Hang in there Diddi, I promise, it will be ok even if you do gain some back. Once you get your fill/fills the band will work for you. Please don't give up hope. I am curious, where are you from? I didn't see it listed in your profile. I love to see representation of us all over the world. I work in the international department of my company and literally talk/email all over the world.

:hug:

Hi, Diddi! I know this sounds strange, but you might try taking a big bite of something you REALLY REALLY want, chew it up, and then spit it out. This has helped some people get past the worst of their cravings. Maybe it can help you, too?

thanks on support

Im comming from Croatia, state near Italy, in Europe. This operation is new in my country and perform for only 1 or 2 years in our capital city Zagreb by doctor Bešlin.

Every single day im on this forum and i read (and translate unknown words) everething that interessed me (specially "February bandsters") but its very hard to me anything to wrote because im never learng english in my scool and everething i know i learned myself by translation.

and even i dont write anything want you to all kow that I'll be around reading your post's.

Diddi you are doing a great job translating.

And people can I just say holy friggin restriction??? I got my 4th fill yesterday to a total of 2.0cc (1 was at 1.5 before that). Now I really know what restriction feels like. I am so darn full. I had a yogurt for Breakfast and could only finish 3/4 of it. lunch and dinner were probably a little more than 1/2 cup of food and I was stuffed after both of them.

Babygirl! You're on your FOURTH fill??? WOW!! I'm still on my first! I got 1cc on my first fill, and my second isn't until May 10. Which is really ok with me, because I've resumed losing after my first fill. I had stalled for a couple of weeks... The April challenge has helped, too, even though I haven't been very good about posting on that thread... :confused:

Yeah I was not feeling any restriction so I just kept making appointments. My doctor is very good about accomodating his patients needs and believe me I needed those fills!

Diddi,

I think it is amazing that you are teaching yourself english. understand though that some of what we write is "slang" . Slang means they aren't real words but a shortcut for real words. Like "wanna" is really "want to". Don't be discouraged. I , too, have not lost anything in like 2 -3 weeks. I will see my doctor this week, so hopefully I will have my first fill. But you have already lost some great weight. take care and hope to "see" you soon.

I think you can set your computer to write for you in English. Someonr that is computer smart can tell you where to set the language, I believe incomming or out going.

Thanks, your posts mean a lot too me.

Last week i had 116 kg, and today (after overeating for "Easter weekend") i have 117 kg. :lol::(

I made a decison - no more overeating, no more (not a little bit) of ham, cakes, chocollate, juces etc.

Every day must work out for a least 30 minutes and eat less then 800 kcal daily.

:rofl:

:rofl:

While I agree with the exercise regime; trying to eat less than 800 kcal a day is too extreme. In the long term it's not sustainable and will lead to the eating you're trying to avoid. Try to aim for 1000 kcal; you'll still lose weight. I eat between 900 - 1200 kcal a day and I am losing well despite being unable to exercise yet. I lost 4.5lbs last week and 3lbs so far this week.

Hope all goes well and don't beat yourself up about the slip!

I am so glad for you. I am hoping I experience that when I have my second fill next week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
