  1. I struggle with the same thing I have found ways of getting my sugar fix. We at all a work in progress.
  2. Oh that makes me feel normal! Thanks for sharing!
  3. I was banded 9 May and if I'm hungry I get left shoulder pain and if i eat to much I get left shoulder pain. I know this sounds weird but that is my cue either way.
  4. So true I set myself back 3 months! Uggg and I hate it!
  5. Ate to much on Friday, pushed myself instead of listening to my body. I have pain under my ribs, a lump in my throat and no energy. I feel like I did one week after surgery. Of course I have nobody to blame but myself, but wondering if this is normal 48 hours later. I have had very little to eat this weekend, a protein shake and some tofu, mainly because I'm not hungry and it hurts to eat. Should I call my Dr. Tomorrow or is this just normal punishment for my bad behavior?
  6. Jim how long have you been banded? Head hunger is a huge struggle for me. Thanks for your feedback
  7. Plant fusion, Arbonnes two of my favorite vegan protein powders
  8. Google tofu salad recipes the possibilities are endless. I use vegan Mayo, and season as if it was real Egg salad or tuna salad or chicken salad. Thes best advice I can give is the super firm Tofu works the best
  9. Local Market in DC area My Organic Market. Can probably find similar products at Whole Foods or your local organic market or Co op
  10. Lots of different homemade tofu salads, or sometimes premade tofu salads from MOMS. Fresh greens beans and veges from local farmers. Try to stay away from super processed vegan foods. I average about 1000k per day 70 grams of protein
  11. Tofu salads google many recipes out here
  12. Wow u r so lucky I feel my port 24 / 7! It protrudes out of my belly I have to be careful not to bump my belly on my desk at work or I see stars! I'm 5 weeks post op and that has been my biggest issue is port site pain. Mine is on the right below my ribs. Good luck to u. My first fillis 6/23
  13. I m 3 weeks post today. I saw my Dr yesterday because of port pain. He reminded me that my port is attached to my muscle and I appear to be a little more sensitive than others. He acknowledged that the area is inflamed but no sign of infection and told me that I could take children's liquid motion o get the inflammation down, stressing to take it with food. I went home took my my yummy grape flavored Motrin and iced my belly and I definitely feel better today. I do wonder if I will always feel my port, I hope not.
  14. I have 5. 3 look like dots one near belly button biggest one is port site on my rt. belly
  15. I have the body bugg and love it...it is pricey
