  4. 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
  5. 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.
  6. does anyone like the dannon brand of greek yogurt. and you just eat the the greek yogurt for do you eat with something.
  7. 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.
  8. Bread product. It was too dougy or it qte it too fast. But i havent had any problem till i ate the biscuit.

  10. 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.
  11. I got my second fill today. Hope it shows sum promise. If not ima jus stay stronge. And do wat i gotta do
  12. 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
  13. 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
