Thanks for sharing, wishing you all the best

So very true!!!

Thank you!!

Never posted picture before but here goes, progress so far

Thank you for your responses, I am on my elliptical now trying to work through this. Oh and I was feeling all alone thank you

I have had lapband for 16 months I am 27 pounds from goal!! Here is my problem: I am at the point I have been at so many times as a yoyo dieter. Self sabotage :-( in the past I just would have eaten mega amounts of food. Thanks to my band I can't do that, but the urge is still there. I am well aware of how to get around band with sliders but I don't want to go there I really don't . Just having a really hard time right now.

I am 15month out and it still sensitive at time but very few now, just give it time and good luck

I have the fitbit flex and I love it!!!! It is just a expensive pedometer unless you use it to push you to walk more and become friends with others and compete with them and let them push you as well. I have had mine since July as a birthday present....best present ever and it syncs with my fitnesspal!!!

Wow amazing job, how long did it take you to lose 125#'s??

Congrats on the bandiversary!! How much have you lost?

This is embarrassing but I hope it will help someone. When weighting my weight would fluctuate up and down during the same weight in get off the scale and get back on and it would be different was driving me crazy, lat week I used the as seen on TV spin pedi and took dead skin off my feet since the consistant weights! Help with the emotional what's going on??? Hope this helps someone else as well!!!

Not in Houston but about 90 miles away banned 7/18/12. When were u banded?

Walking.. Slowly then keep increasing and challenging yourself

My treadmill died today, I need another what is the best lasting treadmill??

broth has Alot of sodium offset with Water, water and more water

Congratulations!!

I am about 6 1/2 months out and I've lost 123 pounds.

That is amazing!!!!!

Enjoy the not really feeling hungry, your appetite will return then it is about controlling it till u get good restriction from the band after fills....no I've had a few loose stools nothing like that...good luck

Yes some loose stools just advance diet yesterday oatmeal, cottage cheese, mashed potatoes just kept potions small.. Felt good to have spoon in my hand again after all the liquids pre and post op

KayKay... My experience is about identical to yours, banded 7/18 now my mornings r good but by the evening I am so so tired.. Trying to enjoy the journey!! Have a great day!!!

Hey everyone' date='

Last night while eating out @ outback, I was discussing the struggles I went thru in beginning w/ fiancée. How it was so hard having to eliminate eating the dishes I loved at famous restaurants and how I put my imagination and cooking skills together and figured out how to make them myself at home, but make it with ingredients I know will pass and stay down. So she said why not share that info with others on board.DUH... glad she's got some smarts left... so, here I am willing to share Some of my tricks to all whom are interested, Best way I think this can work is to tell me the restaurant(s) and the dish you're no longer able to eat now, I'll check my data base and happily share either original way to prepare for friends or Family

or modified for yourself. So if you would like please either ask here on posting or send private message. Not saying I have EVERY RESTAURANTS recipes, BUT MAJORITY OF MOST POPULAR PLACES.

hope I can help!
