269 this week. That's 3.5 # lost.

And if you look at my weight tracker you will notice that I officially have double digits to goal and my BMI is under 40. Woohoo for not being morbidly obese anymore.

*sigh* I gained 2 lbs this week. Big surprise I am late logging in. It was nice to have a big loss last week, but disappointing that I can so quickly jump back into bad habits, thinking I can "get away with it". Oh well, it's a process (long process) and we're making baby steps, right? I'm 64 lbs less than when I went to that first lap band info meeting, so that's something I have to keep reminding myself.

Guys,

I have been dealing with gaining and losing these 3 lbs for a while until I found a link that someone posted about 5 days pouch test. I did it and it worked. This morning I weigh 189 lbs. I am going to try to do really good this week and see if there is any changes.

Here is the link to it.

267 this week. That's down 2.

It was a struggle since it was that time of month for me. I've been starving all week. Not that I wasn't hungry before. I can't wait for a fill but sadly I have 2 more weeks to go. I was supposed to get filled this coming Tues but my work schedule got switched around and I couldn't get off so I had to reschedule and they didn't have anything until the 15th which I also worked. So 7/16 is the day. I can't wait for some restriction.

I weigh in at 223.2. I am fluctuating back and forth a couple pounds. My appetite is incredible. I have 2.8 cc's in a 10cc band and am looking forward to another fill on Wednesday. BUT it is going to take a while if I keep only getting .5 to 1 cc at each fill. UGH!!!

Good job to everyone! I totally forgot to post my last weeks' weight and haven't been online all week, so it is exciting to see how well everyone is doing.

Lingling - my Friday, June 26 weigh in was 230.6 and today, July 3 - I am at 227.6. Little by little...we'll get there!

Everyone have a wonderful weekend!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
