Starting the holiday detox early, anyone wanna join me?



Recommended Posts

My surgeon actually told me a story about one of his male patients that refused to weigh in with clothes on.

They finally had to move the scales into the patient room when he comes to weigh LOFL

The last time I went to get a fill, I said it sure would be nice to weigh naked, and the assistant said, many people do. So, I dropped my drawers and was sitting in my undies when the doc came in.

Well, I have two "official" weights - what I weigh at the doctor's office (clothed but shoeless) and what I weigh at home (nekkid, on Friday mornings after ...umm....elimination). I don't worry about the difference.

My doctor's office subtracts 2 pounds for clothes automatically. Good morning everyone!

I haven't had a chance to read all of the replies, but I'm with ya! I slid a little bit over the holidays, but I went to the store yesterday and got some Carnation Instant Breakfast and loaded up on Lean Cuisines! They have a really good price at Kroger right now. I am so ready to get my butt back in gear.

Things are going great! I'm not doing the detox exactly, but I've kicked myself back onto plan. As of today I've lost the 3.2 pounds I put on during Christmas (and even more than that if I measure from last Saturday's horrible numbers on the scale - but I didn't write those down and consider them a bad dream lol).

Keep up the great work everyone! Here's to a slim and trim 2009!

But I am curious to see if the amounts of food I can eat change at all. I was dealing with a fill I thought might be too tight since september then it's slowly loosened the last month and I feel like I might be eating too much now.

i've confirmed i don't need a fill yesterday. my food portions were much less, and even after doing an hr of cardio - i didn't have my normal 2 Snacks a day. good sign.

8_6_49.gif 8_6_47.gif 8_6_50.gif Well yesterday was my last day of the 5 day p.t. Official weight loss this morning was 6 lbs. YAY!!!! I am so happy. I will definitely use this when I plateau. I think it would be great then.What a new year this is going to be. My goal is that I will be down 80-100 lbs. by bandiversary! Which is totally do-able. I made a NYs resolution years ago not to make any more NYs resolutions, but this yr. I am. I am going to exercise on a regular basis instead of haphazardly.

How is everyone else doing? Great I hope.

Oh WOW, g4e, that is FANTASTIC!!!!

You updated your ticker with the new loss, right?? :wink2:

I can hardly wait for my bandiversary so I can see how far I have come. I'm very excited now that I'm no the "weight loss" portion of my banding.

Ticker's are supposed to reflect your weight loss? Damn missed the boat on that one (I took mine down because it lied all the time!)

Contrats g4e...My "official" start date is tomorrow...liquid hell (sigh)...can't wait!

Yes updated ticker first thing. Called my sister and bragged a little while ago. It feels good bragging to her. I am so close to 50 lbs lost. I really can't tell much of a difference at times. Then other times it is like Oh My Gosh! The pics at Christmas made me look fatter than when I first started 46 lbs ago. Income tax time I have to get some new over the shoulder boulder holders:smile:. Mine are getting to big. This time I will get professionally fitted. cups are really getting big. I don't want to lose anymore there. A "c" is a good size. But who knows if I get proper fit and hold....

      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?

      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... :(
