There are two things I'm proud of here: firstly, I've just about managed to lose half of my pre-band weight. And second of all, this latest weigh-in comes after a two and 1/2 week long trip to America, from which I returned weighing less than what I did before starting out on that journey.

Wishing you all happiness and success, Bandpal

Just checking in for the first time since February. Moved my weight marker from 100 lbs to 115 lbs lost. Not bad for two years. I'm having a bit of a struggle right now because I had an upper GI and discovered I had complete blockage from the band, so they've let the Fluid out and I can eat about 75 to 80 percent normally. I've gained about 10 pounds and have taken 2 of that off. Can't wait until December, when hopefully I'll get a bit refilled.

I have not been on this site for a while... (bad bad me). I decided it was time to come back for a little moral support... and maybe a little advise on the current issues/problem I am experiencing.

I really need to get back on track!!!!

I just posted a thread about what is going on with me... any advice would be appreciated from my Nymph sisters :)

http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f255/does-weight-gain-make-your-band-tighter-106228/#post1369941

Currently, I am at 74lbs lost... (gained 7 the past few months) :confused:

Sorry I have been MIA. This semester has been about to kill me. I have been swamped. Fortunately I'm down to just a few random assignments and I will be on break.

I have lost 20 lbs since I checked in last!! It's funny I didn't realize how thin I was until I saw some pictures that my professor had take. Wow!! I'm tiny. LOL Not a discription I would have used two years ago. :thumbup: I hope everyone is doing well.

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to update you on my status since losing my band after having it only eight months. It's been almost 1.5 years since losing my band.

I am holding steady on my weight. I admit, it's not easy and sometimes is a bigger struggle than other times. My walking has been a tremendous help both for maintaining my weight and my mental health. It has also helped shape my body and I find I have a real waistline now!

I wish I had lost more weight before losing the band, but not sure I would be able to maintain that lower weight anyway without the help of a band or some restrictive surgery.

I still have a big fear of gaining the weight back and if I need to at some point I will consider another surgical option.

Oh and I am happy to announce I am going to be a grandmother!!! My daughter is expecting a girl in June.

Hope all the November Nymphs are well.

Hi everyone!

Shortgal - Good job maintaining your weight. I am struggling even with my band. Congrats on the grandbaby coming soon.

Momto1plus1 - Congrats on your amazing accomplishment. I want to see the "tiny" pictures. I need some inspiration.

My battle - I got down to 144 which was only 9 pounds from my goal. I am now back to 158. Ick! I feel fat again. I must get back to the gym and stop eating out. I've been at 158 for a while now so this is the place that I can easily maintain but it is not the weight I want to be. It is definitely better than 222 but I want that 144 again. I brought my lunch today and I will take 1 day at a time.

I hope everyone is well.

Jill

Jill,

Don't be so hard on yourself! I used to believe that if I just had a working band, then this whole weight thing would be a breeze and I wouldn't struggle so much, but you know, I see lots of banded people AND gastric bypass people that still struggle.

I guess for some of us, food will always be an issue.

Little things I've learned:

A cup of coffee in the afternoon can get me through late afternoon until dinner time.

An apple fills me for an hour.

Treats (sweets) need to be occasional, not everyday.

I look for the best choice when several items are presented in front of me. (Ok, at least most of the time, I do).

I splurge once in awhile, mostly if I've walked a lot over that week to offset it.

All this effort and I am still overweight, but I am way better off than I was a few years ago, so I'll take it!

And in MHO 158 is not fat, but I totally understand that you want to be back to the lowest you've been.

I have four pounds to get back to my lowest (which is definitely higher than 158) and it's like pulling teeth to get there!!! Hopefully when the weather gets better and I start walking regularly, that will happen!

Good Luck to us both.

I've been here for a while, now - weighing a little more than half of what I used to before the band, and maintaining it for nearly a year.

That's great that your maintaining Bandpal, if you were still losing you might disappear completely!

Congrats on being HALF the man you used to be!

      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!

      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!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
