A trainer sounds great! That is just what I need but in the summer the kids are out of school and I like to work with her at bout 10:00 so my husband said I could join with her in August. I can't wait she really takes the pounds off me. Off for the summer sounds good. chicken gets stuck sometimes I hate that. I started back at the gym and walking. Not eating good plus no exersice is why i feel like i do. Yesterday i took my 10 year old with me and it was so funny to watch her work out with the weights i got a kick out of it. welp have great one guys.

Rsilvera where you been girl?

Still here. I'm going to my first post-op WW meeting Friday. Gonna tell them I had my gall bladder out last week (to excuse my absence). I HAVE had my gall bladder out but that was almost two years ago. Been wanting an egg salad sandwich but I'm almost there. pureed for the next few days then I can move on to minced and soft. Started drinking my son's chocolate milk and I'm going to have to wean me off it again (drat, I love that stuff).

Well, got back from my meeting. They were trying to get me to pay for the week I missed. I don't think they liked it when I said I couldn't make it because of doctor's orders but they didn't make me pay. The meeting was huge this time. All the retirees are back from Florida or coming down from Philadelphia for the summer. Couldn't wait to get out of there. No one would shut up and it was hard to hear the leader (even though I was in the front row).

Hey everyone! It's so great to see this thread is still alive and kicking. May I commend everyone for sticking to WW plan. It is a good one, however it was not one that I was able to move forward with. I simply do not have the time to keep up with writing everything down all day.

I need something much more practical and maybe with a bit more spontaneity. WW always left me frustrated because I had to look everything up and remember every little detail. Frustrated is not what I need because I easily fall off the wagon, so I just couldn't do it.

I am getting back to reality. I need a plan where I can keep the rules in my head and not stress so much on my "fun time" as in once a week I get to have a Breakfast of my choice, etc.

I'm not knocking WW either! I think its a really great plan, and it will work if you're the type that finds that sort of plan ideal. I wish it would work for me.

I am coming back to my healthy habit plans a little at a time. Sometimes we do fall far off the beaten path and for me, its better I take baby steps back. I do NOT want to crash again like I did before. I want to ease back into the correct way of thinking and make it my own again. I hope I'm making sense!

Best of luck to all you ladies. Stick with it, it sounds like it's a good plan for all of you. I'm super proud to see this thread lives on. :tt1:

Wish I didn't have to journal but I find if I don't write everything down, I gain weight. Better to deal with a little inconvenience. I had meeting today and was surprised to find I had lost .5 pounds. I've been eating like a horse since I've been able to get back to mostly normal eating.

I actually lost 2 pounds this week. I've been sick and haven't felt like cooking. The only thing that tasted good is ice cream. I have a horrid sore throat. In an effort to not sabotage my efforts though, I ate WW ice cream (but I still manage to eat the entire box--won't be doing that again soon). Hopefully this sickness goes away soon. I hate looking like I'm testing my Halloween costume (I have pink eye in both eyes).

Seen you guys made it back to the site. It was getting kinda lonely on here.LOL! RSilversea hope you get better soon. Pink eye is no fun hope your child don't get it.Great weightloss.

China Florida sounds so good right now which part did you go to? We are going in Oct thats if the oil stays away from panama city. I have gained too don't feel bad. I just went and got a fill I'm almost where i was before they empteyd my band. I do feel some restriction so i hope it helps. I am just getting so sad. Hope this fill does the trick so far it is can't eat that much so for a week or two will probably just do calories since i"m eating alot of Soups. Have good day glad everyones back.

Hi Everyone I'm new here and I'm getting banded August 6th!! In the past I did Weight Watchers and I loved it except that I was hungry all the time. I thought about trying it again with my band though.

Are you ladies counting points or doing Simply Filling? What is a typical day of eating like for you? I logged my food every day and I have 9 months worth of my daily menus written down but I'm thinking most of that stuff may not be Lap Band friendly.

How are you all doing this??

Thanks!!

Amanda

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
