Recommended Posts

Is there any one out in Labband doing any thing?

( Here is mine ) Walking into this new years @ 219 pounds. The last three months gained over 20 pounds because of Back pain lazyness Anty Depressents & Pain killers. Lots of candy and liquids calories (SUCH AS Cappuccino, S)

I,HAVE QUIT THE DEPRESSENTS ALREADY! Im going to talk with a counselor , to talk about my feeling rather then trying to swallow them.

As for the pain killers Im going to cut back right away. Try to start walking more and some kind of Core exercise after I see my Doctor to help streghen my back. Instead of a crutch to mask the pain and hopefully learn to deal with it. Like a Chronic pain management rehabilitation program.

The candy I can give or take, but the CAPPUCCINO I feel like that one is going to be tuff I hooked like a smoker to that nasty liquid empty Suger!

well that is my plan also to drop back to 190 in 3 months and maintain my weight there for the rest or the year.

WHAT IS YOURS? and I will take any Challenges or be a coach if needed!JOHN:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

Hi guys, happy New Year to the both of you. One of my resolutions is to exercise at least 3 day's a week, I start out so good then I falter. I don't understand because I really do feel better when I exercise, it makes no sense to me, I guess it's just being lazy. I want to continue losing the weight and learn to live life alittle.

Well, I have decided with the help of a new prescription, to quit smoking. I absolutely hate everything about it. The smell, the taste, nasty ashtrays and the worst thing, my son sees and smells it. I offically started my meds yesterday and by day 8, I am supposed to completely put them down. I am way excited but know I face an uphill battle! Wish me luck!

Happy New Year's to you, JQ!

My resolution is to add some activity to my day. I know I am more active in general due to my weight loss, but I want to do more planned physical activity. I have freeweights, I have more time, so now it's just doing it!

I have two New Year's resolutions which is breaking the resolution I made many years ago not to have New Year's resolutions. However, I intend:

1. To walk at least 15 minutes at least 3 days a week. I hate exercise, but will grimly try this because I haven't lost a pound in 4 months.

2. Eat more French food. Why are those French people so thin? Because their food is so satisfying that you don't have eat much of it. Of course, when I made that delicious French pork tenderloin in orange and sherry sauce, I threw up 8 times before it got it out of my esophagus. So my resolution also includes eating French food VERY slowly. One thing about it though, it tasted just as good coming up as it did going down. I plan to make French scalloped potatoes a whole lot more. It features a whole lot of garlic. Garlic is good for you, right?

3. I will not make anymore New Year's resolutions.:paranoid

I resolve to be more organised this year. Too much of my life is lived in utter chaos - messy house, cant find anything, running late, chuck stuff out of drawers looking for clean socks, make even more mess kind of chaos. I hate it and I am going to be more on top of keeping the house in order.

I also want to cut down on needless spending, coffees and lunches out, buying things I dont want or need. We are going to extend our house this year and I want to make sure it isnt postponed due to not having saved enough.

I want to run a half marathon late in 2007 - but that's not a resolution, I WANT to do that so I wont need to "stick" to anything I dont want to do, lol.

My resolution is to get myself invited to Bitter's house now that she is cooking French cuisine. That pork dish sounds brilliant and I love scalloped spuds and garlic is good with everything savory.:hungry:

I plan on downsizing in 2007. That is everything - my body, my stuff, my junk ur treasures, etc.

I plan on putting together more jigsaw puzzles. It should help keep me engaged and my hands with something to do.

I reluctantly will take some golf lessons to see if I can enjoy the game my DH wants me to.

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      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.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!
