Mom, have I been put on restriction?? I'm no longer on the list!

Tami (down 2 this week)

For the life of me I keep losing you! For some reason you disapeared on me. If you have your weekly weight loss please send it to me again or I can start with your total. I'm sorry. Don't know what happened.

Ok I just checked and your are on my list but just your total. So I'm not sure what happened.

:peep: MOM, sorry for the confusion. I started at 222 pounds on October the 8th/9th. Week #1 after that was 220 (-2), week#2 was 218 (-2), week #3 was 217.5 (-0.5), week #4 was 218 (+0.5), and Monday, start of week #5 was 213 (-5.) Total weight lost since challenge started is 9lbs. Best of all, I had a NSV today...I sat in a lawn chair and didn't walk off with it stuck to my hiney when I got up. I stood up and it stayed on the ground! Silly how these things mean so much. :biggrin1:

Hello all, tomorrow is my first fill. That is if the doc will do it. someone told me that the doc doesn't fill if the patient is losing, considering hunger and a few other things. so who knows. anyone having trouble with dehydration. I am and I now have a bladder infection. I just don't seems to remember to drink. I think I need to tell my students to remind me.

Mom. -3 for this week. thanks.

hi all, today I went in for my first fill... I didn't get it, they said since I have been loosing weight I don't need the band as a tool yet. I really am glad after hearing all the stuff that can happen but I am sure I will need it someday.. I go back in 4 weeks. Interesting don't you think. by the way I fixed my ticker thing and this program went back and put it on those blank replies that I did last night trying to figure it out. I bet if I erased my signature the old ones would erase too... weird.

I have a hard time drinking regular Water, blah, so I drink flavored water. My favorite is Powerade Option, it has 40 calories for 32 ounces, and comes in a few different flavors. I like grape the best, also strawberry. I take 2 to work everyday and get 64 ounces of water in by 3:30 anything after is a bonus. Some may think it's a waste of calories but I'm glad to get all my water in and my doc says it's fine. Also crystal light has some good flavors too with less calories.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
