Hey yall, So since surgery, what are your food likes and dislikes. I am looking for some new and exciting stuff!

I am only down 35 pounds. I am beyond frustraited. Just feel like crying!

I am so very frustrated. Was banded 10/09/2012 and am only down 38 pounds. Nut said don't count calories. I have had 2 fills. I am so so so frustrated! Any suggestions! Seems like I just can not get the hang of this and I want to so bad! I am exercising. Cardio 3 or 4 times a week. No gym access right now so I am walking. Any help would be graciously appreciated!

so, did anyone get a tag, bracelet or necklace? they gave me a pamphlet in my surgery packet. if you got one, what did you put on it?

Does anyone have a good protein bar they like?

check out www.baratricfoodie.com she has some amazing recipes!

So my NUT said she does not want me counting calories. That made my jaw drop! Maybe I am old school, but I thought that was to help me loose weight. I am in shock. Are you counting calories?

My insurance required just the basics. My dr office is an hour away. They have meetings once a month but I can never leave work early enough to get there.

Happy dance! Congrats!

I do. Small plastic spork and spoon. Also use divided plate so I know my meat, veg and fat portions

So my dr. Education before band was crap. Been learning more from here than I did there. I am 3 months post op. lost 28 pounds. But I KNOW I am eating the wrong stuff. Pretty sure nachos are not on the approved list. But they go down fine. I have had 1 fill and am at 4.5 cc. So what should my meals look like? I drink a protein shake for breakfast because I am so tight until around 9am. Lunch some days chicken salad on crackers, or a lunchable. Dinner, out some days chili or nachos, at home chicken in the crockpot. Snacks just in the evenings. Anything chocolate I can get my hands on. Lots of water and coffee during the day. What am I supposed to be eating? What does a menu at this point look like? Help

Hey all.. So I am looking for some new dvd's. I LOVE to dance. So anything dancey is a good option. Anyone have any fun suggestions?

Whelp, guess I will have to stick with coffee

It's all the time the last few days

It comes in a can. So does that mean carbonated?
