I am thinking of getting a fitbit and was wondering who has one and what do you think of it ? love it hate it? I would love to know before I make my choice thanks

If you want it thick just make sure the fruit is all frozen before adding ,I usually don't add ice because of the frozen fruit

Lol I was wondering, have to love autocorrect

My son has type one diabetes and will get ketones when sugars are way to high , water water water it flushes the kidneys

Good morning, are you working out ? even walking helps speed up weight loss a lot , I hate the scale ,I am not banded yet but when I am losing weight I know the scale fluctuates a lot day to day, water retention TOM so many things can make us gain.

I'm very picky about protein powders most make me gag but I to like the Unjury chocolate and strawberry isn't bad , I haven't tried the chicken soup it makes me nervous lol

I think people don't want to come of rude by asking if a person has lost weight so they acknowledge the change with a different complement , just my thought on it

You look AMAZING! congratulations!

Thanks for the post ! I will be trying several

Slightly off topic but those who mix with turkey sausage what brand of sausage do you use ? I haven't found one I liked yet

Ah that's to bad ,but they will taste that much better when you can have them again

Sweet potatoes are high in starch ,but so full of fiber and vitamins I cant imagine they are on the do not list

I also have a lot of trouble drinking protein drinks I bought the Unjury Chocolate and it actually pretty good with not a really strong after taste

Good luck!

That upsets me, I workout every day , cardio weight train you name it , I was following a diet and still was only able to take off 40 pounds on my own then hit a plateau that I was unable to shake ,discouraged gained it all back but still at the gym, most people don't wake up one day and say well I guess I will have surgery cause that will be easy . The decision to have WLS for me anyway came after many years of struggle.

Weight training is very good for weight loss , the more lean muscle you have the more fat you burn

Reduce your carb and sugar intake and water water water , my son is a type one which I know is different but lowering it with out insulin is the same

I know that vitamins on an empty stomach can cause vomiting ,that may have been the issue if you are only on liquid

I am 5'4 and 223 my bmi is 37.8 which puts me at the morbidly obese range ,I guess it depends on how you feel and are the only person that can decide if its right for you.

Under armor makes very good supportive clothing , they also make it in larger sizes, I have been working out in it for years

Thanks so much good to know I can still eat it and thanks for the link

I have read that many banded people can not tolerate rice,bread,pasta, how do any of you find Quinoa ? We eat it in our home and I was just wondering how its handles after you are banded

Wow , that's scary ,I am thankful I am not sick often but its good to know to get help if I am.

how do you avoid vomiting ? it does happen, what do you do when you are sick ?

Thank you all for the replies, the information helps a lot
