Surgeon didnt recommend a first fill
Yes please check out Missy's link!! If you do not need a fill please dont get one. I have a friend who has lost 75 lbs so far since mid December with no fills. I also met someone at a group who lost around 150 with no fill. Not everyone needs fills. Wish I didnt would make my journey so much easier because I usually end up tight and have to get unfilled.

tell me about peanut butter
Have you checked the calories in those?

tell me about peanut butter
Natural peanut butter with nothing added is 200 calories for 2 tbls. It has protein but I would not consider it a lot. I was eating it but decided I was not willing to use those calories. I mix a lot of different raw and sprouted nuts and mix in my yogurt or have for a snack but not every day. I saw somewhere. That sunflower seed butter is healthiest. When I want peanut butter I mix pb2 with a little almond milk, sweetener or little honey, and dash of salt.

Any idea how to get over a plateau?
- Looking for a specific protein shake please help
Actually, if you click on the link in my previous post you can click on "Choose flavor" and you can buy chocolate or vanilla in 2lb or 5lb tubs..the vanilla is slightly more expensive, but definitely reasonable [/quote ... Thanks for the links. I could not tell from the first one, but the second is too many calories for me. I actually decided not to a shake. Looking for a good bar for after workouts. Every time I drink a shake I get terrible pain in my left shoulder and when I add ingredients it just raises the calories.- Post Op Protein Question
If you still have them go back and exchange for new flavor. I heard the fruit punch taste like kool aid.- Need recipes
If you area using Jello brand brand mix a whole box has 1200 sodium. That is very close to what you should have in entire day. Also the ricotta has additional sodium. Just FYI.- Lap band removal complications
I definately agree with second opinion! Congrats on your weight loss!!- Any May 9th Lap Band/Ibands?
I think l is for lap.- Band over bypass May 1st
You are lucky to have a second change. I wish you the best of luck. You may want to see if you can find anything on line about Carnie Wilson. She did same thing not too long ago.- I feel sorry for all you people...
I love refried beans can you please share the recipe????- looking for someone to talk to for support
Most doctors have support groups and if they dont there is usually one around. Make sure ot ask. Best of luck to you.- 2 months post-op and now incision problems
Call your doctor!!- Feeling much better
Personally I think you need to call your doctor or nutritionist to figure out how to get everything in. I dont think you should be forcing liquids down if you are hungry.- ughh I had to take advil
My mother had eroding in her esaphagus from being on ibprofen for long time. I dont think short time would really make a difference. Also my gp will not let me take ibprofen because my creatine (sp?) levels are high. There are also some medications that tell you not to take ibprofin with them. For example lithium. - Looking for a specific protein shake please help
