  1. i looked at Walmart and they didn't have it, they might have been sold out. i got mine at Macy's. 49.99 on sale.
  2. Would you share with me your protein shake recipe? I can't fine a protein drink I like, except Slim Fast Low Carb. I bought a Magic Bullet and New Whey vanilla protein powder, and they are sitting on the shelf, unused.
  3. I looked and I couldn't find where you download it.
  4. Hi....I noticed you're from Ft Worth. I live in Grand Prairie, but I do everything in Ft. Worth, was raised there. My Dr. is in Ft Worth also. I love scrapping too. When did you get your band and how are you doing? I've lost 26 1/2 lbs. I got my first fill Aug. 26th. I had good restriction for 3 days, now I am hungry and can eat anything. My 2nd fill is Sept 23rd. I have a 10 cc band with 5ccs fill now. The nurse told me Friday it could take 3-6 fills to get to my sweet spot. Good Luck.
  5. I had my first fill Aug. 26th. I have a total of 5cc's. I had restriction the first 3 days after fill, since then I am starving. I'm not doing too well and so afraid I'm going to gain back what I have lost. My next fill is Sept. 23rd. " Help " !! :thumbup:
  6. I got my first fill Aug 26th. I now have 5cc's in a 10cc band. The first 3 days were great, now I am having hunger pains between meals. My next fill is Sept. 23rd. Getting my fill was very uncomfortable to me, not looking forward to the next one.

  8. Phyllser ... Will you share your Turkey Teriyaki Roast recipe? Sounds delish !!
  9. I was told my pouch would only hold 4oz. Nutritionist told me to eat 1/2 cup per meal. Dr that did my fill told me to keep food amount the size of my fist.
  10. I have always wondered why they use different size bands. Do you know. When I had my last fill, Dr told me I had a 10cc size band. I ate 1/2 cup of Rice Krispies this morning at 8:30 and I am very hungry now. I have to wait until the 23rd for another fill. Felt great for 3 days after fill, started feeling hungry sooner yesterday.
  11. How many cc's is in your band now? I was banded same day as you, I have 5cc's now.
  12. So sorry to hear you are so hungry. I was banded Aug. 4th. During surgery my Dr. put 2 cc's in my band. I had to return 4 days later and he removed 1cc. I went back Aug. 26th and he put in 4cc's, which now gives me 5ccs. I can eat anything, I noticed yesterday that I'm feeling more hungry. So...I am trying to eat very small amount several times a day so I won't overeat all at once.
  13. I was banded Aug 4th. I haven't had any problems with burping at all.
  14. Janet, Where can I find your Navy Bean soup recipe?
  15. Thanks...I think I will hold off for awhile.
  16. Maybe the diet bread would be easy to swallow since its pretty thin. You think?
  17. You poor thing. I was banded Aug. 4th. Had my first fill Tues, the 26th. He put 4cc's in. I have a total of 5 ccs now, since he put 1 cc in during surgery. I am not hungry at all, its great so far.
  18. Just wondering if you have problems eating bread. Tomorrow is my big day, the day that I can eat beef, pork, anything I want. I love sandwiches, but I have heard that bread was hard to swallow.
  19. Where did you post the recipe! Sounds great.
  20. I was told Cokes were history.
  21. Hi everyone. I just bought some Whey Protein powder, vanilla flavor. Does anyone have some shake recipes you can share with me.?
  22. Janet, I just read about your GS. I'm so sorry to hear the sad news. I hope all is well, and you both are in my prayers. Hugs, Pj
  23. hi...i'm doing much better now, but....i am hungry. lol i get my first fill next tuesday the 26th. Congratulations on your surgery date. just make sure you drink your Water and don't get dehydrated like i did, and use your bullets. good luck to you. let me know how you are doing after surgery.
