  4. HI, I LIVE IN LAKEWOOD NJ AND I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE ON HERE WAS FROM AROUND THERE BECAUSE I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A GET TOGETHER!!! I THINK IT WOULD BE GREAT SUPPORT AND LOTS OF FUN TO SHARE OUR STORIES AND JOURNEYS!
  5. Good to know I am not the only one out there! I did the lapband because I needed something to force me to stay on a diet and I was ready for that change. But now I keep thinking how am I supposed to be careful with what I eat for the next 3 weeks(till I get my fill) if I wasnt succesfull on a regular diet!

  11. Hey so i lost 15 pounds my first week and even though i know i should be ecstatic about it, (because i have never lost that much weight in one week) im feeling very stressed! I have two little kids and lately i dont have as much energy. I have been living on around 300/350 calories a day. Its really hard when i prepare delicious food for my kids and i start thinking i wont be able to have these foods for a long long time, if ever! Sorry im just venting because it makes me feel better lol!
  12. Thanks everyone for the awesome ideas! I spoke to my doc about doing soups and they said that's fine, so I made myself delicious soups with beans and lentils ect.. and pureed them! And I am also going to make sure to take multi vitamans! Thanks again for the ideas!
  13. Try having soups with vegtables in it. Just make sure they are soft and chew them down very well! anything that is a little different is exciting lol!
