I prefer Unjury!!

Well, I am post op day 5 and down 10 pounds. I was absolutely thrilled. I know some of the loss is Water loss, but it gives me the confidence that I can do this. Another milestone today, went and got groceries. For a year or more my ritual has been that after I get groceries, make a run through McDonalds. NOT today!! Drove right by !! This is the first of many more milestones to come. Soooo excited!!

I been eating junk food all day thinking it's okay soon I will have WLS wrong attitude to have
I'm ready to start making a life change before I get my lap band.
Week 1 take away chips for EVER
Week 2 take away soda for EVER
Week 3 etc. By doing it this way I get myself mentally ready, so the food withdrawal won't be hard on me, yes I'm addicted to food.
Going to start working out 30 min every day and take in 64oz of Water.
I was taking in more than 2500 cal a day I will cut it down to 1500 cal.
This will start Aug. 5, 2012 I will give weekly reports on my progress
Some of you may wonder if I can do this why have WLS
I need help controlling hunger and portion size.
WE WILL REACH OUR GOALS TOGETHER HAPPY WEIGHT LOSS!!!!

So I'm back on liquids for a couple days after my first fill and i just tried a sample unjury chocolate shake packet they gave me before surgery.
And I wish I would have tried it before!!! Like when I was on my 4 weeks of liquids...because it was GREAT!
So I'm just letting you know, if ur on liquids.... Try it!!! I think u can only get it online.
Yummmmm-o!

To the new people - Angie, Sibley and Roja - welcome to the website. This is a great place and a great place to find support. All three of you sound like you have done well on your pre-op diet and this week/next week is your big days. Woo Hoo...
I have been banded a year and I feel great. somehwere out there is 100 pounds that I have lost - I have about 40 more to go. I love/hate my band, but that is the same with anything in life. Sure, I miss certain foods that I can no longer have, but I sure don't miss that 100 pounds of blubber ! Good luck to all three of you - stay in touch and let us know how you are doing.
About the Protein shakes.. we all feel your pain. Just keep looking for one YOU like. You won't have to drink them all the time. I have about 1 or 2 a week and then for 1 day following a fill - It does take time ( and you will waste a bunch) but hopefully you will find one you actually like.
Have a great week and welcome to the family !

I'm lovin the Unjury as well. Mixed the vanilla powder with unsweetened frozen fruit, this stuff is tasty!

I use unjury. Love chocolate splendor. Also vanilla mixes with skim mill and 1 Tbsp pistachio pudding mix. Or a scoop of vanilla, 1 c trop 50 oj and some frozen strawberries and ice. Super good!!

Amen!! Love Philippians 4:13. It is the verse I'm relying on when I have my banding in 2 weeks!

Everything you go through Is and Always will be Temporary!! Subject to Change, Depending on How You Look At the Situation!!!
If You have Belief and have Faith that Your Issue is Not Spiritual but Carnal: Worldly!!
Then You Know that You Need to Renew Your Mind Your Thinking!!!
Once You see the Situation as Worldly Not the Life You Want Then You Change It!!!
Philippians 4:13: I can Do All Things Through Christ Which Strengthens Me!!!
