| I'm new to the group too, 65 and holding. Glad we now have our own "place" to post, rather than one thread on the support board.
Phyllis: We didn't go to Quartzsite after all. We both got sick, and the car and dog got sick too, so we cancelled. That is why I didn't get in touch. Hope your'e having fun.

Saw your note about water aerobics. I joined water arthritis classes in Sept, and I love them. Our Y doesnt offer water aerobics, but I dont know that I am limbered up enough I could do those anyway. I know from past notes you are a snowbirder, I am jealous, it is 4 degrees here in KC. Hope you are warmer than that!!

Surprised that your Y doesn't have water aerobics! One I belonged to in OK before we moved had both high and low impact and at several times during the day. Here at the park we use a 60 minute tape... Billie Jo's Wet & Wonderful Celebration. It's listed on Amazon, but no longer available apparently. | |

City: Ceres State: Ca | Hi Sfeiner and all, I'm Esther, I am new to the forum. 12-31 07 was my surgery date. I lost 9 lbs in 10 days and decided to experiment with the cookies that are here for my grandson. One cookie -- I was 2 lbs lower the next day. So I ate 3 cookies - two lbs up, next day no cookies another 2 lbs up. It has been 9 days since the cookie incident and I cant seem to loose -- up and down but over all 2 lbs heavier than 9 days ago. I am desperate-- wonder if my Doctor will "kill" me. I have til the 31st til I see him. -- My back ground -- 40 start bmi, and only high bp as a co morbity- But I have a broken ankle that is not healing well due to arthritis setting in at the break, which is in such a spot that ankle replacement is not an option- ( the dr told me amputation was an option). I am hoping and praying that this surgery will help me loose enough weight to keep me on my own two feet for a long time.
I would think it would be nice to say my recomendation is don't ever cheat -- But since it has been over a week and I gained back another pound since yesterday. Im worried that I will be "one of those people" who can't loose.
Sigh--
I will try to give a better report next week.

| Esther: Don't worry about it. This first month ( and then some) is time for healing, not loosing. Perhaps you just upset your water balance with the carbs. You're still down 7 right, which at 1-2 pounds a week, your right in there. Just stay away from any more cookies, drink your water to re-establish your water balance. I'm no expert but have been reading for months and due to be banded on Feb 5

City: Ceres State: Ca | Thanks, Sharon, My daughter tells me the same thing that I am not drinking enough water. I think I will start writing that down along with my food intake and see what I am really doing

City: Quad Cities State: Il | Hi Group, Well tomorrow I visit the surgeon and hope to set the date. I am getting very excited and can't wait to be banded. I've been a very good girl since the 1st of Jan. with my eating and have been taking smaller bites and chewing everything really well. I just realized when I started that , that I never use to taste my food, just scarfed it down. Wat a difference it makes.
I keep my laptop, not on the internet, on my kitchen table with the Perfect Diet Tracker on it, and enter EVERYTHING I put in my mouth. I found it on the web and downloaded it.
Hope to have my good new tomorrow.
