calorieking.com
realizeband.com
kraftfoods.com
obesityhelp.com
tasteofhome.com
safeway.com
sparkpeople.com
fit365bariatric.com/recipes
i just went in on google and other searches and typed in receipes for bariatric diets,low carb diets,and high Protein diets. i came up with a lot of searches. haven't viewed them all. some of the sites want you to join but i didn't. i just clicked on recipes.
hope you find some you like.
you can also go on other forums. a lot of people post receipes there too.

[/url] hey phyllser and bochs!!
thanks for the pep talk. i needed it.
i am a type A personality. i worry about everything. i am a stresser.
the doctor said i need to learn how to chill . ha ha i think i can handle the lap band surgery okay, i just don't want to be cut on. maybe i'll be lucky and i won't have to be. need to pray a lot. i also have a fear of being put to sleep and not waking up. i guess as one of my sons say, if it's not my time then i won't go. i know, i have issues!!!
i need to stay on this site where everything is positive and stay off the others.

i am getting very nervous!!!! i was on another site and a lady said she had to have an open incision with her lap band because of some scarring from previous surgerious. i also have some scarring. i absolutely do not want an open incision!!!! i guess i will have to wait and see what the doctor says.

hey bubba
i am new to this too. have been reading a lot of sites. trying to get a feel for whats to come. i have all of my paper work in and they are getting it ready for the doctor.
what kinds of surgeries did you have to make them do an open incision on you. i have a scar from my belly button down and a scar from my side and curved up (from gall bladder surgery) i sure don't want an open incision. i've had enough of them. now i'm getting nervous. i guess i'll have to wait and see what the doctor says.

hello

hey indiogirl55
been over at some other sites getting some receipes. they have some pretty good ones.
are the sites that have animations that you can download "safe" my son throws a fit when i down load things, he always thinks its going to mess up my computer

hey indiago
even though i am scared to have surgery (when i had surgery once they told me that they had a hard time waking me up) it helps having you guys here and hearing all of your encouraging stories. i am just petrified of being put to sleep even though i have had about 6 surgeries. i guess i just have to trust the guy above and believe everything will be okay

i also am a widow. it will be 4 years in April. we were high school sweethearts. im glad i found this site too. all i have at home to support me is my 10 cats. ha ha my sons support me also. i am just waiting for the doctor to review my papers and get an appointment with him. my regular doctor told me that if i did'nt get this done, he gives me 10 years to live. that certainly made me want to get it done. my husband always worried about my weight for my health and i know that if he were here he would encourage me to get it done.
-
thanks phyllser
i'll take a look at the web site
-
where are you guys getting all this animation that you're using????
-
hey maggies
i've just been working on it for a little over a month. just waiting for the doctor to view my papers and call me for an appointment. i'll have all of my tests done the day of my appointment.

hey jbflorida
vertically challenged!! i used to be 4ft 11. i have shrunk over the years. hope i don't shrink anymore!!!! i got tired of buying petite length pants and still having to cut off 4-5 inches. i started buying capris and they fit me perfect in the length. no more hemming!!!
i sure hope i can get my surgery before too long. i'm getting nervous.
-
hey maggies
i have all of my paper work in. she is getting it ready for the doctor.
i've only had the psych done. they said that when i go to the doctor visit they will send me to do the other tests. they said it would be an all day thing.
when i have mine done it will be in st. louis.

hey desdemona
thanks for the advice.
i love just about all the songs from the 50s 60's 70's
my favorite is Bobby Vee. i go to see him every year with my mom and sister. he performs in Branson, Mo. with Fabian, Brian Hyland, Chris Montez, and the Chiffons (only one left, she sings with her daughter and niece) we are always sitting in the center-front row-center. it is a great show. Bobby Vee calls us his backup singers. he is really a nice guy. they all are. they come out after the show to take pictures and sign autographs.

i must be the shortest one on here. i am 4 foot 9. if i could stretch my body i would be thinner. ha ha that ain't gonna happen. when i was younger i would have my brothers and sisters grab my arms and legs and pull to try and stretch them. didn't help. :sad:

hey desdemona
hearing how all of you guys made it through the liquid phase kinda helps me. i keep telling myself when i have to start mine, that i can do it.
-
hey bluezbandit
a lot of people keep saying how bad the liquid stuff and powders taste.
do you have any hints on what to put in them to make them taste better
-
hey indiago

i have all my paper work in except for the one above, i've seen the psych doctor and I am waiting for the next step. i just want to get this over with. what is your receipe for your homemade chicken broth.< /p>

did you find any good recipes on the web sites i gave you?
called the drs. office today. they said that they had all of my paper work together and put it in the "basket" for the dr. to read over and to determine if i'm eligible for surgery. i don't know how many are ahead of me.
this waiting is getting on my nerves. i hate to wait for things. i want to get them over with.
i think when i go in for surgery, they are going to have to give me something to take. maybe the morning before i get there. i'm such a chicken. i've had multiple surgeries before, but i got scared with each one.
