  1. I love my vitafusion gummy vitamins. They r delicious. I take 4 instead of 2 because they r soooo tasty. No stuck issues. I also ordered vitafusion fiber n calcium gummies n can't wait to taste them.
  2. Thanks all for your suggestions! I went ahead and ordered me vitafusion calcium gummies and Fiber gummies from amazon.com. The reason I chose vitafusion over others is because I take their gummy Vitamins and they are delicious you people and I am not even a fan of gummies!!!!!!!!! I hope calcium and fiber gummies are as delicious as vitamins because when I ordered them they were expensive! Do u all count calories in your vitamins and calcium and fiber supplements because its going to cost me 100 calories for all of them!
  3. Hi all, I am looking for good tasting calcium supplement if anyone can recommend? I dont like chewable calcium and wondering if it comes in gummy bears or other styles?
  4. I bought a tub of pure protein powder vanilla from kroger and before I open it I want to see if anyone can tell me how it tastes? If u don't know how pure protein tastes please let me know which is the best protein powder out there? I'm desperately looking for good tasting, high protein, low carb and relatively inexpensive protein powder. Am I asking too much:-)
  5. Hi all, I had my surgery in June 2009 and I have lost 65lbs total. Slow weight loss until now but I'm at a plateu and can't lose weight with just band and exercise. Please give me ideas what should I do at this point to bump up my weight loss! I desperately want to lose another fourty pounds. Thanks in advance!
  6. OK, I lost 1.6lbs since starting the challenge. I will take it considering not watching my diet.
  7. I am in!!!!!!!!!! I want to lose 10lbs by christmas which I believe is 7wks away. Thanks.
  8. I did go on a new directions liquid diet for four weeks n lost ten lbs but after that plateau again! That's why I want to try this high Protein, low carb n low calorie diet for a while!
  9. Do you know this diet or is anyone here following this diet? I am planning to start on this diet next week and wanted your thoughts on it as I have stalled my weight loss after losing 62lbs. Seems like it's a well rounded good diet to me. thanx.
  10. Congrats!!!!!!!!!! Thats my dream to be in the wonderland!
  11. Hey all, I am really happy to report that I no longer needed a seat belt extender on recent flight and I was thrilled!!!!!!!!!!!
  12. I lost 1lb this week. I have 2.4lbs before I reach my goal for labor day challenge n I hope i can make it!
  13. I agree with this poster. Make sure u r drinking lots of water.
  14. I do n I didnt even know you cant drink coffee. Why cant u drink coffee?
  15. I am on this new directions liquid diet to jumpstart my weight loss for past 4wks and I lost 10 lbs in 3wks. Is anyone familiar with this diet? PS: I am getting tired of drinking Protein shakes and eating protein vanilla pudding and want to give up. But my issue is my wt loss has been stalled even after I do exercise and changed eating habits. My doc thinks I dont need a fill right now. I can eat easily 1500 calories a day on the band. What else I can do to increase my wt loss? any ideas?
  16. My doctor thought my lapband was a partial failure too because i was not loosing like others did initially. But after getting multiple fills finally i felt the restriction n started loosing. I lost 52 lbs in over a year now but I have to change a lot of things.......but finally it worked! Try changing eating habits, do more exercise n get a fill n see if that will jump start ur wt loss. I am on new directions liquid diet now to jump start my wt loss bcoz band by itself was not helping.
  17. I lost 4 lbs this week!!!!! I think I might make my goal of 16.6 lbs by labor day as I am only 3.2 lbs away from my goal n we have two more weeks to go.
  18. I am very happy to tell u all I made 50lbs mark now and 2 sizes down! It took me little over an year to do that but I am happy about that even though I always wished it happened little faster. It feels greaaaaaat to turn down 3x and 2x which I wore past few years and to shop for 1x's. Next goal is to lose 75lbs total and get out of plus sizes!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbup:
  19. Lost 2lbs this week even though I started TOM today.
  20. I lost 3lbs this week and wanted more because I am on new direction liquid diet to boost my weight loss since one week:tt2:
  21. Finally lost 2.4lbs this week!!!!!!!!!
  22. I am vegeterian and get my proteins from Atkins protein shake for breakfast and then make my own protein shake for lunch. Rest of the day I eat beans, oats, lentils, yogurt and don't worry about proteins because I already got my proteins in for the day. Sometimes I do eat eggs but they get stuck!
  23. Thanks all. If anyone else have any other suggestions please let me know!!!!!!!!
  24. Gained 0.2lbs this week even though I worked out 6days last week. I dont know what to change next????????
  25. Hi all I am desperately looking for some protein bars that are sugar free or low in sugar, low in calories, low in fat and taste good. Are there any protein bars which exists these specifics? I tried Atkins advantage and liked them but a friend of mine pointed out they are very high in fat, is that true? Please, please, please.......post your recommended protein bars which are ok with LAP-BAND® surgery and good for weight loss. Thanks in advance to all of you.............
