  1. For everyone who can eat toast a coworker at work got me hooked on this low carb bread from Julian Bakery. The website is: Julian Bakery - Low Carb, Wheat-free, gluten free bread, Preservative-free, Low Carb Bread, Julian Bakery high quality bread! I tried the smart bread 1 and it is good toasted here is the nutrianal info:Nutrition Facts:Serving Size:1 SliceServings Per Loaf:Approximately 14Amount Per Serving:Calories: 109Calories from Fat: 9% Daily Value**Total Fat: 1g2%Saturated Fat: 0g0%Cholesterol: 0mg0%Sodium: 140mg2%Total Carbohydrate: 13g7%Dietary Fiber: 12g48%Net Carbs: 1g Sugars: 0gProtein: 12gVitamin A: 0%Vitamin C: 0%Iron 7% - Calcium 4% - Thiamin 8%
  2. I have a question. I am taking a cold and when I do I usally take alkaselzter cold and flu medicine. Will that effect the band after I let it sit and fizz for a while?
  3. Did the newsletter Jeannie mentioned at the support group Monday get emailed. I didn't get a copy if it did could someone send it to me?
  4. I am doing good with it. I had my first fill last Monday. I found out the hard way that I had to be careful with dry foods now that I don't have any drinks with meals. I choked a little on a dry piece of chicken. I will be at the meeting Monday, I will play golf early that day.
  5. Hello, I was wondering if anybody here goes to the Family fitness center. I started this week and the instructer has been very nice an curtious.
  6. Everything is going well, I am on my fith week of post-op and I have my first fill on Monday Sept 14th
  7. The other question I forgot to ask Kaplan was about Exercise. When do I go back to a regular workout? I have been walking some lightly in the park but that is about it.
  8. The meeting was cancelled on Monday is there going to be a make up date and time. Another question I have is that I begin mushie stage on Friday, my girlfriend was wanting to cook me something and she was wondering if she can take lean ground turkey/beef and fry it up then run it through a food processer to cut up even more when done and add it to gravy?
  9. Hello, Surgery went good and I have been doing well. I still have an issue with a little bit of gas in the morning but overall doing ok. I am tired of broth and taking it easy by walking around. I am glad it is raining so I will not miss playing golf as much.
  10. I made the weight loss requriement again so I am ready for surgery on thursday. Now is the time for nerves to start. I am going to my parents house to recover due to my apartment being stairs and more stairs and not to be alone during recovery.
  11. I have been looking at different protien powders to use after surgery. Does anyone have any recommendations?
  12. That is great I go for my second pre-op:ohmy: on Thursday. the 7th. Right now back on the 2 week diet and hating my tv for putting up olive garden comercials:drool:
  13. Yes, my new surgery date is August 13th. I start the 2 week diet Thursday again.
  14. I couldn't find it on the web page but that sounds interesting. The Cardiac specialist cleared me for surgery now it is just a waiting game to get a new surgery date. I know Susan is on vacation this week and the office told me that they haven't gotten a letter from Avington yet. My insurance clearence has expired should I get in contact with Jeanie about that or will the office handle an extension?
  15. The nurse at Kaplans told me as soon as they get the all clear from the Cardio department they will get me in asap. I will have to go back on liquid diet again to lose ten pounds but that will not be a problem
