hmm sounds interesting

It is ok to feel nervous, but its ok, once the surgury is done and you are out of the hospital you will feel exicted =)

It is ok to be nervous, but that nervousness will turn into excitement once you get start on your lap band journey, good luck!

Congratulations, and all the best!

Congratulations!!!! It is definitely a great feeling to get under 200. With dedication nothing is impossible. Good luck on the rest of your lap band journey.

I definitely think you should find a new lap band doctor, having a good doctor gives you reinsurance and the knowledge you need to get through certain obstacles. As for the slight weight gain, everyone hits a plateau sometime during their lap band journey, the only way to continue on your journey is to push through and continue trying. I wish you all the best, good luck!

Yea protien shakes does not taste that good but unjury is the lesser of too evils it tastes slightly better lol

I think moderation is the key, I dont think you should eat 1000-1200 calories a day and then on your cheat day double or triple that, I dont find that to be good for your body at all

I completely agree with morel girl, calcium citrate all the way!

That looks reminiscent of what I use to eat, prior to the sugery I always thought what I ate was a bit above "normal" now I realize, just how much "food" I use to eat lol

1200 calories is really good, it seems like you are getting all of your daily nutritional needs, I suggest taking a multivitamen to strenghten the body a bit more

I think you can drink it once in a while but pop is acidic and when I drink it I sometimes a bloated feeling.

I love ice cream and patato chips and that is why I cannot have any in my house, I do not want to start eating it..

I think you can lose weight without exercising but your body will look more propitionate if you exercise too.

definitely squats, it makes your bum look bigger and more toned, its a win win
