    Readyforachange*** got a reaction from Lapbandster in Questions About Being Stuck!   
    Got stuck for the first time today and it was horrible, I didn't know what to do I think I even paniced a little. Felt like I wanted to throw up but I couldn't , felt like I was able to swollow but I couldn't. It was a bad experiance and I never want it to happen again. For now on when I'm done eating my jaws will be sore.

    All of them, I tried a couple of different ones. Just couldn't do it.
    I used the sugar free Carnation Breakfast.

    I have found the Atkins Advantage shakes to be the best for me. They have a variety of flavors and it's easy, no blending!!! To each their own but I have one every morning for breakfast and they are awesome!!!!!!!!!

    The choice is yours, I feel your pain, I had the bypass and gained all but 40 pounds back, just had the lap band at 270 pounds, however when o was going through the approval process, I realized that band or no band that this body of MINE is MY RESPONSIBILITY! From March 3 til my final appt. With my surgeon I demanded from myself to start eating healthy, and to SAVE MY OWN LIFE! I am happy to report that I went from 291 to 271 in less than 2 months and this was prior to my pre op diet for the lap band. I stopped fast food, eating out, and did 5 servings of fruit and 4 veggies a day, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU MUST GO BACK TO THE BASICS, LEAN PROTEIN FIRST! From my experience Me and my first surgery failed each other, you have to take responsibility for why you are where you are! If we that have gained weight back be honest our habits drastically changed from when we first lost the weight! Change your habits, if your band is now positioned correctly, go get your fills and save your life! I wish you luck, YOU CAN DO IT!
