to fill or not fill - that's my ?
HeatherGurl replied to lovecats85's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
MY Dr. said that if you don't lose anything for 4 weeks straight to come see about a fill. Surely your Dr. will tell you to quit with the junk too. Are you losing still? -
Yikes!!!!!!

yep, you are right Leatha!!! That large cheese pizza that I could down by myself got me where I was... I stay away from Pizza COMPLETELY!

Those of you who are banded, do you exercise?
HeatherGurl replied to sleepyjean's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
This is something I have been neglecting. Probably the only rule that I have not followed from my Dr. I really want to start, but with me losing weight left and right, I guess I am lazy and do not want to put that extra effort in. I WILL EXERCISE!!! -
My first fill was 2.7 ccs in a 4cc band... Sweet spot for me right now.

My Dr. said absolutely no carbonated beverages. PERIOD. I have heard different from other Dr.'s though. I was a Diet Coke addict also (100oz a day at least) Not a problem to give it up though. All I drink now is Water, and my treat is iced tea.

You can get the Atkins shakes at Wal-Mart. They have 20g of protein... I think these taste the best! My favorite is Royal Chocolate! YUMMY! -

Have a recommendation for self-pay in Dallas/Ft Worth area?
HeatherGurl replied to JanetC's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I know Houston isn't the DFW area, but it isn't too far... My Dr. is AMAZING! I would recommend him to anyone. My insurance paid for me, but I know his self pay is $15,000. My first visit was October 14th and I was banded on November 9th. check out his website. www.bandmd.com -
What are you eating? Is your Dr. someone local that you can call for advice, or tips? My Dr. said that if I had any trouble losing weight to get in touch with him.

Count me in!!!! -
You are braver than me!!! I would love to try one bite of pizza, but I am scared to!!! I think it is best if I just stay away from it. I can't eat bread, so I just don't want to risk it.Believe me, it will take you months to be a good bandster. I still have to tell myself slow down, don't take another bite, you are obviously going to PB if you don't stop.I get better everyday!

awesome pic! I would HATE to see what all of my fat looked like in a picture!
-
Sugar Free Pudding is the BEST!!! I still have that for breakfast sometimes because my band doesn't allow me to have solids until after lunch!
