Felicia, you sound just like me. I can do low carb easy as I'm not much into the breads etc. either. I get about 700-900 calories a day and my carbs are in veggies, etc. as well. I had great restriction last week after my first fill but it seems to be gone this week. We travelled today and I had a piece of pizza, I was hoping it wouldn't go down so well!! LOL It was only one piece though. I try to watch my protein more than the calories though. I may get another fill next week or the week after.

Hey everyone, I went to the doctor today and I am now down a total of 60lbs. That includes post op lbs. I also got a fill today (1cc) and I'm on clear liquids for two days then mushies following the clear liquid diet. Doesn't it feel good to lose weight. I also joined a gym and my daughter and I have been working out faithfully everyday. It's good to see that everyone's doing great.

hi everyone!
i was out for vacation for a week; i missed being in here! i just landed, and couldn't resist coming online.
so...i didn't do so well while i was out. i cheated on my low carb diet and didn't exercise as much as i wanted to...ugh. the scale did go up a bit and i'm sure i'll feel bad tomorrow. i hope to get that scale moving towards the lower numbers asap!!!!!!

Ugh so last night I went to the movies and we snuck snacks in (rebels!!) hehe. I brought a big bag of cheddar chex mix and ate like, half the bag while we were sitting there! I wasn't even that full afterwards! Tomorrow I go to the doctor and I'm going to ask for another fill. I got home this morning and weighed myself, I had been at a steady 197 all week and I was 197.5, laaame.

It's been a rough couple of weeks here too. We went on a mini vacation, and I made HORRIBLE choices. This week has been better, but not much. Think I need another fill too, cause can eat way too much. I stop myself (at times)!

I weigh in Tuesday, so will talk to the coordinator about then. At first after my fill, I had restriction. I do in the morning, but by afternoon, I could probably eat a horse!

I too was vacationing lately...Made horrible choices for the most part. Didnt do mydailyplate as much as normal. I was shocked to find that I still managed to lose a pound last week. I was previously 50 lbs heavier than my hubby but now am only 4 lbs heavier!!! Cant wait to weigh less than him. He is 6'1" and I am 5'8". Hope everyone is well. Still waiting for my first fill . See the surgeon again tomorrow but I doubt I will get a fill as I still have some sort of rash around the port area after recovering from wound infection there.

I went to the doctors today and apparently I am down 8 pounds from my last visit exactly 2 weeks before! SO even though I've didn't really think I had been eating that well lately, he didn't think I needed another fill and told me to wait for our next visit 3 weeks from now for my 2nd fill. Yay I'm so pumped! Although the doctors scale is always like, 2 pounds less than my electronic one... hmmm...

I went for my second fill yesterday and only lost six pounds between fills. I was soooo disappointed. I've done everything correctly and have been absolutely starving every minute of the day. Hopefully I'll find a little restriction with this second fill. Sounds like everyone is pretty much melting away - which is great! Anyone else have a weightloss stall this soon after surgery??

I am 8 days post surgery and to date with pre-op diet and first 8 days have lost 19lbs!

AnneV: I have had a 2 week weight loss stall however I continue to make bad food choices and have not been exercising at all. I am scheduled for a 2nd fill on 9/9. I am really trying to get motivated and move! If you are doing everything correctly & staying on track my guess is you'll experience a large weight loss when your body is ready to let it go!

I went for my 2nd fill yesterday and I lost 7 lbs since my first fill!!! WOOHOO!! 1st fill was only 2 weeks ago! I just got a tweak she called it of .5cc's since I was losing good but starting to get hungrier and able to eat more. I'm not noticing much difference though in the 'tweak'.

Congrats to everyone. I had my 2nd fill almost a week ago and I can sure tell the difference. I have lost a total of 33 pounds and still counting.
