Hi Mothering9. I see that we were both banded last April! I have an unbanded friend who loves THM. I have started slowly making my food changes and am copying her recipes and pinterest until my book comes. I was wondering how other bandsters were doing with it.
It's good, because you have to eat every few hours..I sometimes feel full and forget to eat for long periods during the day and then am famished and make bad food choices! I love how it's Protein & healthy fats positive. The carbs that you do eat are healthy. There are yummy shakes that include protein powder! Also, we are told to avoid the sweeter/starchier fruits..which is something that I needed to do (banana addict!).. My first 60 lbs have come off pretty quick and easily, but has started slowing down. Hoping this will get the scale moving again and help keep my energy levels up enough to work out more! Please let me know if you jump into this and how you're doing. I hope to be fully jumped into this in a week or so. Still buying/replacing items in my pantry
Oh, i've joined the thm for beginners on fb and it's so supportive and helpful with advice, tips & recipes. Also www.gwensnest.com is great! ive heard that there will soon be a surgical weight loss THM on fb
