    At Home Sleep Study

    I don't remember the name of the company but I tried an at home study and it was a nightmare. I wound up going to the sleep center to have one and I am glad I did because they go into a more indepth study and actually read your brain waves and such. Also if you do have sleep apniea they work on your presures while your sleeping to make sure it fits you best. At least thats how mine went. Ony thing that sucked about that is sleeping in a strange place with a bunch of wires all over you. But it's only one night. My at home sleep study was supposed to be 3 nights. Hope this helps and good luck!

    Big day for my wife

    Thank you everyone for your kind words. Everything went well today and she is recovering great. She is staying over night because she is a type 2 diabetic. Going to pick her up first thing in the morning. Once again thank you to everyone!
  9. I was banded July 25th and it has been the best decision of my life. Today I take my wife to the hospital for surgery at noon to get her band. Very excited for her but at the same time a little nervous for her. I know there is nothing to worry about, just second nature to be worried I guess.I know she will do fine. So excited for her. I will update later tonight or tomorrow morning how she made out. Good luck to her!! Scott
  10. 22lbs! Thats great! I know it's gotta be hard to be a stress eater. I am not a stress eater, I am a "eat when I am bored" eater. I just try to stay focused and go do something to get my mind off it. Or have a glass of tea or whatever you like. Have something that can't really hurt you in the long run. Maybe a sugarfree popsicle. Lets face it losing weight is not easy, thats why we are all here. For one another. You can do it! Stay strong and keep the lbs coming off!

    stool softeners

    You can get chewables or gummies. I use the chewables they are 15 calories and 7 carbs 4grams of dietary fiber and 4grams of soluable fiber per tablet oh and they are sugar free. Made by Fiber Choice. I will admit they dont taste the greatest but they aren't to bad. I havn't tried the gummies yet but I plan to after these are gone. And I am sure you can find some with less or even no calories. Check GNC or a local vitamin shop. I bought these at walmart.

    stool softeners

    I just have 2 chewable fiber tablets per day and all works well over here...lol I have no need for softeners as long as I remember to take my fiber once in the morning and once at night.

    Isopure protein drink

    I used isopure for a while and my nutritionist said 2 scoops is WAY to much. Use 1 scoop in about 6-8 oz. of milk or water twice a day. Course I was using mine in between meals if I got hungery. If your doing an all liquid diet then 3 per day should be enough. But ultimately you should discuss it with your doctor or nutitionist. Good luck with your journey!!

    surgery day

    Stock up on yogert (if you like it), sugarfree popsicles, sugarfree Jello,sugarfree fudgepops, chicken or beef broth, and whatever you like to drink. I use unjury Protein powder, vanilla,choclate,strawberry, and unflavored. Most important advise I can give you is start walking as soon as you can to help with the gas pains. And make sure you keep yourself hydrated. Good luck with everything!

    Protein Shakes

    I to like unjury protein powder. They have all sorts of flavors. I don't just do a shake, I make a smoothie. Yogert,milk,protein powder, and a little fruit in a blender. Or use the unflavored in whatever you like. When I use the unflavored in something I can tell there is something there but it's not a bad taste. I have even put unflavored in my coffee, soup, jello,and pudding. Hope this helps...
