Ok! I have to ask what are you doing to lose weight so fast. I was banded 8/4/08. I lost 12lbs and gained 3lbs of those back. So please tell me what are you doing. My sw was 334lbs when I had my one week visit my weight was 322lbs. Today I'm 325. Share the your info Girlfriend:wink_smile:

Good for you. That is such exciting news. A big milestone. Keep up the good work.

Hi Melolo I had been doing the liquid/mushy foods and just drinking Water and the Protein water. I started yesterday the regular diet and this is what i could handle

breakfast- 1 scrambled egg and two tiny bites of diet wheat toast

lunch- 1 vienna sausage and 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes

supper- same

this morning i had

Breakfast 1 scrambled egg/cheese

lunch 2oz ham and mashed potatoe

supper 2oz chicken, small mashed potatoe, small mac/cheese

and I have been doing some walking

I hope this helps. Personally I pick over my food cause I'm never hungry

Hello, I checked out your post and wanted to let you know you are doing great . Everyone is different. Most surgeons will tell you that many people don't lost any significant weight (some gain) until they begin fills and have restriction. Please concentrate on healing right now and just try not to eat more than they suggest or foods that aren't allowed.

Marie, your meals sound alot like mine during that stage. Now, I eat about a cup of food at each meal. Sometimes I can only eat a half cup of Soup before I am full. It varies. How do you eat your chicken? I have to chew, chew, chew, and still feel like it may stick. Luckily it hasn't yet.

Congrats to you!!!!! I know how wonderful you must feel! Keep up the GREAT work!

Hi crzytchr I just take my chicken and remove the skin and really mash it up before I eat it.. and just take really small bites I do that with all my foods. I told one of my daughters last night that I never thought I would be picking at my food before I eat it insted of just woofing it down...lol

Hi,

It's me... Thanks for sharing Marie. Hey Crzytchr! Thanks for the encouragement. I'm very grateful for both. I got a little scared because it seemed I was starting to go up instead of going down or at least maintaining. This morning I step on the scale and I'm back to 323 which is good news. I'm heading in the right direction
