    Share ideas, What did you eat today ?

    I just got my first fill yesterday and thought it would be so nice to have a menu plan. Does anyone know what is a good meal plan? I'm so afraid that I won't get in all the necessary nutrition, i.e. sufficient protein, oils, fats, etc. Years ago when I was on the "liquid diet" fad, I began to lose huge wads of hair because of insufficient protein, etc. Thanks!

    HELP!! Not covered by ins. self pay

    I was mid-way through my 6 months course and found at that my insurance didn't cover it due to an employer clause, not because I wasn't qualified. I resigned myself to the fact that I wasn't meant to have the surgery. Within a few days I did some research and found a company CreditCare that provides a credit card limit for medical procedures. I struggled with whether a $15,000 debt was worth it. My answer, of course, my life is worth that and much more! As one other bandie said, it is an investment, one that will give you a better quality of life and a longer one too! I had my surgery two weeks ago, I'm down 12 pounds so far and thankful every day that I did it! I hope this helps!

    GAINED WEIGHT!!! SO frustrated

    I have the same situation, bloated and have steadily gained weight all week! I'm not going to let this get the best of me though, I think I had this very unrealistic expectation, surgery and poof, I'm skinny! Hang in there, I bet next week after your "friend" is gone, the weight loss will be substantial! I'm craving pickles as though I'm pregnant, anyone experiencing this? My banding was on 4/8/08. Thanks ya'll!
