I hear you and we all have been through some ruff spots but hang in there i am trying to take my own advice

I would recomend that you tell people around you because one day you might have a serious stick and then you will need the support I wasnt going to tell anybody either because they all want to give the judgment but i did and i got it from a few that said they where just concerned because of the danger anyways i decided screw that and i tell everyone that it comes up with and if they want to judge they are just jealous because i am loosing weight and they are not getting healthy

I would love some easy calorie free or atleast low cal sweets recipes that dont require a lot of time or trouble

BUT HERES ONE THAT I MAKE

I take water chicken stock and a meat either beef or chicken bring to a boil and add barley simmer for 40 min. season with everything in the cupboard I call it scotch broth love it and filling

well my doctor freaked out on me when i veered of the liquide diet before i was suppose to and i left his office in tears but thats in the past and follow everything he says to a T now

I would say go for the fill my band acts like yours and with 2 fills i had to go in and have a unfill so now my doc fills me a tiney bit every 2 weeks this fill i just had is acting like you say yours is but i believe that only the fills will make the band work and its trial and error until you hit that green zone so i m not giving up on fills evan though like youy i feel miserable at times when i eat and other times i dont but i have to eat super slow yesterday yogart got stuck for goodness sakes

I wish my fill journey was like yours i never know if the fill is right until a couplke days later I m in pain the water always goes right down it all good until I try food

I think FOOD comercials should be banned all of them when I see a pizza commercial I want to pick up the phone and order everytime I usually flip the channel when they come on one day I flipped the station and everyone i flipped to had yummy food on them

lol poor baby

I went through what your going through and when I had a unfill I felt like a new person and now I feel like I need another fill e3ach person is different w/ thye band but you are not doing yourself right if your sliming and all that go get a unfill and go slow I know its hard cuz since my unfill I have gained 3 pounds but I was so dehydrated when I went in for my unfill that I m not worried about it I will loose it and feel good it will just take longer than I wanted but I have to remember this is a change for life so I will work it and hope my sweet spot comes soon good luck to you

so sorry for you

been there done that its a great feeling when your excersise partner who is small and healthy says you want to keep going and you say yes and are happy about it

I also have been warned of this

tell us what it really taste like and how much do you drink at a time?

I too started this so I could climb the stairs to my room and go up them any time i wanted not just at night to go to bed sometimes i would sponge bath downstairs to avoid the damn stairs i still have a hard time with them but the more i loose the easier they get i dont care if i am thin i just want to be able to run up the stairs whenever i want to and not dred doing it

light laughing cow cheese wedges,pumkin souffle, barley and beef or chicken stock

if I took a picture of mine and showed it to u you would be happy to have your little loose skin dont let it bother you wear it like a metal of honor

I made tofu pizza and it was yummy but kinda a pain to cook the tofu and put it all together I cant tolorate bread get stuck for some reason does any body have a good pizza recipe without crust or crust made out of something besides bread thats the thing i miss most is pizza //yes i was a pizza addict lol

diet pills what the heck so you dont go to ur LB doc for your fills you go to a reg md? i M CONFUSED?

do you think that people who have to get a unfill have problems getting back the restriction because i had to have a total unfill in the ER and went back in for a fill a week later and nothing i have no restriction so now i m scared something is wrong because i could eat a horse i m having a hard time using only will power can some people please give me their thoughts

JUST WONDERING DOES EVERYONE FINELY HIT THAT SWEET SPOT AND KNOWING EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT I WONDER HOW MANY FILLS BEFORE I WILL BE THERE

whats the calories per serving?

it will work not like bypass much harder cuz you have to use will power until you hit the green zone i guess i haven't been there yet but only been banded since Nov. so I am hoping it will come soon

I got stuck on a ibprofin 800 and that was enough for me I went on oral liquide meds

are you kidding 18 pounds is great congrats I know how hard it is when the scale doesn't move but whats harder for me is having no restriction hungry all the time but I m not going to let it make me eat I will keep praying for green

just do what the doc tells you and do it by the book or you might be sorry
