Hello,

Heather, have a wonderful time!

I'm sorry that several of you are sick. I hope the sore throats clear up quickly.

I'm still plugging along with my 1200 calories a day. I'm seeing Dr. Baggs for the first time on Friday and want to be at a low weight for the month.

I'm finding it a lot of work to be always mindful that every single thought/decision brings me either closer or further from my goal. I was just driving home from San Jose (work) and had a sudden thought that I could stop at Wing Stop! Where in the world did that come from? I've never in my life been to Wing Stop. Needless to say, I just drove straight through. Wing Stop would not help me accomplish what I want before seeing Dr. Baggs.

I'm anxious, in a good way, to meet him and discuss my surgery options as well as my surgery goal weight etc.

Take care everyone. I may not post very often, but I always read. :)

I am here!! Just ate dinner....

so reposting for my thoughts:

Breakfast - 1 Atkins shake

lunch - lettace with one can tuna (lemon and olive oil)

snack - 1 Grande Skinny latte

dinner - 5 mini burgers with onions, mustard, and 2 slices red fat cheese. approx 1 cup cabbage. My ex got me a small bag of Pork rinds and I ate those too...sheesh!

Overall, compared to what I have been eating lately, this is so much better.

Evenin of Anchor Day Everyone!!!

Got my fill on, got my fill on, yes I did! Finally some time to post...I have been MIA since last Wed...Women of Faith volunteer & conference, hung with Sweet T! Church on Sun, and rested up, bit of a cough, then South San Fran for my ckup on Tues, and got a fill! I am now @ 6.5, which I believe is my sweet spot..cause I have kicked the plateau & losing!

Women of Faith was unbelievable, speakers, so funny, laugh til u cry, Mandisa home concert (she has lost 85 lbs!) & Nicole C. Mullen! Quite a time with ladies, and fun to volunteer (& get tickets for free!) I put a few pics in an album with my profile.

Been catching up the reading...hasnt been much talk of getting together this sat/sun...I dont think I should, am making sure I get better, plus looks like storm/rain. Hope u all still do something!

Ok ladies & John, I am cold!!! Been turning up the heating blanket...I must say I would rather layer to keep warm then to be sweatin in the winter...I cant believe how I can wear a few layers of clothes & fit them, not feeling bulky!

How is everyone else doing? Been watching the Biggest Loser, it really is encouraging, so glad Danny C. won, but everyone of the contestants are winners with what they have lost in weight yet gained in health!

I Celebrate my 1 year Bandiversary tomorrow...and am so excited and thankful to the Lord...where I am...half way there and rearing to begin again before 2010!!! :scared2:

P.S. thank you to all our group in here...I celebrate knowing I have the best support right here for another year plus!!!

Happy Bandaversery Donna!! Woohoo! Question- Do you think SSF would let me do a weight check even though I'm a Richmond patient? I'm going to be in SSF all morning tomorrow before our afternoon flight.

If I don't get back on again, Have fun while I'm gone! lol.

PS- Good job Tamra!

Let me just begin by saying my cat has a tumor sticking out of her but and is scheduled for surgery December 22nd. Doesn't cancer ever take a vacation? My poor baby had to get a rectal exam today - how the heck to you explain that to a cat - now she's not speaking to me!

Yeah Donna! Glad you got your fill and are losing again!! Don't think this weekend will work because it will be storming and, I, too have been Freezing lately! Not gonna venture out in the rain.

Riley - I have found my cure for head hunger! Wellbutrin LOL. I've been back on it for a few days now and have not been wanting to eat at all. Feeling any better?

Lee - I bet you'll be banded by march! Good luck with Dr. Baggs.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
