Anyone still doing Atkins or southbeach???

Hey ladies, there is now a liquid version of metformin call riomet! I use it now caz I can't swallow those giant pills either

Thanks ladies! On my way to the gym now for my first training session! Wish me luck!

Thanks ladies I will add you both! I need guidance!!

K, I've been at a plateau for 3 weeks now! I need to see some menus of people that have been really successful. Any of you of there on myfitnesspal and log in daily??

My dr does it at no additional charge caz it is still in clinical trial

I paid nothing for my plication 6 weeks ago...my dr is dr Adam smith in ft worth )

Isn't 1-800-get-thin the doctors that are being sued for all those deaths??!!! I watched it on 20/20 or dateline

Thanks for all the encouragement ladies! I love this site!!

Think twice a week for now is good enough? And of course cardio on off days!!

Awesome! Thanks! And congrats on it loss, thats amazing! I don't know why I think I'm gonna gain weight! I think as long as I'm eating my 1200 cals or less a day I HAVE to lose!

Ok, here's the deal. I'm 7weeks post op and down 23lbs. I've hot a plateau so it's time to start exercising. I know cardio is a MUST, but what about weight training? Im scared I'm gonna gain weight! Are there any banders out there that weight train and have lost a significant amount of weight??

I had it April 2! Down 23lbs in 7 weeks. I wouldn't have done it any other way, even without being filled u have restriction )

Wow! You rate REALLY healthy! No wonder I'm not losing lol! Are you on myfitnesspal?? Or do u not bother counting cals? Are u in ur green zone?

Oh, and thanks )

Ok I'm guessing my problem is I'm eating too many carbs. I know better than to eat carbs! I guess I just figured if I was eating less of things I would still lose, but this dang pcos screws up everything! I have to remember I'm different from others. Can u give me an example of what one of ur days looks like?? Are you Atkins style or more like south beach?

I get all confused with this calorie crud too! I hate counting calories, but when my weightloss slows down I automatically think I'm eating too much! After all the years of dieting I'm just tired! Even when I have 1100 cals a day I think it's too much and that's just crazy!!

I've been really bad about taking my vitamins! But I like the whole not over thinking it thing! I get too hung up on counting every calorie!!! It get so frustrating

I'm gonna call the hospital today and see if I can negotiate at all! Wish me luck

That is the problem! When my husband checked me in he gave them my insurance card even tough the receptionist said that she wasn't sure if I even needed to check in caz sometimes dr smith takes care of it! So now that is was run under my insurance I'm screwed! If we would have just paid out of pocket it would have been half that!!! Ugh! I'm so pissed and don't know what to do ((

Question though, is it best to call a negotiate with the hospital or insurance company about my bill??
