    Band Friendly travel foods

    I have a 10 hour road trip coming up and I'm worried about what I will eat while in the car. I dont eat at fast food places because there is nothing there I can really eat without PB'ing or vomiting. What kind of foods/munchies would you suggest to take in the car. (I just got home from an 8 hour road trip and have to leave again in a few days for a 10 hour trip, while on the 8 hour trip, I did not eat the whole way there or back because my family wanted fast food, and there was nothing that I knew I could eat.) I cannot eat chicken, grapes, or any bread products. I know I can eat string cheese, but need more than that for 10 hours....HELP

    lapband failure.

    There is no failure unless you give up! Don't be embarassed, go back to your doctor, get a fill and start the day new. Every day is an opportunity to start over and renew your commitment to losing. I'm having to do this myself as I hit my 100 lb loss and have sat at this plateau now for sevearl months. I admit, I havent been following my diet plan like I should but I know that tomorrow is a new day and plan to start fresh. No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow your progress, you're still way ahead of everyone that isn't trying!!!

    chicken/peppers

    Sounds delicious, but there is no way I can eat chicken. There is very little meat that i can actually eat. I usually have Tuna or ground turkey, thats the extent of meat that I can handle..some days I wonder if I'm too tight, but other days I feel like I could eat a horse!

    What happened to the private messages?

    Its still happening....gone again! Thanks for all your hard work on this....it doesnt seem to like me right now
  6. I cant send private messages UGH

  7. I have been having a conversation through private messages and when I went to reply, it disappeared and hasnt been back. I dont want this person to think I just stopped talking to him. I cant even go to his profile and click the "send Message" button anymore....If its a feature thats been removed...Pleae bring it back because people arent always on at the same time to be able to talk.

    Banded 1 yr and have it removed!!

    PLEASE PLEASE reseach the sleeve FULLY before you go under the knife again. I have a band, my dad had the sleeve. I hhave had my band for almost a year and have lost 75lbs. I feel like I'm losing slow, but when I look at the big picture, I'm happy with where I'm at. BUT, my dad had the sleeve in May of this year, has had complication after complication resulting in MILLIONS of dollars of hospital bills (He has been in the hospital 4 times due to complications, one time was over 4 months in there! and just got re-admitted again 2 days ago, and was told he will be in there until after New Years!) I'm not going to bad mouth the sleeve, but I just hope and pray that you completely and totally research it before you go under the knife again. Take the "rare complications" they tell you about seriously, because once you have it done, there is NO GOING BACK!!! If I could turn back time, I would NEVER allow my dad to get the sleeve. I fear this is going to kill him from all the complications...and hes still not in the clear yet.

    Pb???

    for me....I call PB'ing Phelgm bomb....cause its like you vomit a slime ball. It happens to me when I eat too fast or the wrong foods. I had alot of issues with my band being tight and would PB alot, but I had some removed and doing MUCH better now

    My Bump In The Road...

    I have not had a fill since the end of June, and all of a sudden I was too tight. I was told it could be stress. I went in yesterday and had 1/2 cc removed and I feel SO much better. I fought it for 2 months, thinking it would get better again, but no luck, so I had finally decided that it was time to have some removed. I agree, the weight loss is great, but the effects of acid, PB'ing, and being miserable just arent worth it! (I will be banded a year in December and have lost 75lbs)
  14. You can try Mio....Its a liquid that you add to water. Many different flavors and 0 calories. Personally I like the Arizona green tea with Ginsing & Honey. I drink the sugar free, so its 0 calories. You can also add some lemon, lime, strawberries, or whatever fruit you like to your water and let it sit overnight for a nice light flavor. personally, I'm not a fan of water, but I do drink alot of green tea. Another option would be, a soda stream machine. You control the amount of carbonation and make your own sodas. You can get the flavors you like without the high carbonation levels that make you feel miserable
