  1. Good Luck Doriana on your pre op . Yes Yoda is right, it does get easier after 3 or 4 days. Good luck to your hubby too.
  2. Since having the band my taste buds have really changed. I no longer can drink Tim Hortons coffee. I could become a vegetarian. Could care less about meat.I might eat meat 1 or twice a week. I eat protein by eggs ,cheese string ,peanut butter. I am nervous to eat green salad. Afraid i can't chew it good.Anybody else experiencing this ?
  3. Wheezy you might be on a stand still for 2 or 3 wks. Then you will start losing again. Be patient. My hair is getting thinner too .
  4. A friend of mine was talking about the band. So i research it and discussed with dh about it.The money was the issue.After major discussions my dh and i both got the band . no regrets
  5. Yoda you are doing great with your weightloss .You can always have a little piece if the temptations too much. Tommorrow is another day.
  6. Hi Argon. Did you ever get your unjury yet? If so do you like it ?

  10. I want a good mp3 player to download songs onto for my treadmill.
  11. Sorry to hear about your episode of pb's Wheezy. It is not fun. I am afraid to eat in a restaurant; just in case i am sick. Oh well we will save money .
  12. No i would call that slime.I can't believe where all the slime comes from.Sorry to be gross.
  13. Argon pb is the whole contents of food in your pouch.Sometimes i think i ate to much because alot comes up.
  14. cute song Yoda.
  15. How are those cookies you made for Mr Yoda ? Yes he has pb,s but he mainly slimes too.
  16. Sometimes my pb,s last anywhere from 5 mins. to about 20 mins . I had cup of soup one day for lunch , then i drove kids to Zellars ,all the way there i was not feeling good so i pulled over and pb . I can't eat some foods. Foods that i can't eat so far are; shrimp, noodles in soup,almonds (had a little chicken guy ding) ,carrots are iffy. I am afraid to try anything new. :think
  17. mmmmmmm peanut butter banana cookies never had them,Sounds very good.
  18. You are very lucky Yoda i have probably pb's about 8 times already. I still have a problem with with chewing my food.
  19. WELCOME Sunsreturn and Doriana .Yes this is a great site for advice and encouragement.Yes my hubby and i both had the same band put in.We are doing good.(thanks Yoda)
  20. Green i tried all the diets too.The money i spent on Dr. Bernstein's ;all the diet books etc.; weight watchers , tops ;the list goes on.This is no easy way out. I have paid my dues. I wish i heard about the band sooner.Yes i would be pissed if anyone criticized me.
  21. I agree with you Yoda, i refuse to go on a strict diet with the band. I have been on a diet for 30 years off and on and i am tired of dieting .I make healthy choices most of the time and exercise .If it takes me a year to take my weight off ;i am not in any hurry as this is a lifetime change.
  22. I lent my slow cooker to my ds .All these recipes sounds so good .I will have to try them.
  23. Has anyone had any luck getting on the tlbc. message board? I haven't yet and i e-mailed Kathy 3or 4 days ago.
  24. Congratulations on your weight loss Green. All that worrying on the fill for nothing lol.
