the supermarkets carry eas protien products.shoprite stop&shop.you have to look in the dietian isle.and sometime it,s on sale for like $12.00-14.00 dollars. also if you have a walmart.because gnc is so expensive.

good for you, go get em tiger. you dust those gloves off.i predict a knockout. and the winner is(frustratedInLa).

starbucks have the big bottles of sugarfree syrups.for around $6.00.or check walmart,sometimes they have them.an any other supermarket,just ask the clerk or manager.

congrats on your five pounds. every pound counts.an you are only on your second fill.keep on trucking chapauo1.

my nut, told me to eat dannon light&fit yogurt, i still eat it today. an cheese is good for you. just get the lowfat, or string cheese.

two weeks post-op i lost 19lbs.then it stop the doctor told me . you are not going to lose anymore weight until i start my fills. an during my fourth fill i saw results.

sometimes it takes more than one or two fills to get restriction. it took my fourth fill. then i started to drop pounds but mines only happens when i get fill.hang in their. it will happen.you are only out a month. after losing 19 lbs after post-op my doctor told me don,t expectto lose any more weight. until i started getting my fills.

can you have the hospital call you a cab.thats how i got home. good luck on your new journey in life. please do not cancel your surgery because of this. you don,t know how long it will take for your doctor to redo.

the only place i see it advertise is on qvc, the hotdogs, the bison burgers. i wonder do they sell it in any supermarkets. it do looks delicious.

go to you tube search for lapband vlogs.an thats it. their are plenty on you tube. happy watching.

when i went in for my info session.i had to come in early, because the nurse said i had to fill out the diet history, its a blank sheet of paper asking what diet you had tried over the years, she told me to just write any diet, the questions on my paper consists of how long wrer you on the diet. how much weight you lost. what diet were you on. from what month, maybe 2-3 months stuff like that.i put i was on akins weight watchers special k south beach. thats an example. she said as long as i put down something. make sure you fill up the page. hope this help.

if you are talking about drugs like being on crack. then yea in my neck of the woods. you either on crack.got aids. of cancer.example last week a friend of my boyfriend. sound so (high school) saw me out in a store he ask him what happen to me(he has the band also)so he decided to tell him that i had the lapband. he was so shock.i lost 91lbs. people are use to seeing me at 324lbs believe me i had a beer belly.an it shrunk. an also he had a big beer gut, so i pass him. he got the band before me.i am sure a lot of people wonder the same thing.but until they ask i am not telling,i have told some people. the point is i ask him why you told him i had the band.then it pop in my head you don,t want people to think i am on crack. well from my neighbor hood it makes a lotta since.but it don,t make me no difference on way of another.

during the time i had to do a six months dietian classes. i was told to do low carb. but then again i started off on chicken broth, sugar free jello. chicken, fish, salads. protien drinks, an when i started to see my weight drop.i went wow.my stomach started decreasing.i was so motivated.but then again the dietian told meto start praticeing on small portions.hope this help.

how are all the new year hotties doing. i am nine months out.93lbs down.(40lbs) before surgery. i am happy with the band.life is so good.right now i am 233lbs trying to get under 200. that will be my goal. even though it changes. maybe 185lbs.i don,t know.i only pb two to three times.i exercise five times a day. 45 minutes each on my stationary bike.i am just pedaling away.hope everyone is doing great wheather its fast or slow.one day at a time.sil.

you are only three days post-op. you should not be trying to drink all that water. in one day,i was told to sip through out the day,even i did not get 64oz, in.i was on 1 ounce of ensure four times a day.i was noy hungry.just take tiny sips through the day, until you feel you can takein more.

i agree also with you guys.because the waiting list just keeps getting longer, an longer. it seems like more people are signing on for the surgery.some people have to be on a waiting list.

after my two weeks post-op checkup.you are just starting to heal.15lbs thats great, i lost 19lbs my first two weeks. my instructions were 1 ounce of ensure every hour four times a day, thank goodness i did not have an appetite. how about you . it just seems to vanish.

hi i was banded in january.i got the 4cc band, my first fill was the following month.an mine did not hurt, i had to put my hands behind my head like you are doing a sit up.an he told me to push my stomach out. an bam,thats it.he does not numb anything its just a 1,2,3. its done. an my fills does not hurt. afterward i am on 24 hours of liquids,then soft then regular. an no i do not eat anything once i have an appointment. i really hardley eat any breakfast, sometimes i have to make myself eat.
