I Have Restriction!

I'm so excited, I'm hoping it last! The doc filled me up to 3.8cc's and this morning I'm drinking liquid calories (a no - no) but I didn't want to PB, so I thought I would take it slow today. Three drinks of this frozen coffee drink and I'm full. I'ts taken me over 45 min and I'm still only 1/2 way done with the drink. Man, I hope this fill works!

Audree, wonderful news. You are an inspiration!! And I've toyed around with getting the quickslim since you first mentioned it...but the loss was coming without it. But I've been on this plateau for a couple of months now and would like to get a boost!! Maybe its time to order some.

Hello all...I am still dealing with this "complication", although now the doctor thinks it's all because of me. Just a recap, my port came up from the muscle in April. I had it reattached on 8/27, but experience the same sort of discomfort every so often, particularly after working out. It feels like a side cramp, but I know it is my port. I have an extremely rigorous workout routine, including intensive training sessions and spin classes. I am going for a CT scan this week just to assure that the port is still in place. I am arguing with my doctor, telling him that my workout regimen is a nonnegotiable because I am so close to pre Tummy Tuck goal lol. Regardless, I am still so happy with my decision.

This is my before and after picture...the "after" picture isn't really indicative because I have lost weight since then, and this is before my workouts started.

I am down 69 lbs, with a goal of 11 more by Thanksgiving so I can start planning my plastic surgery. I broke the threshold from "obese" to "overweight" lol. I am 171 lbs. My long term goal is 145-150. I can't complain.

Glad to see that everyone else is doing well. Such a good feeling for all of us, and it hasn't even been a year yet. Nice.

Hi Jessizzle, congrats on getting your date. You are getting done 2 days before me. All the best. By the way I think you might find a few more January 08 people answer you if you also post on this thread January 08 Bandsters .

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
