Thanks everyone for your condolences and prayers! You guys are the best.

I love to cook, so I'll keep the recipes coming. I still enjoy it eventhough I can only eat about 1/2 cup of it. That's why I don't waste my 1/2 cup on anything I don't enjoy eating.

yesterday

b-cookies and cream muscle milk

l-small chili from wendy's (did not stay down, I guess it's too chunky)

d- 1/2 of a salmon burger wrapped in lettuce topped with lemon dill yogurt sauce

exercise--1 hr at the gym

**Slim, try the cioppino, if you like seafood, you'll love it

How much did you get? (the 1cc you wanted?)

I got .1cc (not a typo, really .1). I can't believe how much difference that drop of Fluid makes. It's kicking my butt! I got .2cc in May and had to have half taken out, so I was afraid to get more than .1cc. It feels a little tighter than I'd like at this point but I can get things down as long as I'm careful. I'm not enjoying the discomfort of being so tight. On the bright side the scale is rapidly moving down!! :smile2:

Today....

B – Protein latte

L – 1/2 C. cottage cheese, 2 wedges laughing cow light spread on 3 wafer thin crispbread slices (20 cal each).

S – 1/4 C. FF Greek Yogurt with tiny squirt of honey

D – 2oz tuna steak, ¼ C green Beans, 2 bites roast potatoes

I've been told that as we drop weight, our band becomes loose and that's why we may need the fill. With your current weight lose (good job!), this fill could be it, maybe the sweet spot!

I still think I could use just a bit more. We'll see on the 15th if I get more or not.

Still no headaches.

As far as shirt tucking, I've never been a shirt tucker. It's funny how pictures will show us things we never see in the mirror. I sometimes think I look pretty good until I see a picture, lol.

Great news on the headaches! Tucking; oh my, I still can't believe what I saw and so ture, the camera never lies. A capture in time can tell a million stories,,,and mine was not a nice story :D

Today was a :smile2: :thumbup: day

Just loved the look of your post. It made me think, smile and laugh as I read it.

My day started out like that too!

Never really got back on track.

chips, Cookies, and a real soda (haven't had one of those in months).

dinner was ok; leftovers- a Hamburger Helper.

I hope that by the weekend I'll be better. I will be doing MY grocery shopping and getting my foods back in order. I find that I become lazy when I start getting low on my own groceries.

School starts next week too. I hope this will help me, won't have to feed all the kids all day long.

Need to get control again!

Sorry I'm going on an on, I need to voice it, hear it, own it and learn from it.

Thank you everyone for being there!

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
