  1. Hi All, I lost 85lbs. since 2/2013. I haven't hit my personal goal of 100 yet but I feel like I am loosing my momentum. I had a tummy tuck in November and I feel great. Lately my eating habits have been horrible and I can't get myself to go to the gym. I'm pretty sure it's a mind (brain) game but how do I keep my momentum?? I also find that after I eat something terrible, I vomit, this isn't good either! I searched for recipes on here too but I can't find any. Can someone copy/paste some links?? Thanks so much
  2. Hi all, Does anyone else get that shoulder pain in the left shoulder? Same place I had the pain after my surgery. I often find if I take too big a bite or if I'm getting full I get that horrible pain in my shoulder. eek!

  9. When you all say walk I assume you mean around the house to work the gas out. This gas is really more painful than the actual incisions.

  20. Pre-Op tomorrow, but I was hoping that I can get some suggestions for groceries before and after surgery. I just ordered my UNJury Protein Shake mix but I wanted to know what exactly I should have in my possession especially as I don't want to be walking into any grocery stores while on my liquid diet. I'd like to be as best prepared for this as well as possible. I thank you all for your suggestions. As stated above, I have pre-op tomorrow and I know they will give me a list but I just wanted to see what you all had to say or add to this list. I appreciate your input and suggestions!!!
  21. Help!! I need tips on how to get through this anxiety. I need to start my 1 week liquid diet on Tuesday, January 29th and I am so spooked as to how I am going to do this. I keep telling myself there are some that had to do this longer. I just think back to a time when my husband and I juiced for 3 days and we thought we were gonna die as we were so hungry and felt so ill. Also, I find myself eating myself into an oblivion as I'm realizing my time will soon come to say bye bye to this horrible mess I'm in. Sooo looking forward to this life changing experience for myself!
  22. What is this shoulder pain that some bandsters complain about after surgery?? My scheduled surgery date is Feb. 5th!
  23. Thanks so much for all the suggestions.
  24. Hello, just wondering if you all have recommendations for a tasty protein shake. Surgery scheduled for January but getting prepped now.
