week. Gotta get off the 'puter, and onto the treadmill!

Just wanted to check in for Monday weigh in. Luckily, I already lost the 4 pounds I gained in Mexico. I guess it was Water weight. ;) That being said, I didn't lose any weight either. So for the Christmas goal, it's a zero. ;) Tami, I hope you're feeling better. It is weird to get restriction so late. Late us know what happens. Happy Monday everyone!

Karey, I'm glad that water weight came back off so quickly!

I'll know today whether I'm still having trouble eating. I stuck with liquids the past two days. Unfortunately, they weren't necessarily the best liquids, though. I searched all around for a smoothie place yesterday for lunch but couldn't find one. So, I decided that a milkshake couldn't be all that bad. OMG, my advice...don't EVER get a Chick-fil-a chocolate milkshake. When I got home, I checked the website, and that sucker was over 700 calories! And it was orgasmic! I'll never get my Chick-fil-a milkshake virginity back again, so I'll have to rely on good old abstinence!

Hi all-

I haven't been on-line in a while...so I thought I should try and get back into the groove of things.

I went in for my first fill on the Monday the 27th..

I have the V.G. Band, and I got 4.8 cc's

I was happy, I wanted at least 4 cc's

We'll see how much restriction I feel in a week or two..

Wish me luck!

I was banded on 9/1/06...to date I have lost 25 lbs. My 2nd fill they over filled me. I had them draw .5cc out. It has been 3 weeks since they took it out and now I am trying to determine weather or not I should go back in and have them put maybe 1/2 that amount in? I do not feel that I am loosing the correct amount of weight each month. Any suggestions?

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
