OMG Juli - the mental image (my retinas are burned)...LOL

Okay - FINE - I admit it I'm a recovering scale Whore Too...you people are going to make me fall off of the wagon. Tomorrow it is - weigh in! I cannot hold myself responsible if it isn't the number I wish...

(pst...Lulu - your DH may need to send me your "lost" scale..ah hem...mine may be riddled with shotgun pellets or even better dented from a hammer -- oohhh that sounds like fun!)

I am a scale addict as well. I like to weigh myself before potty time and then after to see how much I lost! :)

I had one ran over by a truck....truly horrible...lol..

I am ready to start protein! :)

How is everyone else doing??

Here's something, I went for a pear, peeled of course, instead of something like pretzels or cheese.

It's a little slow going down, but yeah, I feel like that's a reasonable choice as far as food goes.

As an aside, no desire to hyjack, but anyone twitter?

I would love to join in on this party if it is not too late! I have got to get my a$$ is gear. I have just slacked off and I don't have a good reason for it!

I do have a question for all of you. If you have a dialated esphogus and you do liquids for a fews days does the esphogus revert back to normal?

Welcome Becky! You are more than welcome. Some of us have started some have not.

As for the esphogus, I have no good answer. Sorry! I would ask your Dr.

So I do believe that I will ABSOLUTEly be having a mixed drink on New Years Eve this year. I have a 4 year old son who will be spending the night at his grandmothers, and I intend to take full advantage of the situation. We plan to go out, somewhere, and one drink won't kill me, it will just knock me on my a$$, that's all.

I've moved on to mushies tonight, having baked ricotta cheese with marinara sauce. I made about 1/2 cup of cheese with a 1/4 cup of sauce, and it is so good, but I am getting full quickly, which is a great thing. I'll be back to liquids tomorrow as I just made broccoli cheese Soup for my lunch.

Hope everyone's having a great day.

It is so great to see everyone is doing well. I am so glad to know that I am not the only one that steps on the scale before and after going potty just to see what the difference was. I can't go in there without stepping on it once. Did my smoothie this morning and it actually held me for several hours. I felt so full! I have NEVER felt like that from my Protein Drink. I am so glad that you started this BBK!

This thread has been a godsend. I started liquids today and I feel so much better. I have been sipping on Special K Protein Water and it really does take the cravings away. I had my lap band surgery Nov. 20th of this year and have only lost 13 pounds. However, I have been able to eat more than I thought possible during this Christmas holiday. The good news is that I haven't gained any weight, but the bad news is that I am not losing as I would have had I not overindulged myself!

I was so... happy to see this thread and I hope with the new year, will come the new attitude that someone mentioned in their post. You guys are great!

      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!!

      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?
