I hated that I missed the meeting. I took my mom shopping. I always miss the meetings when the plastic surgeons are there!! Dang!! My mom is doing great! Her knees are healing nicely and she has lost 87lbs!! I took her to Catherines and used to she could barely stand for 5 minutes, she was in there for 20 minutes and never looked for a place to sit down. On a side note, it was fun to look and see that there were no clothes in my size!!! haha!

I hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving!!

=)

I am so happy with myself today! I did so good yesterday. I got a small plate and a teaspoon so I could choose what I really really wanted to eat and that's all I ate. No going back for seconds. No dessert of any kind. I can't believe how much food I would eat in years past. Serving myself with a teaspoon really helped. Yippee for me!

I hope everyone else did well and feeling good about themselves tonight. Kaninag, I will be crossing my fingers for that weight loss you want. I know you can do it...just hang in there.

Thats awesome LollyMoe...I did the same thing and was disappointed when I did have room for what I got or caramel pie :Yawn: It was all good though I was thankful to be with my family and thankful today that I have gained NOTHING these last few days....

Anway I need to lose 20lbs bc that will be my goal-actually its 6lbs below my goal and my PS told me he would do my arm lift when I was where I wanted to be--YAY!!!!!

Why does it seem easier to make bad food choices and not eat right verses eating right and staying focused?

I had lost 120 pounds from my heaviest but have gained 4 pounds back.

Can't seem to get back on track again!!!

40 poundsfrom goal (well was 40 now 44) I wonder if it's just a mental block or something?

Has anyone done this before? And if you did how did you get back on track?

I know i'm rambling but gone to far to turn back now!!!

Just confused a little.

IT HAPPENS TO EVERYBODY!!!!! Its just one of those things, you cant expect to be perfect 365 days a year- just remember why you had the surgery, get that bad food out of your house and replace it with good :)

You can get back on track--plus its the holiday season...the most difficult time of year for us bandsters!!!

Ok, everyone. I haven't posted in a while but I need some answers. I was banded on 4/29/2009, I have had 5 fills for a total of 8cc's. I have absolutely NO restriction! What's up with that? Lisa had told me that she didn't have any patients over 9cc's. I am having no adverse symptoms to speak of. I am still losing about 1 lb a week, but by sheer will power. I have never felt restriction and I have never PB'd. Do you think it is just taking me longer to reach restriction or do you think there is a problem? How many cc's are ya'll at? I know everyone is different but still? I have an appointment for 12/22 for another fill, should I ask Lisa if something could be wrong?

see about getting another fill. Just bc they dont have anybody over 9cc doesnt mean you wont be the first:tongue2: everybodys different. Its great though that you have been able to maintain weightloss with no restriction...good for u

BTW PBing is not something that you want to do...so if youre only able to eat about a cup of food and youre full.....you may have more restriction than you think!

GOOD LUCK!!!Just look at how much youre eating compared to before!

Thanks for the encouragement :eek: I just worry alot about slippage and/or erosion. I really have no desire to experience the PBing thing. But I can definitely eat more than a cup of food before feeling satisfied. I am following all of the food rules, however I could stand to exercise a little more than I do. They told me I would know if something was wrong and I feel fine. Hopefully the fill I get on 12/22 will do the trick. *fingers crossed*

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
