Dr. John Bagnato - Bagnato Bandits Running Weight Loss Totals



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, I thought it would be a good idea to have a running weight loss total thread. I've seen them in other forums, like the date specific forums and thought it would be nice to have one here. I'll start it off.

To add your stats, just copy the entire list and paste it to your reply and add your stats to the list. To edit or update your stats, do the same thing, just copy the entire list and change your stats.

Leslie 6 pounds in one week - way to go! My weight loss has slowed to a snails pace, but can't complain - I love my band.

I am so impressed with your weight loss, I on the other hand have slowed to nothing and can't seem to figure out why. I eat 1400 calories or less per day I walk atleast 4 days a week and I am pretty active with my family on the weekend. If you have any suggestions on how you kept yours up I would love to hear them. take care

Jeannie - My best advice would be to mix things up. I've had times where I've gone 3 weeks without a loss and I think what happens is that my body gets used to how much I'm eatting so I shake it up a little. I try to stay around 800-1000 calories a day (I'm older and the metabolism slows way down so I can't eat as much as others), but when my weight loss slows down I'll increase my calories for a couple of days. I also log my calories with fitday, this really helps me stay on track. I also find it very important to watch what type of carbs I eat. I rarely eat bread, no white rice, only wheat Pasta occassionaly, potatoes about once a month.

Here's what I ate yesterday. B: 3/4cup Kashi go lean Cereal, 1/2 cup low fat milk. L: 2 ozs deli ham and 1 slice 2% swiss cheese. S: dry roasted endamame in am and 2 cups popcorn (40 calories) mid afternoon. D: small pork chop baked, brown rice (less than 1/4 cup), and green peas (about 2 tblsp).

I also don't snack after dinner, I do drink 2-3 quarts of Water a day and I normally will not have any Protein drinks.

I don't know if any of this helps and if you have any other questions, feel free to ask. I just hope everyone's weight loss dreams come true.

Georgia Girl - I eat dinner around 6:00 most nights but I also head to bed a lot earlier than you. I would prefer to be in bed around 9:30 or 10:00 and be up by 6:00am. They say that you shouldn't eat within 3 hours of going to bed so for me that means about 7:00. Now if I ate at 6:00 and stayed up till midnight, I'm sure I would want a snack. I'd probably move my morning snack to an evening snack. The other thing I do when I have the munchies is I get away from the kitchen. My bedrooms are upstairs so if I feel like munching I'll head upstaris for the night. Sometimes this can be as early as 8:30. I just find things to keep me busy up there away from the kitchen.

Thanks nip! I am trying to go to bed earlier. My normal bedtime is around 2:00am. Last night I went to bed at 1:00am, so I am gradually trying to go to bed earlier. I am the type of person that can survive on 5 hours of sleep and be fine. I used to have a cup of hot tea, SF hot chocolate, or SF hot apple cider at night. I may give that another try. Thanks for the tips!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
