Recommended Posts

Felicia, you sound just like me. I can do low carb easy as I'm not much into the breads etc. either. I get about 700-900 calories a day and my carbs are in veggies, etc. as well. I had great restriction last week after my first fill but it seems to be gone this week. We travelled today and I had a piece of pizza, I was hoping it wouldn't go down so well!! LOL It was only one piece though. I try to watch my Protein more than the calories though. I may get another fill next week or the week after.

:scared2: Hey everyone, I went to the doctor today and I am now down a total of 60lbs. That includes post op lbs. I also got a fill today (1cc) and I'm on Clear Liquids for two days :thumbup: then mushies following the clear liquid diet.< img src="https://s.bariatricpal.com/uploads/emoticons/default_laugh.png" alt=":lol:" /> Doesn't it feel good to lose weight. I also joined a gym and my daughter and I have been working out faithfully everyday. It's good to see that everyone's doing great. :unsure:

Ugh so last night I went to the movies and we snuck Snacks in (rebels!!) hehe. I brought a big bag of cheddar chex mix and ate like, half the bag while we were sitting there! I wasn't even that full afterwards! Tomorrow I go to the doctor and I'm going to ask for another fill. I got home this morning and weighed myself, I had been at a steady 197 all week and I was 197.5, laaame.

It's been a rough couple of weeks here too. We went on a mini vacation, and I made HORRIBLE choices. This week has been better, but not much. Think I need another fill too, cause can eat way too much. I stop myself (at times)!

I weigh in Tuesday, so will talk to the coordinator about then. At first after my fill, I had restriction. I do in the morning, but by afternoon, I could probably eat a horse!

I too was vacationing lately...Made horrible choices for the most part. Didnt do mydailyplate as much as normal. I was shocked to find that I still managed to lose a pound last week. I was previously 50 lbs heavier than my hubby but now am only 4 lbs heavier!!! Cant wait to weigh less than him. He is 6'1" and I am 5'8". Hope everyone is well. Still waiting for my first fill . See the surgeon again tomorrow but I doubt I will get a fill as I still have some sort of rash around the port area after recovering from wound infection there.

I went to the doctors today and apparently I am down 8 pounds from my last visit exactly 2 weeks before! SO even though I've didn't really think I had been eating that well lately, he didn't think I needed another fill and told me to wait for our next visit 3 weeks from now for my 2nd fill. Yay I'm so pumped! Although the doctors scale is always like, 2 pounds less than my electronic one... hmmm...

I went for my second fill yesterday and only lost six pounds between fills. I was soooo disappointed. I've done everything correctly and have been absolutely starving every minute of the day. Hopefully I'll find a little restriction with this second fill. Sounds like everyone is pretty much melting away - which is great! Anyone else have a weightloss stall this soon after surgery??

AnneV: I have had a 2 week weight loss stall however I continue to make bad food choices and have not been exercising at all. I am scheduled for a 2nd fill on 9/9. I am really trying to get motivated and move! If you are doing everything correctly & staying on track my guess is you'll experience a large weight loss when your body is ready to let it go!

I went for my 2nd fill yesterday and I lost 7 lbs since my first fill!!! WOOHOO!! 1st fill was only 2 weeks ago! I just got a tweak she called it of .5cc's since I was losing good but starting to get hungrier and able to eat more. I'm not noticing much difference though in the 'tweak'.

      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!!
