BandtoSleevechick

I didn;t feel hungry either when i was a few weeks out.. i was banded on 4/26... best advice yes follow your doctors orders and it wouldn't hurt to have protein on hand for shakes just incase you fiond that you need it.. i was a week on clear.. week on full .. week on mush week soft solids and then reg solids.. and drink your water and walk lots!

I love unjury shakes no aftertaste at all in my opinion. .. I do frozen peaches a lil cinnamon and yum peach cobbler

Well I only noticed the boobs one day because my bra didn't roll up anymore (Was a 46 and in denial so stayed with a 44) I was like huh I must have lost something lol

I know i was so excited that i was making this lifestyle change since it took me so long to make the decision and finally say okay it's not a easy way out type of thing.. One co worker who had hers done heard me telling people and told me i didn't need to tell anyone if i didn;t want to because she had gotten some negative responses at work... i feel the type of response you receive when you share you.. with co workers or whoever reflects the type of person you are... not to mention in my workplace rumors can spread like wildfires and i would rather them hear it from the source and not some messed up rumor that i was on drugs... I would agree and say you could say you personal reasons and do not wish to discuss it at this time ( usually people get so wrapped up in their own life that they forget about that other time) and i also know some who have said they are having gallbladder surgery. goodluck!

I noticed the boobs first as well... sad to see them go BUT the only thing that changes is the number not the cup on me lol

That's great gowalking! Keep up the goodwork!!

I had dr. Goldstein in Voorhees. ... I feel it makes a difference when you find someone you like and trust

i order mine from www.unjury.com it is what my surgeon recommended and LUCKILY there is no disgusting aftertaste.. and usually i get it next day.. i ordered

depends on what i am doing ... if i cooked a lot i weigh after if its just meats that i am freezing for future use.. i weigh before

i had to get bloodwork, 3 months nutrition, psych eval, and a barium swallow because i had acid reflux.. at the seminar my surgeon explained all of the surgeries ( even tho he just preforms the lapband).it was a couple hours .. he went over everything which i liked.. i was 5 months from initial seminar because of insurance goodluck!

Congrats on your new surgery .. That does stink about the 2 past attempts to wls surgery but you have a new life now with the band!!! keep the other two in the past where they belong! Goodluck on your new journey

yes but after workout?

More protein and less expensive lol

i know i was gonna say that.. great cause its soft and can chew it alot!

oh lol

after walking to?

like food wise?

I work for the state and have BCBS.. and a co worker had hers removed no issues.. appeal it .. goodluck!

I was banded 4/24/13 and down 23pounds ... love this journey i'm on can't wait to see what the future holds

When i look in the mirror i see the same as well... do you feel it in your clothes? They say a scale can be our worst friend.. i say our mirror is equally just as bad.. we get all in our head about it ... i use pictures, and the way the clothes feel and the joy of being able to pull a pair of work pants up and down without unbuttoning or unzipping... i also say go get yourself a nice summer dress.. one that's easy to be taken in through out your journey..What you see is what you make of it ..

lol i had a drink last night a bottle of those twisted teas.. usually i need more the one to get me feeling good.. no only took half a bottle i felt like such a lightweight haha

think if you are comfortable with telling him or it somehow comes up do it!! if not wait til you had a few more under the table so to speak lol Have fun!!

Anyone? i hope this is just hormones.. i am not stressed about anything that i know of anyway

Mzz it was very hard for me too in the end i did go get my first fill yesterday and on liquids right now for a couple days... i have never counted calories .. being a ww fanatic who love the point system... this will be interesting now
