  1. Hey guys I think I'm doin good really going all in on this lap band Change of life I had my surgery September 7th and now I'm at -62lbs I'm really workin hard on getting to the 100lb mark I've noticed a huge change, clothes, belts..etc but most of all the way I eat!!! This was the best Change of lifestyle I ever made!! Thanks for the support!!!!!!!
  2. Thank you!!!!!!! I think it was just the scare of messing up so early in my process, the fact of the matter I only ate chicken until I felt full and didn't have any rice, did have a few veggies but at the end of the meal, my to go box got most of it!!!! I really appreciate the support on this site I'm a newbie for reals and it's a learning process. Just a lot of the suff I read is scary sometimes.......I'd consider myself a tough guy, but best believe my booth was the closest to the restrooms just in case!!! Lol thanks again guys....
  3. Anyone from Dallas on here???

    Day 3 Of Solid Foods

    I still feel guilty for it didn't eat any rice though just a few pieces of chicken rice just came with the meal.....
  5. Today is day 3 of solids, so on my first day of solid food I had eggs, I know this is something that I maybe could have had on soft foods but I'm either scared or nervous of getting too full or throwing up!!! Well today my fam and I were running around and they got hungry I wanted to wait and come home to eat but just as the non lap band needers that they are they want to go out and eat. So they decided on pei Wei and I love me some Asian food so without major hesitation I agreed to take them since they have been hostage to my preop diets and now it's week 4!! So tell me if I messed up please!!! I don't feel I did but let me tell ya what I ordered, got the orange peel chicken and brown rice!! I actually only had about 4 small pieces of chicken off the plate and after chewing for so long I felt full. I also ate a few of the veggies that came with it...... I'm down a total of 42lbs I just want to keep losing and do right!!!!
  6. Right on!!!!! I just got banded on 9/7 and I feel like I lost more wght well at least quicker when I was on my preop diet...I'm up to 42lbs lost and this is my third week of being banded... Sometimes I wanna double check to see if I can even feel the port lolol or if my dr just psyched me out into thinking I was banded lolol
  7. Congrats!!!! Is that pre op and post op combined or just after being banded???! That's great either way keep up the good work and you'll be at the 75 in no time
