So far the protein shakes, jello and popsicles are okay. I haven't been able to shake my headache yet though. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

What should I buy other than protein shakes to get me through this tough week ahead?

sleevedprincess, I'm so glad! Hopefully we can linkup and check up on one another after surgery! Armygalbonnie, Please keep me posted!

Been really down since getting another unfill and them wanted to do the scope. 18th will be my 2nd year w band and I'm still struggling. Real sad. Add to my crazy schedule and I know I'm gaining. Very frustrated. The can't seem to figure out if my menestral cycle is reason for having to get a unfil3-4 weeks out or if I have developed some kind of acid reflux. I've lost around 60-65 pounds still have 40-45 after two years. I am so down.;( and scared .

I normally just ask is there a lot in there. They normally don't say until the unfills

Mis73, when I get a fill I'm fine for 3-4 weeks then somehow i need a unfill and can't get anything down. I think it's my period cycles. They think I may have a sensitive stomach. Since no one is sure they want to do a scope.

How is the sleeve? How long are you under? How invasive was that? I just can't image doing everything all over and paying again:( thanks for your input;)

I've seesawed back and forth after fills for the last year trying desperately to find my green zone . With having such a sensitive stomach, fills complicate my progress. I've gained and lost my last ten pounds atleast four times now and I'm so frustrated! I have 34 pounds to lose to my goal and it feel like 340! In October it will be two years til my Bandaversary , this is such a rolrollercoaster and I'm feeling discouraged.

I've been going back and forth like 3 or 4 months. I work out only 2xs a week. I do not weigh my food but I eat weight watchers lunches and others around 300 cal, my largest meal is dinner. I don't measure in a cup but I measure by hand as the nurse showed me. Should I purchase a food scale?

I have a coworker that brings the most delicious looking smoothies to work. I wondered if any banders have tried them. I have a hard time with certain fruits and thought this mind be a great way to also get them back in my diet and also try some different protein shake ideas. I've been drinking store bought Premiere for a year and a half now. I need a change.

I have a real sensitive stomach. I've had lap band over a year but I find the more fluid I have my experiences after my fills are always different. My doc says liquids three days, fourth and fifth day mushies. But my stomach is growling loud and I'm hungry. So far it's water and premiere protein shakes. any suggestions?
