  3. hate to admit it, but i never quit. and i still smoke.
  4. i got banded june 2007, i am up to 8.5 cc in my band, and i can eat alot still. meats will cause me to go to the potty, or a heavy lunch. the mornings are tough cause i am so tight. but i have seen that after pbing i can sit back down and eat normally again. i am not sure if i have ever found the "sweet spot" everyone talks about. I just know there are times i can eat alot and then there are times i cannot not eat hardly at all. i get food stuck alot.
  5. i can remember losing 30 lbs in less than 2 months. that was years ago. would you be so kind as to tell me a daily intake of foods. i have been in a plateu for over a year and am back on low carb. been there 2 days. and are you exercising. i started back on tread mill yesterday. walked a mile. yahhhh!!!
  6. ok i had 2 scrambled eggs with shredded cheese this am, a store bought pack of peanuts with some water after church, and just ate a pack of cashews with water. started low carb yesterday. i need help i am starving here LOL. how should i approach this low carb, the detox thing. what should i eat and drink?
  7. started today with low carbing. at 226 (gained 8 lbs in the last 6 mo). my fault. can u give me daily menu. what to eat, etc. i cannot do all liquids. i will pass out. LOL.
  8. hi, glad this site is here. i got banded in june 2007. started out at 304. did great for the first year and a half. then starting eating like i use too, but in smaller portions due to the band. i figured out how to eat more with drinking, eating soft foods, etc. i am a emotional eater, we lost our home of 27 years, our business went from making 6-8000 a month to 1500. food is the only thing i can turn to when i am feeling depressed. i have had my band filled to 9 cc. I got down to 218 and stayed there for a year. over the last 6 months i knew i had gained but did not want to weigh. I decided to go for it again thru low carbing and i got on the scale this morning. I weighed 226. Happy cause if i had not had the band i would have gained 50 lbs. I am here for support. so far today i have had 2 scrambled eggs with cheese. 4 slices of summer smoked sausage with cheese. drank 2 glasses of water and lots of coffee. i will not give up my coffee. can you guys give me some pointers for menus and snacks.
  9. i was banded june 2007, did geat first year, well over the last 14 months lost 10 lbs, my fault i know. Have gained 12 over the last 3 months. I want to get back on track. Will start going to the gym Jan 2 of this new year. I just want to follow someone. Eat what you eat. Anyone willing to share their daily menu with me. PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!! I cannot afford fancy foods, just normal foods. LOL. I have a 10 cc band and I am at 9 1/2.
