i started at 341 and lost 36 pounds. On the day of surgery i weighed at 305. And today im at 270 thats 35 pounds. People post that they have lost 60 70 pounds. I though i was on track and doing gud. Am i doing this right shud i have lost more. Idk oh i had my surgery jan 3rd 2012

I had my 3rd fill today .4cc not much at all. But since my last fill march 19th i have lost 14 pounds oh yeah oh yeah. Im so happy with myself. People think this is easy and as my fellow banders know that is not the case. This is a hard road we have chosen but worth it in the end. even tho i go a long wsys to go its still exciting thinking about wats to come. S/n does anyone eat indian food thinking about venturing out. Wat a good beginner dish. Anywho i hope all is well ladies ane gents. No worries and keep on keepin on

Hey banders i have a question as usual and to to tell you guys about this mexican recipe i read about. A few months before my surgery i boughrt a spaghetti squash and im not a squash fan, so i let it sit in the frig for so long and let it go bad. Needless to say it went bad. But right i miss spaghetti and pasta so ima b brave and try again does anyone have any good recipes or tips. And then i saw a low carb recipe to make a taco shell. U basically take a 3rd a cup of cheese and put it on parchment paper and micriwave it till cheese is melted and bubbly. While on the paper from the cheese around q round object to from a taco shape. When it cools take parchment paper off and load it up with ur favorite taco ingredients.

does anyone like the dannon brand of greek yogurt. and you just eat the the greek yogurt for do you eat with something.

Whats kinds of things did u guys eat once u could eat solids. Jus want sum meal ideas. And wats good to eat wen craving something sweet. I mean i do pretty well now with meals but other suggestions wud b great. The other day i made a meat crust pizza and it was awsome. Made like a regular pizza but instead as bread crust i used sausage and ground lean turkey as my crust. Full of protein. If ur a pizza lover like my self its a great substitue.

Bread product. It was too dougy or it qte it too fast. But i havent had any problem till i ate the biscuit.

I had my 2nd fill on monday. And today i tried jus a little piece of a biscuit and it got stuck. And that served me right cause i knew that i wasnt supposed b eating it even if it was a tiny piece. Showed me a hard lesson. Being stuck is the worst feeling i ever had. OMG!!!!! I think understand wat sliming is. But can sum1 explain wat it is and wat PB is. How do you really now your in the green zone wat does that feel like.

I got my second fill today. Hope it shows sum promise. If not ima jus stay stronge. And do wat i gotta do

I really wanna thank everyone for their feedback. It really helped my spirits. It means a lot to know that u guys lift me up when im feeling low. Thank u qll so so much

It really sucks to say this out loud put i have to be real wit myself. Im starting to make bad choices. Ive been eating things that i know that i shouldnt. Im not make excuses because even wen im making bad choices, im telling myself you not suppose to b doing this. What is wrong with me im only 3months out and feel like i failing. I jus spoke with my brother about my current situation with my food choices. And he gave me the hard truth and the truth hurts i wanted to cry. Well wen we got off the phone i started crying. I just feel so weak. I need to get myself together and get my mind right. Where do i begin u know? This is harder than i ever thought it would b. by the grace of God i havent gained any weight but havent lost any for like 2 or 3 wks. I got dreams i have goals and its on me to reach them. I gotta do better i jus have to. LORD give me strength to do wat i need to do to achieve my goals. And it dont help that i dont feel any restriction. No more accuses. Put up or shut up. Thanks for letting me vent folks

My girlfriend gave me a hug and said wow my hands can touch now. I felr like a million bucks wen she said that. Everyone is noticing me getting smaller its a great feelin. But i dont wanna get ahead of myself. I still have a long road and lots if learning. I have lot pre op and post op 54 pounds. I wanna loose a liittle ova 100 pounds. I wanna know wat it feels like to have a 1 as the beginning of my weight. Dont think ive seen that since grade school. Well good luck everyone , stay stronge and remember if u fall jus pick urself up and try again.

Can eat too fast cause me to stay hungry more often. I had my first fill feb6th and still feel the same for the most part

I also had my first fill feb 6th. And I feel the same as I did b4 I got a fil. I recieved 4cc. I get hungry its seems like hour and half to 2hr later, if not sooner. Ima give it a full two wks before I request another fill. But I know I will ask for one., I hate being hungry all the time cud

Wat kinds are ur faves. I wanna try em

plus im not suppose to eat breads for six most. i guess every doctor is different

what other choices well healthy wise do they have. when im able i wanna try it

so wats kinds of things are you eating now. im one mone post op so still on just proteins

do you recommend lean cuisine meals for a healthy food option. something good for lunch and dinner maybe

had my first fill today 4cc. can a anyone tell me how they felt after their first fill. what kinds soup did you eat and did it fill you up. i applebees and got the endless soup and salad. is didnt eat the salad but had three bowls of tomato soup. is that wrong. i think maybe because it was liquids. i jus wanna know how you felt afterwards with hunger and fullness. i hope its just because it was liquides. ttyl xoxo

hey i was wondering if anyone still ate pizza. cause i am so craving pizza right now and i know it not the best thing for me or my band. if you do eat pizza does anyone have trouble eating it. and does anyone have any healthy recipes or good ideas for the pizza to not get stuck. does anyone have any recipes for making lettuce wraps. thanks for the ideas folks.
