  1. My Favorite And I Order Alot Meti Fast Choc I Have Evry Morning
  2. Youre Obviously Eating The Wrong Things And Too Much Of It I Love Pizza And I Dont Deny Myself But I Exercise, I Eat Other Healthy Things, I Drink A Protein Every Morning, Just Be Truthful To Yourself I Was Plateaued For A Long Time The Last 4-5 Months Havent Lost A Thing, I Got Another Fill, Thats Was Too Tight, Went Back Not I Can Eat Like A Bird, And 3 Lbs Came Off.... But When Im Able To Enjoy A Slice Of Pizza W/o Choking I Know It's Time For Tightening! Be Truthful To Urself And It Happens! Ps Slim Bear Icecream Are The Bomb! 100 Caloires
  3. in the same boat, but upset and now eating everything
  4. you think i could eat pizza, byrger and steak, slowly of course the one thing that always fails me is chicken, eggs and sometimes toast otherwise i eat everything else i have been filled 2 or 3 times since august and it seems like it has always been like this....i'm so depressed
  5. listen im cheating all the tima and i have the lap since july, thats life its impossible not to!
  6. i got my lap in july started at 205 lost right away im a steady 185 for the last 3 months cant seem to get off plateau, have exercised and firming up as i go so i'm happy about that, also lost lots of inches but no pounds. I find my self eating less than pror band but i can still get down all that junk i love like pizza! Chicken and eggs just dont work with me, I feel like im depressed and want those comfort foods!! Its all in the mind cause most times the body isnt even hungry. how many cheaters out there suffering like me????????????
  7. i'm three months in right away i lost 10-15lbs by month 1 1/2 i would say but nothing else since i went again for my second fill. but i always feel hungry, i dont eat properly all the time i dont think anyone does? but most of the time i do and very small portions.were all human but i can honestly admit it, i do eat ALOT less than i use to being banded, i do cardio and go walking minimum of 3 days a week but i have reached that plateau....any suggestions ive been losing alot of hair but i have a protein shake every morning, i use the protein powder in my meals, 2 vitamins a day, two calcium chews a day, so it's not like i'm not trying could i be missing some other vitamin?
  8. too many shakes will me u constipated also! But it's good to replace it 4 breakfast when u dont have time!
  9. i had my first fill at 2.50? im not feeling fully restricted i could eat a slice of pizza easy but slow....i think i need another .50? i have not lost weight since my 2nd month and i'm hitting third the first month was great 15lbs off no problem, down two sizes but now.......nada! i feel like i should feel restricted more and do more shakes to get off that next 5lbs off to get me to the next level........any advice out there
  10. which doctor would you use i know theres two in that office r u going 4 lap?
  11. no i am healing great! 12 lbs after i didnt do a pre op diet. it was needed since i was 200 lbs recommended by my nutritionist for heavy patients
  12. i used gadaletta in great neck so far so good
  13. Ellen you could do lentil soup, puree it, it's thick i could only get in about 4-6 oz but tastes sooo good feel like real food, i got sick of chicken soup after day 2! focus on protein otherwise your hair starts to fall out! i was told my meals. shakes should never be more than 8 oz and i should drink it within 15-20 minutes . i do 2 calcium chews a day , 2 flinstone chewables w/ iron, and got my blood pressure meds in liquids makes life alot easier! Good luck on your journey!
  14. doesnt seem like youre getting enought protein? i do 3 medi fast protein shakes a day
  15. i wouldn't do slim fast either i do choc medi fast taste great i have 3 a day plus 1 mushy food, i hate everything and for me to like it, it's gotta be good. Order there samples that way u can taste stuff before u order
