  2. I put in tons of time researching the band back in 2008 with my first band... I'm just sorry I put in more research on the bypass i could have possibly saved having 3 surgeries myself . I read and witnessed so many botched bypasses it scared me.
  3. Stuck at 192 I have faith I hate stalls. ...
  4. I do crave sweet too. .. I am satisfied with a "Oh yeah" Protein Bar or a vegan oatmeal cookie these all have sugar but only like 4-6 grams and really biv only need one or two bites and I'm good. My nemesis was chocolate, I always ate very healthy made good choices but had a weakness for chocolate. .I look for natural sugar or organic sugar in my sweets. For popsicle I eat a brand by fresh and easy that has low sugar or I buy "so delicious" soy almond milk mini ice cream sandwich. I spend a little more $$ for these brands. Then I don't eat them often.
  5. You do what's right for you, I don't touch. the stuff and never will...ps sucralose is not the bad one Aspartame and Asculefame are poison. Why would you go through this type surgery and then eat poison? Did you know that there are 92 side effects of Aspartame one is death? Are you conflicted about that? Sorry I'm sure i will either piss you off or someone else that reads it. I am politically direct not politically correct.. I just don't understand
