Losing the Fluff: Weekly Weigh In

Weekly Weigh In

Well, turns out I did lose 1.5lbs of the Santa weight and trying not to beat myself up about the fact that it likely would have been more without the Taco Bell & Candy. Definitely progress though, so I will focus on that. I did take today off from the gym, but am considering a walk. I'll see how I feel and what time I get done working. Current weight: 141 lbs.

Tips for Success with Lap Band

Eat only small meals (four to six ounces = 1/2 to 3/4 cup)
Cut food into small, dime-size bites. Eat only one bite at a time. Chew thoroughly and swallow carefully.
Stop eating as soon as you feel full. Just because you can eat more, doesn't mean you should!
Do not drink while eating.
Eat only quality, nutritious foods. Remember protein first!
Avoid white, starchy foods and fibrous foods with stalks
Drink plenty of fluids during the day (eight 8oz glasses) unless contraindicated due to a medical condition
Drink only low-calorie liquids
Exercise at least 30 minutes a day, unless contraindicated due to a medical condition
Call your surgeon, nurse practitioner, or provider if you have any problems, questions, concerns, vomiting, or are unable to keep down liquids.

These are general guidelines, but each patient is unique. Speak with your doctor or nurse practitioner if you have questions or are struggling with any of these guidelines.
