So, you think it's a little stress due to your situation? I went in 10 days ago and got a fill. Took 4 days before it settled in and now I'm drinking some of my breakfasts. I don't stress much but then I have this I don't give a shit attitude so I got that going for me ;o) I tried Catfishe's shake/coconut milk/peanut butter/banana flurry/blizzard last week and that was so good. Should be good for your mistress too?

Yea, I think stress is a major factor right now, my brother passed last week as well. Normally stress doesn't bother me, but I think I might be getting to me right now. So, my vitamix is my friend.

I hear ya , as I am going through something right now and will be for a few months , not with my band , just personal, and I want to everything , but I refuse to as I know it would hurt my health, so try and walk or ride it out sort of speak even if it's for 5, 10 15 or 30 min. or grab your wife or daughters and just dance around, and have a few moments to have fun ,laughing and crying and be proud of your self , that will take some time of the stress, hope these suggestions helped.,

So awesome! WTG!

Wow that is good , I can't even imagine oh wait yes I can cause I did it may have taken a yr. but ya it feels good , good for you.

Wow wow wow

Debbie, I was both venting and struggling that night. If it weren't for the head hunger, I would be close to goal. But the part that is fantastic for me is that I haven't logged food or weighed daily through the Holidays. Just listened to my band. It gives me hope.

That's right cause it will for sure tell you when I have noticed that for sure.

That is awesome that you were able to lose over the holiday! I am almost certain I gained 5 lbs..lol. But my surgery is coming up. I don't have a date yet.

It's a start and needs refinement like most new things.

I'm with you!

Ya we only have a week till the dreaded eating and overstuffing we (USED) to do , now we know our signals and what and how much we can or can not have , just remember just because it's there doesn't mean we have to.

Fun part is, since I am the cook of the family, by the time the meal is ready I won't be hungry at all from the nibbling I will do during prep. I need to get a nice big box of Altoid mints for the occasion.

Nibblling is good cause then before you know it you are full and you know your signals as I know mine so just don't over stuff and it is good that we can't now so we will have more energy to play around and visit with company, it's going to be a good Holiday this yr. and we can be thankful for our banded healthy lives now.

lol.
