  1. Hello all! I have attached my before pic from Nov 2007 and and after picture from Nov 2008. I need to get another pic since I have lost 20 more pounds since that picture.
  2. I'm there with you. We eat better than before. It is really sad that it costs more to eat healthy than junk!

    I completely agree. Once was enough for me to learn and once was enough for my 3 kids. There is a line between spanking and beating. The government needs to stay out of families business and put God back in the schools. USA was founded on the principals of the Bible and God. People need to remember this.
  4. I lost 5 pounds with my pre-surgey diet. I had surgery and gained 12 pounds. i lost it within 1 week. it was fluid from the surgery and iv.
  5. GNC, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, etc. Many drug, grocery, and superstores have different types of Protein shakes. I use
  6. A friend of mine had hers done in Mexico. She has had complications. She has not been able to find a doctor in VA that will touch her for the fill. Her insurance wouldn't cover the surgery which is why she went to Mexico. Her words to me when I told her I was looking to have it: Don't go to Mexico. I was lucky and my insurance covered it.
  7. I'm a slow loser and it's okay. i have lost 40 pounds since december 07. i'll take it. i would rather lose slow than fast with hanging skin or not loose at all.
  8. i eat all those things too! i just chew, chew, and chew.
  9. i guess no one has heard of it. i see 13 have reviewed it but no comments.
  10. Has anyone heard of or tried Zylene, the dietary supplement? A friend of mine has been taking it. She had the lapband surgery and this is helping remove inches and curves her mental hungry pains. Thanks.
  11. Welcome to the wonderful Landbanktalk.com!! Great weightloss so far! Keep up the good work!!
  12. i would never think of doing it. What if you put in too much? OMI. There are some things that should NEVER be done on one's self...a fill is one of them.
  13. Unjury is good. I love the chocolate flavor. I also get lots of protein from vegan foods. I have eliminated hoof animals and am working on eliminating the beaks. I still love my fish and seafood, though. I just don't digest hoof animals like I did before. I don't like the way I feel and you really don't get much protein in 2 oz of animal compared with vegan foods.
  14. i measure myself every other week. you can loose inches and not pounds. it can be very stressful but having inches melt helps.
