July Butterflies Master Thread



Recommended Posts

:) Congrats to all you bandiversary folks out there. I'm not until the 26th. Doesn't it feel good to have lost all the weight we have? I got a .25 fill last Tuesday. I can already tell I'm not eating as much. Had a quarter of a hamburger on ww bun for dinner and 5 or 6 zucchini fries. Filled me to the brim. It is so much fun to buy smaller clothes. My feet have even gotten smaller. Went from a 7w to a 6 or 6 1/2med.

Have a great Independence Day. God Bless America!

Today was a year for me. I am still in the same place as last year meaning still have not beaten the stupid eating disorder. I am better though and that is success!

I'm here. I went to my dr. yesterday and I had 7.4 in a 10 band. I was having a lot of trouble eating Protein and was eating more slider foods. They removed .7 of Fluid and I am already doing better. Hope to be at goal by this time next year!

Good to hear from you. Wow! you have a lot of fill. I know, when I needed an unfill.........I was miserable. Pb'ing all the time. Now I am trying to build back. I go on the 29th hopefully for my last fill for awhile. I too, hope to have reached goal by the end of next year.

I'm here. Not losing weight, but not gaining either. I am STILL not exercising.:confused: I just feel lazy. I am happy with my loss and just hope to keep going, albeit, slowly this next year. 80lbs isn't too bad.

I have roughly the same size fill as you do but I am still trying to get used to it

I'm also waiting for that blasted ticker to move. my fill is still at 5.2 I'm gonna stop being a chicken and call for an appt. Monday morning. I haven't had one since the begining of Feb. I just wish my fill center had fluro. I would like to see whats going on in there. It's kinda hard for me to guess when I have enough or to much, but so be it, it is what it is. And as far as the exercise I wish I could really get into it but it just doesn't seem to go that way. I see people getting into running and so on, It sounds great but when I try most exercise I just don't get that warm fuzzy feeling they seem too. Oh well, I'll keep trying. Congats to all.

      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'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? 🤷‍♀️
