  1. I just saw protein freezer pops on amazon. All I could tell is 16 gms. I also found dill pickle pops! Think I have too much time on my hands. Oh one more thing PB2 crackers!
  2. I apologize if I came across rude to anyone it was not my intent. I just want everyone to be supportive and if we have nothing of value to add we should not post anything. I have Definately at some point benefited from everyone of you. Have a great week!
  3. I saw fergie on the Ellen show and sheis coming out with low calorie flavored vodka sorry several flavors.
  4. She was back on the talk yesterday day for first time Ina while. To me she should very thin and Cheryl had her hand behind Sharon as she walked up the step to the talk table. Sure hope everything is ok with her.
  5. That is weird. I believe you but really said bypass on site I saw. I wonder where she has been lately. Hope all is ok.
  6. I saw on line this morning that Sharon Osbourne had bypass not the band.
  7. Maddy do you really have to have the last word? Not saying you guys present yourselves a gang but you do as a click. Why can't you just let Sandy find the info she is looking for? I think we all are adults. Let's behave that way.
  8. Hey Thoma, You should be proud of what you have done so far. Besides lecturing you did the Dr give you any advice? Have you seen a nutrionist.? If are not comfortable with doctor maybe you should find another. You should not stay overfilled. My advice is to know how much you are allowed to eat and measure and track all your food. Eat slow and chew alot. Are you doing all this? Dont give up because someone is a jerk. You have done so well and you deserve to be succussful. I am here for support if you need it. Feel free to message me. Helen
  9. Everyone goes through this. I keep a list of foods I have problems with so not to happen again. I commend then you shared with us and that you are back up on that horse. Even with a sore bumm. Best of Luck.
  10. I am on same as you. 3 half cup a day. I agree you really should set up an appointment with a nutritionist that works with your diet. For mushy foods i eat a lot of Beans, tuna chunk Light, canned chicken. It was suggested i could add Protein to sf pudding cup. Sometimes on mushy I eat instant mashed pot in broth mixed with lowfat cheese. Cottage cheese. If you have any questions please feel free to email me helyen88@yahoo.com. You can do it. Now a cup of food looks like a ton to me. take care. Sorry forgot you can also do eggs and fish. Dont forget to track and measure everything you eat.
  11. Cheryl you may not be able to keep it off and I may not but there are plenty people who do and can. Sandy don't let anyone make you not believe in yourself!
  12. Hang in there. If you can do liquids you can do anything. Stay strong and focuse.
  13. I flavor with sf ff instant pudding mix or pb2 if you like peanut butter.
  14. Hey sandy! Have you looked into weight watchers? You can check them out online.
  15. A lot of times you get headache due to detox. Please make sure to drink lots of water to help you cleanse.
  16. I am sure your doctor knows what he/she are doing and have you on a plan that they have seen work. If you dont trust your doctor you might find another. Your diet is acutally a lot easier then what I have seen other people on lately. A lot of people are on just liquids which is the hardest. Best of luck! What do you mean by you havent had any of the symptoms people have ?
  17. My insurance pays nothing dr charges my 100 a fill. I also have bcbs
  18. I had fill on Monday . I felt faint after and nausea after. Threw up my morning meds yesterday but was able to keep down food rest of the day. I started my period could that be part of it? Don't think I need an unfill and so far feeling like half way better so far. Any ideas?
  19. Can your period affect how your fill or even your band feels. I have been nausea and I can get most of my food in but Definately not right away. Nausea and burping throughout the day.
  20. I keep asking what difference the band size makes but I don't get answers. If you are asking and telling people what size there must be a reason. Please share I really don't understand. Everyone is different. You can't judge by what others have.
  21. Sharon Osbourne has been through a lot. First the cancer and then the double mastectomy, her sons ms. She is one very strong lady and knows what she is doing. I have noticed she has been Mia from the talk and Carnie Wilson has been filling in. Can't tell if she has lost. I guess maybe she learned her lesson after being so public about her bypass. Best of luck to her.
  22. No matter what the option listen to your doctors or nutritionist if you have any doubts.
  23. I always hear its best to walk as much as possible. Raise your arms up in the air. Gas pain can be really bad.You said you just had surgery and they already took saline out?
