I hope you figure it out, because I wanna seeeee!

I have played both. The Kinect is so awesome that we returned our wii. The kinect makes sure that your doing your moves properly. I play the biggest loser and it really kicks my booty. It also has so many other features. I also play dance central. Thats really lots of fun.

So Lucky! Good for you. Keep us all posted.

Im not sure AmyRose. I will ask that next time I call them. Thanks you guys!

Don't know how much I can help. I haven't been banded yet, and want to be SO badly. Maybe you can try to think back to before you were banded. All he struggles you faced , and all you issues. Don't forget why you got banded. You can do it it. Everyone here is living proof that it can be done. Hang in there.

About two weeks ago my ins. (health net) gave me a list of contracted surgeons. So I research the closest one to my house and narrowed it down to one. dr. Krahn I went to his seminar and gave them all of my information. I was very pleased with his rates of success and was feeling blessed that I got to choose a good dr like him. Yesterday, his office called me and said he is NOT contracted with my medical group. I'm ***. I called health net and he is contracted with heath net, just no with my group. Ok? So how do I figure out who will be my surgeon? Health net lady said you might get him because we have a couple o centers of excellence. I researched my med groups contracted surgeons and there is 2. If I have to pick one of them I'm not even doing it. They both seem inexperienced. One was in KY and just up and left and came here. He is still listed as a dr in KY. The other dr name doesn't come up when I search him. I called my med group and no one answered (3 pm). Weird. I'm calling health net again tomorrow in the morning. I need some answers. Does anyone know what the process is? Thanks.

Very insightful! Thanks for your reply. Kinda hitting a road block today. Putting up a new post next.

http://www.unjury.com/store/protein/unjury-protein/protein-containers/unflavored-protein-container.html I read a lot of people using thie brand. They have a chicken flavor too! Wonder if adding that to Soups and thing would be any good. Mmmmmmm

Original Recipe Yield 4 servings Ingredients 4 cups chicken broth, divided 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch 2 eggs 1 egg yolk Directions Reserve 3/4 cup of chicken broth, and pour the rest into a large saucepan. Stir the salt, ginger and chives into the saucepan, and bring to a rolling boil. In a cup or small bowl, stir together the remaining broth and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and egg yolk together using a fork. Drizzle egg a little at a time from the fork into the boiling broth mixture. Egg should cook immediately. Once the eggs have been dropped, stir in the cornstarch mixture gradually until the Soup is the desired consistency.

hahahah! Love it!!! Watch out now.

I called them and they said the same. Thats real good for me. I might not even reach that high.

You guys are ALL awesome!!! Thanks so much for the replies. Now it seems possible. I like the smart ones also. My daughter starts Kinder in Aug, so I could take my little one to the gym with me or do what I can at home when he naps. I was freaking out a little thinking that I had to prep EVERY meal. shakes and smart ones will do just fine. I cant wait to start!!

Congrats and good luck. Keep us posted

Those of you with the lap band and young kids, how do you manage it all. I have a 7 month old and an almost 5 year old. I feel that when I have my surgery, and I need to paln meals, it will be hard. Plus fit in and exercise routine? Any tip or tricks out there to help manage your time? Thanks

Love this! Thanks for sharing.
