  1. When I was in that stage I was on Facebook looking and recipes that everyone was posting haha. Not smart either.
  2. I'm glad to hear that. That let's me know that I can probably do it too! Thank you :-)
  3. Lol sounds good to me!
  4. Oh wow that's a long time to run! When you first started could you alternate the running and walking?
  5. Wow that's awful that girl said that! What makes her think you don't already steal the spotlight!? Ugh people makes me so mad with comments like that.
  6. Goodness you are doing wonderful! No I haven't but I need to get my butt up and do it. Do you feel better now that you have done most of the C25K?
  7. Nah no bad reaction and not craving sugar so I guess I'm good :-) thanks girls I really appreciate it!
  8. Crystal lite is like my go to with water but the third ingredient is aspartame....should I be drinking this since it has that in it even though that's what the doctor specifically says to drink because there's no sugar in it? I'm just curious if anyone else has noticed it in the list of ingredients or not.
  9. I'm in the macon area also :-) dr Baganto was my doc. I wish y'all the best of luck :-)
  10. I slept In my recliner for at least 3 weeks or so. My port is on my left side of my chest not on my abdomen. Get a pillow and put it under the side your port is on and get a bra that's good to lift and it should help. It gets better as time goes on but I found that a bra would help with the hurting. Is yours on your abdomen or chest?
  11. EAS is good too. Doesn't taste like a protein shake. Atkins are good just get the one highest in protein and lowest in sugar. :-)
  12. I love love love jerky lol
  13. I plan on going camping soon and I was wondering if anyone could give me some ideas on band friendly food I could take on the camping trip?
  14. Atkins shakes were on my list too. I was told < or = 3G sugar or less with 17g Protein or higher.
  15. My opinion if you average 2 lbs a week you can lose about 100 lbs or a little more in a year (not adding in plateaus and set backs) but I think it's possible :-) good luck!
  16. I know I LOVE cheese I always have....I also crave milk too. I don't know why but I've always loved dairy.
  17. I actually gained a couple of lbs between my 1st and 2nd fill. My 3rd fill is what helped me the most.
  18. Okay y'all the holidays are coming up and I want to know how y'all deal with them. All the veteran bandits how do you get through? I assume it's like any other day because you can't forget about the band (which I LOVE).
