How low can you go in 09 weightloss challenge#1



Recommended Posts

I'm down 2 lbs, but it has been a real struggle. I had my first fill and I don't think it's enough restriction. I'm hungry for the first time since surgery. I'm back to craving ice cream and bad foods. It's been a struggle. My next fill appointment isn't until February. I am trying to stay motivated until the next fill. Any motivational words are appreciated. Let me know what works for you. Thanks.

hang in there doxie things will get better. maybe you have to up your calories some so you wont get hungry as much. i ended up calling my dr to see if i could come in early as im able to eat more alot more. so they have me coming in on tuesday. i fell ok with that as i wasn't to come in for another month. maybe try freezing your yogurt i saw that on here before. if things dont get better soon maybe you should call your dr back and let them know that you might need another fill.

great job pete

So far, I lost 2 lbs. the first week, 1 lb. last week, and 2 lbs. this week - for a grand total of 5 this month.

Not great, but I'm certainly pleased. I went to the doctor on the 19th, which was supposed to be for my first fill, but they apparently scheduled me too early. They said they like to wait 8 weeks. I'll get my first fill February 12th. I'm looking forward to it. I get fairly hungry.

I am down 3 pounds this week. I've worked hard at tracking my food daily and it helps me be aware of what goes in the mouth. I also joined the Y and my goal is to get into the habit of walking a min of 3 x a week.

Keep up the good work everyone!

I am down none!! I would say what my scale says, but it kept fluctuating, and changed every time I got on it. Got on it like 6 times in a row and it changed everytime. It is an expensive digital one, and should give me the same reading if I get on it 5 seconds after I get off it!! But the average is the same. 265.

:drool:This sucks. I have been eating the same things for over a week, and have to keep eating them until Feb 2. Then I get a fill, and switch to solids. I feel myself wanting to slip. I really want something sweet. Not breads really, but a big chocolate candy bar with toffee...sorry. It probably doesn't help you either...I am a reinforcement motivated person though, and with no weight loss (I went from losing 3-5 lbs a week to 0) I am feeling like I did everything this happened with a diet.

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

      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! 😞
