Vicki, just remember to eat a little here and a little there to help with *Damage* control, so even if you stay the same through the holidays it'll be better than a gain.

Hey all

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Birthday Vicki

hope you had a great one!

I have been crazy, got a great job offer and start work Monday, so I have been working hard to take care of everything I need to get done. This is my last week of unemploment so it was odd, but perfect.

Anyway, hope you are all doing well and eat healthy. I soaked my turkey in a brine for 2 days to make it moist so I can eat it, my first thanksgiving in 3 years. Last year when I thought I could eat again, had my first gall bladder attack so I'm so excited about today. So excited about getting a fill on the 10th because I can eat EVERYTHING and anything... not good.

have a great day

I saw Dr. Hoffman last week he said I gained 4 pounds. He said I need to eat five small meals everyday, I have no idea how to do it. Does anyone have ideas?

Tomorrow is my day!!!! I get banded by Dr. Hoffman at 10am. Today was easier than I thought it would be. I have cooked lunch and dinner for my family and I wasn't even hungry or tempted to take even a tiny bite! I almost licked my finger once out of habit but caught myself. And the drinking of the magnesium stuff.....not as bad as I expected, nor the end result. It's working, just not as severe as I thought it would, which is a good thing!!!! Very excited, not the least bit nervous...yet!!!

Hello..

I think I am going to lose it!!! I had my appt with Posner today and have a tentative date scheduled for the december 16th BUT I am 1 &^#$%*@&*~ point higher than my insurance wants me to be for BMI. WTF????? They will not cover me. All of this AFTER losing my 16lbs that was required. Proud that I achieved that but not sure how much further I can go.

Is it me or has this process been the biggest PITA!

Is it really worth it????

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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
