Good info to know, i'm less than 2 weeks away from my first fill.

@Rebeccastl615, thanks for the good information.

I was just wondering if any franchise restaurants offer weight loss surgery specific menus? Or can anyone tell me who offers something close? I am in Southern California and want to have a nice meal away from the home.

I will try this recipe, sounds good.

Steven here from California, banded July 26th. As close as 4 years ago I was as low as 200. 320 is where my journey began, 285 currently. I have lost 35lbs as of today 8/17. It's nice to see so many people in the same boat I am. I have no complications to report. Foods easy for me to handle include fish(salmon, tuna, mahi mahi), chicken, oatmeal, yogurt, mashed potatoes, soft veggies and cream of pretty much anything. As far as eating habits, what has helped the most is putting down my eating utensil while chewing. Being active is really good for me. Lastly, loving this forum and this thread.

Hi, new to the forum and glad to see the success that the "Band" has brought so many. I started at 320, currently at 285. 105lbs more until I reach my goal. I am very excited. I made a poll to see where I stand compared to my fellow banded.
