I got it from my local grocery store. It was on the same aisle as the rice. Instead of cooking it with Water I used organic chicken broth. It absorbs flavor very well. Surprisingly, I really like it.

Thank you to everyone who responded. Yall are THE absolute best. Your encouragement means the most!

I'm 3 weeks out and I must say I expected to have lost more than I have.
Day of surgery I was 240....today I am 225. Is this good weight loss? I know everyone loses differently, but I have neen following my diet to a tee. My weight keeps fluctuating. Ill lose then gain a few. I thought this didn't happen until later on.
Any advice?

Hi everyone! I am so excited to share with you all that I just got a call from my advocate, and my surgery has been approved for August 20th!!!! YAY!!!!!! I am so blessed! So, starting today I am on a one week pre op diet until my surgery date. Can anyone share ways they made their shakes taste better? I am drinking the Bariatric Advantage vanilla and chocolate shakes. The consistency is awful. Any suggestions would be so helpful! Thanks yall!

I'm out two days and can only manage to sip and walk. I am very tired. Remember we are not able to get in much of anything. 48 oz was my goal this week and that includes Protein and Water. I can't imagine trying to do schoolwork right now. Plus my eyes go cross eyed on this medicine sometimes lol

Hi there! I have been on the journey to a August surgery date, but as I have continued my research into the lapband I am becoming more and more concerned. I have read that more than 50% of patients who have the lapband require surgeries later on due to complications versus other WLS. I have read of scar tissue after removal of the band, and other negative reports. Can anyone please give me some first hand insight? Thanks in advance!

Thanks a bunch! Good info! #Mis73......wow!!!! 200 pounds. ..what an accomplishment!!!
