How long did you wait to get out and about
I didnt mow the lawn, but I was discharged from the hospital at 10:30am and by 11am, I was at Rooms to Go buying new chairs for my table. Then we headed back home. I took a nap for an hour, then we went and picked up my daughter from school and went to a Chinese place for dinner. I had the broth from the won ton soup. Then we went to super Target and walked around it for about an hr and a half. Pretty much every day after that I have had about 2-4 hrs of walking around at the mall, store, ect. I think all that walking really helped with any gas issues. I only had a little bit of gas pains. But you have to listen to your body, not anyone else's.

Protein - Brands?
I drink the EAS premade shakes. I get them from wal mart. They have choc, vanilla and strawberry flavors. The calories are around 110 and you get 15g of protien in 11oz. My favorite is the dark choc flavored.

USA should take a page out of Australia's handbook!
As a country who is considered as a melting pot of culture, we need a national language that everyone has to learn. Why? How can the Spanish guy across the street make friends with the Indian guy and the Korean girl if everyone insists everyone speak THEIR language and wont make an effort to speak another?

August Band Crew!!!!!
yup, protien first, veggie next, carbs last. Oh and dont forget, slimfast is NOT the only protien drink out there. THANK GOD in my opinion, I think slimfast is the devil. I drink EAS Carb control drinks. I can find them at my grocery store and at Wal Mart and Target. The Rich dark Chocolate is my favorite. They also have a caramel coffee flavor that I am addicted to and bought 2 cases off of the EAS site.(www.eas.com)

Thread Killers
And one day, the random lurker posted a message just to see if she could kill a thread. See, no one knew much about her, and not how to respond. Oh and Kathy, you only offend if you eat alot of your black bean salad.

Would you have done this?
So, I was in Dr. B's office today for my one week check-up. (weight loss so far confirmed ) I was chit-chatting with the nurse and she said that today a lady called the office to ask some questions and maybe go to one of his Lapband seminars. The lady who called said that a perfect stranger walked up to her in the mall and handed her Dr B's card. I was flabbergasted.:faint: I would not know what to do if a perfect stranger came up to me and handed me a card to a Dr who does Weight Loss Surgery. I'm still trying to debate if the stranger had a HECK of a lot of gaul, or was her gaurdian angel.... know what I mean?

Recommendations
Yup, I have UHC, thru Wachovia. I was approved in record time of 3 days. I would call your HR dept and see if they have any riders that state if you tell HR you need it, they can get UHC to cover it.
