  1. I subscribe to Beachbody on demand. They have such a wide variety of programs. I’m currently doing Liift4 it has weights, cardio and abs and is only 4 days a week. I’m loving it. Just started a second round.

  4. My dr recommends centrum chewable or the old school flintstone chewables
  5. So I’m feeling like I constantly have a bubble in my throat. Am I alone? Is it just because a little liquid makes me full? I had a lap band removed too, could that be it?

  7. Don’t forget that our bodies are literally starving even though we don’t feel the hunger that intese. Our caloric intake is so low it’s expected to be low energy. I’m 9 days post op and have been pretty lazy.
  8. I’m 8 days post op and am trying to get 2 premier protein shakes in each day and as close to 64 oz of water. It’s harder than I ever imagined to get that little in me lol most days I come up about 8 oz shy of my water goal and get at least 1 1/2 shakes in. It’s over 100 degrees here so I’m very concerned with dehydration.

  11. That's amazing!! Congrats!
  12. I was banded tuesday. I'm drinking only clear liquids till tomorrow. I was able to lie on my side a little when I put a pillow under my stomach and I had to wear the binder. If you're taking the pain killers that is probably why you're so tired. I stopped taking them and am only on Tylenol. Not to mention the anesthesia sometimes lingers in our system and keeps us feeling drowsy.
  13. Glad you're doing so great! I'm feeling better as the day goes on.
  14. Posting for my fellow sept bandsters. Had my surgery yesterday. I was surprisingly calm going in. Last thing I remember before waking up in recovery is looking at the lights wondering if the anesthesia is gonna kick in. Lol. I was in recovery for over three hours. I just couldn't wake up. I threw up twice from the ice chips and Water. I think the anesthesia and pain killers make me nauseous. The pain is bearable today but I didn't sleep well last night. I couldn't get comfortable and I kept having to go pee. The abdominal binder is very helpful, so wear it! I was able to get the acid blocker pill and some Advil down. That was a relief I was afraid they were going to get stuck. I'm not feeling hungry at all. I've been drinking mostly water but have had some Vitamin water zero and a little Protein water. I'm thinking some warm broth might be nice soon.
