The Sunday Weekly Weigh-In

Hi fellas - I see I haven't posted to the Sunday weigh in since March 25!  I've been having some issues, and find I can easily fall back on food for comfort when stressed.  I've been up almost 11 pounds from my lowest and am trying to get it back off now.  Pre-op diet: 280 Lowest weight since WLS:  173 Last post: 180 This week: 183 Total down: 97 Pounds left to my personal goal: 8 Hope everyone has a good and safe week! Matt

I had my second fill last week. I am now at 6cc’s! Before, when I was at 4cc’s I could only ‘feel’ the band when I did not follow the rules (Failed to chew thoroughly, too big of a bite, Fibrous foods without blending, etc…). Now at 6cc’s, I feel the band at every meal! It is really going to be a more effective tool for me now. A lot of my success to this point was perseverance and willpower, with the mental note that the band will remind me to follow the rules. Now, with every swallow feeling restricted, I feel full MUCH sooner! With that all being said, here are my results to date… 05Oct06          389.0   -           Initial Consult with Illinois Bariatric Clinic 14Jan07           385.8   -           3.2# loss since Initial Consult (Approval Date) 17Jan07           383.4   -           Pre-Op Consult - 2.4# loss (Start Liquid Diet) 21Jan07           371.2   -           12.2# loss since Pre-Op Consult 28Jan07           362.8   -           8.4# Loss since last Sunday 30Jan07           359.6   -           Lap Banding today 3.2# Loss since last 04Feb07          355.2   -           4.4# Loss since surgery date 08Feb07          352.8   -           Post-Op Consult - 2.4# loss since Sunday 11Feb07          349.6   -           3.2# Loss since Post-Op Consult 18Feb07          350.2   -           0.6# GAIN since last Sunday 25Feb07          344.4   -           5.8# Loss since last Sunday 04Ma07           338.4   -           6.0# Loss since last Sunday 08Mar07         First Fill          Band is at 4cc’s 11Mar07          333.8   -           4.6# Loss since last Sunday 18Mar07          327.6   -           6.2# Loss since last Sunday 25Mar07          326.0   -           1.6# Loss since last Sunday 01Apr07          323.0   -           3.0# Loss since last Sunday 08Apr07          321.0   -           2.0# Loss since last Sunday 15Apr07          314.4   -           6.6# Loss since last Sunday 16Apr07          Second Fill      Band is now at 6cc’s 22Apr07          312.8   -           2.6# Loss since last Sunday 77.2# Loss overall 47.8# Loss since surgery 2.6# Loss since last band fill

Hello Everyone

 

I had a good week, but I have not lost anything this week.  I guess this is one of those stall weeks.  I know that next week I should have some loss. Highest Weight - 347 Pre-Surgery-322 Last Week-270

Two weeks since my last weight in. Thought I was plateauing (SP) for the second time.  Starting wieht (July 10th) 455 Weight on surgery date (January 4th) 365 Loss for surgery 90 Today's weight 275 Loss from surgery 90 Total loss 180 Even thought the loss is slowing down a bit I do see the changes. I have gone from a 54 wiast to a 38, a 4XL shirt to a 2XL/XL, and from a 3XL scrub suit at work to an XL. And below the belt from non-existant to holy crap where did that come from!?!?!?!?! I am loving it.

Started clear liquids on Tuesday @ 330, today 316. Maybe this thing will work. Bret
