Im in...My goal is 15 lbs

hey I followed u...my blog is roadtoathinme.com

Im sure u will be able to handle the texture cause it is very mushy. I am not allowed that though because my dr said no bread, pasta or rice during this stage. if your dr didnt say no to those things then I think u will be fine

hey there is also a pizza crust made of eggs here is the recipe if interested... Deep Dish Quiche Pizza 4 oz. cream cheese 4 eggs 1/3 cup heavy cream 1/4 cup parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon chives 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning 2 cups Italian cheeses (I used the grated pre-packaged mix of pizza cheese) 1/2 tsp. wet garlic or 1/4 tsp. powder 1/2 cup low carb spaghetti or pizza sauce 1 cup mozzarella cheese Toppings i.e. pepperoni, black olives, green olives, mushrooms, ham, bacon, peppers, onions, etc. Beat together cream cheese and eggs until smooth. Add cream, parmesan cheese and spice Spray 9” baking dish (I use a pie plate), with oil. Put 2 cups of pizza cheese in dish and pour egg mixture over it. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes. Spread on pizza sauce, sprinkle on mozzarella cheese and add your favorite toppings. Bake until bubbly hot, approximately 10 minutes. Let it stand a few minutes before cutting. I like my cheese on top, so I add my toppings after the pizza sauce and put the mozza cheese on last

hey guys here is my blog www.roadtoathinme.com I followed the rest of you

hey dont worry ure gonna be fine..I was banded on 12/22 and Im feeling much better now. Like they said before the gas is prob the worst part but take ure gas-x and walk and u will be ok. As for sitting all day, dont worry. Once ure healed etc u can start exercising etc... lastly, I too like u like to cook and in fact Ive been cooking more now after surgery, even things I cant eat. I think its a theraputic thing but u can still cook after, just learn new band friendly recipes

hey the dr told me I would have a sore throat cuz of the breathing tube and I noticed that I get neck pains due to the gas they pumped my stomach with. Dont worry it goes away

i drink pure protein , they have 5 different flavours and u can get them in GNC or Vitamin Shoppe Unjury is ok too, just some flavors has an aftertaste

good luck guys...ure gonna do great.

hey to those who are about to be banded ...good luck...u guys are gonna do great, today is one week banded for me and I feel alot better already...I also lost 8.5 lbs so yay

hey I was banded on the 22nd and I also get this pain, I also get pain in my neck and shoulder...do you? I notice it really only happens at night after dinner so maybe it is gas. I dunno, Im going to my dr on thursday so Ill let ya know what he says.

i do chop meat, red sauce and ricotta...like lasagna without the noodles white flaky fishes are easy to eat too...i love tilapia I made mashed cauliflower that was good I also make guacamole or hummus for lunch hope this helps

hey every dr is different to what they want for the surgery..some drs require u to lose weight before, some just ask that u dont gain...my dr required clearance from a pulmonologist, cardiologist, endocrinologist, sleep study, psychological and nutritional evaluation and blood work before they would even submit to insurance. Best thing is to go to the informational and get all ure ?'s answered. as for the weight tracker click on one that u see (like the one below) and it will bring u to the website where u can make ure own...hope this helps and if u have anymore ?'s lemme know

welcome lynne...u are gonna do great..I am 4 days post op and even tho I am sore and gassy I also am ecstatic and know this was the best decision for me...if u have any ? feel free to ask

hey thanks for the advise I took some milk of magnesia and that helped..I finally started releasing gas last night (sorry TMI) and feel better already..cant wait to feel 100 percent again

bring gas ex I didnt and I regretted it

hey I had my surgery yesterday and the gas pains are horrific...any advise on how to get rid of it?

unjury makes a chicken broth flavored protein shake...havent tried it yet I start my preop on monday and then I will let ya know how it tastes

can you mix water with unjury protein shakes o do you have to use milk? the chocolate one says to mix with milk or coffee so Im a bit confused...thanks

hey to all the newly banded december bandsters...congrats and Im glad to hear everyone is doing well to those getting banded...good luck, u guys are gonna do great Im scheduled for the 22nd, start my preop on the 12th and reading ure comments has made my nerves calm down so thank you

Hey everyone, my surgery date is 12/22/10 and im trying to prepare myself for the post op diet. My nutritionist said I have to make sure that any food I eat must be under 5 grams of fat and 5 grams of carbs. However for the first month I can only eat mushy foods such as yogurts, cottage cheese, pudding etc... I went to the supermarkets and cannot find anything under 5 grams of carbs...if you guys know of anything pleaseeee let me know...Im getting desperate here thanks
