Nov. Nymphs "Spring into Weight Loss" Challenge Week #3



Recommended Posts

I didn’t loose any weight this week stayed the same. I need your help.

On Wednesday I went for my third fill but my doctor felt since I had loss 11lbs since my last visit on January 22 that I did not need a fill. I told him am hungry more often, I felt no restriction, unless I eat to fast and something is stuck. He said I am losing very fast (57lbs in 3 months) also if he gave me a fill now, when It’s not necessary, when I need It they will be no room for one. Moreover, he thinks I feel less restriction is because I lost fat around my band :confused2:. I have a 10cc band with 51/2 cc in it now. I was so disappointed,:confused: and of course I reached for all the wrong food, it’s been two days since my appointment I am still not back on track.:hurray: Help please, I try to tell myself I am doing well, his right but I still fell hungry (could be head hunger, not sure), and no restriction. Any advise suggestions.

I swear I'm going the wrong way. I can't figure out what's going on. It just might be "That time of the month." All I can say is that this is not fun.

No change for me this week either. Going for a fill tomorrow (Monday), so I'm hoping that will get it moving again. I also only worked out twice this week instead of my usual 4-5 days. So maybe I need to get moving again too!!

I was stalled on weight loss recently and actually gained a little over pound even though I knew I was not doing anything different, then all of a sudden I lost what I gained and since I posted Thurs have lost another pound. Who knows why these things happen? I had not been stalled previously, just slowly, steadily losing, so the stall came as a surprise and disappointment.

Now I know it just happens and it's good to know that If I stick to the right things, it will go away. I'm thinking it will happen again and now I know better how to handle it. ( ok that should be, maybe I know better how to handle the disappointment)

I had high hopes for my last fill, for a couple days it was perfect. Ate three small meals and felt full in between them. It was heaven! It's already diminishing to varying degrees but now I know I'm close.

I'm thinking I'll only need .5 cc next fill!

Marie: I hate when the Dr only bases a fill on weight loss and not hunger. But your weight loss is remarkable, hang on and continue to do what got you there, I'm sure he'll fill you soon.

Wendy: If you're doing everything the same and know you're not adding extra food, the scale will move. It is so frustrating tho. When it was happening to me, I just couldn't figure it out. We put so much effort in and then the scale does nothing?

The last time I lost thirty pounds it took me 10 months. With the band it took me slightly over three! What a difference.

      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.

      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!!
