Mine tells me the same thing everyday. Do not worry and just follow the doctors instructions.

Good Luck today! Sending good vibes your way!

I've never taken the nasal spray but I do take B12 everyday. It's a Gummy so I think of it as a treat. And I can tell the difference with taking it and not taking it. It gives me lots more energy.

I was told by my NUT to start B12 right away. I do not think I am deficient, but I take supplements that I buy from GNC. It will help with your energy level also. I can tell when I forget to take mine. Let me know how it goes.

I think lisacaron pretty much nailed it. When I was on soft foods I ate eggs, tuna salad, chicken salad, refried Beans, cottage cheese, and chili. If I think of any others I will let you know. I really enjoyed the egg salad. Good luck!

So at work in the bathroom pushing pulling sweating, twisting and gyrating...breathing heavy...no not doing anything bad just trying to put on a damn girdle for a wedding tonight...co workers were like are you ok in there ....had to explain to them...lol


I am sure we all have these funny embarrassing stories hope someone gets laugh out of mine

You are doing great. I agree with Bandista, take measurements. The scale can change just because of Water weight. Just keep up the good work!

Met a friend for Breakfast this morning. I ordered two scrambled eggs, bacon and rye toast. My friend had an omelet. While we were chatting, I took two of the three pieces of bacon and put it on her plate. Did it without even breaking stride in our conversation and she didn't even notice....even when she was eating it. After we got up from the table, I glanced at my plate. About half of one egg left over. I ate my one piece of bacon. All the fried potatoes still on the plate. Half of one piece of rye toast gone and the other piece untouched. coffee cup drained but the OJ went untouched as well. I know at some point I won't even notice this type of stuff but I'm still early in the process and the changes in my eating habits are still very obvious to me. I truly was proud of myself when I saw what was on that plate. I didn't care what I had spent...and what was left over. It was way more important to see what the plate of a normal sized person looks like.

I am also on MyFitnessPal and I do not eat back my workout calories. I usually eat around 900 calories a day on average and burn anywhere from 250-350 calories with working out. It works for me and I am down 30 pounds since the last week of March. Most was lost on the pre-op diet. Good Luck everyone!

Bless you Carmen. I have two married sons and I'd like to think if I needed someone to take care of me in such a dire situation, one of my daughters-in-law would step up as you are doing.

Good Luck! I had my surgery 6 weeks ago and I love it. The first couple of days are hard but it was so worth it.

That was my same pre-op diet. I really enjoyed the dinners. He gave me a list of frozen meals also that I could eat for dinner. Good luck with everything!

I am 6 weeks post op and I was able to drink a lot of Water after surgery also. I have not tried bread yet but I heard whole grain is better to eat with the lapband.

I do 30-40 minutes of a walk/jog combination right now, 7 days a week. I want to add to it, but finding time is hard since I work full time and have a kid in girls scouts and softball. You just have to start somewhere and work your way up.

Good news...I lost 2.5 lbs!! I know it's not much but it made me happy since I've been at a complete standstill for the past 5 weeks! I think I was exercising too much and not eating enough. I scaled it back and viola! Sooo happy!

I Would like to take a moment and thank my lap band! Yes! Thank you lap band for giving me the power to figure out how to do what I couldn't do alone! The power to chew food slowly, take small bites and for the first time in my life.. Learn to listen to my body! Thank you for helping move towards a diet full of Protein and produce! Whole foods that fill me up and are good for me! Thank you for helping give up soda and tea... Things I miss but feel better for not drinking! Thank you for teaching me patience because Bandster hell was awful!!!!! Thank you for making me realize how I abused my body with food! Most of all Thank you for letting me find myself... So I can live my life to the fullest!

Asics are sooooo comfy
