  5. I eat oatmeal every morning...any diet or food plan has you eat at least three times a day...why are you not eating breakfast? even a shake would be good.
  6. walmart carries a lot of protient shakes with difference protein and cal levels I have several different ones just to get all the stuff if I need it for whatever reason. Low blood sugar makes you dizzy and shake so that could be it.
  7. I had gone to WW a few times so just after I got the band I Used there methoid modified of course. I then graduated to the band life and tracking it and it works..all good eating health plans are the same so work what gives u the most support to keep you forcus on your goal.

  14. call your insurance company and ask who to go to or your private doctor
  15. wow I couldn't do it but I am so glad you did....tell your mom "shame on you" for bring candy and stuff the house from all of us lol

  17. the band is not that easy to injur or we would all have hurt it by now...d idnt your doctor let you see one and hold it? if not ask to see one next time so u can judge it better. Stuck issue happens all the time to all of us then we remeber to stick to the rules...i ts just part of the proccess
  18. go to the chat room anytime and ask away.
  19. start making your appointments after work, wait the 90 for surgery and hope there insurance will cover it or some anyway...job are hard to find now be very careful.
  20. size of the bite probably make it the size of your finger nail...and eat as slow as possible, that should help
  21. wow where did your tummy go?????? what a great job
  22. the body holds onto water differently each day...I lost 3 lbs one day and gain it back the next. I weight daily and market on my calendar and I can see a pattern with ups and down. I get excited about the lowest weight that shows up no matter when that is. One pound????really!!!! calm down it comes when it comes just keep up the good work.
  23. call insurance comp. and ask them also.
  24. it the devil who makes JUNK what are you doing near cookies? lol I cant have them around or anything that its not diet related...I cant be trusted with junk..all. temptations are the devil's way to get you to make the wrong chocies in all of life so you need to watch for him. No more eating for fun its all about health now if its fun food its a slider except bread lol
