Cont. Also, you are only a year out and 40 pounds is GREAT! Now, start over. Go back to the beginning. Shock your body & do 2-3 days of protein shakes. That will take the 5 llbs off right away. Then start exercising if you're not already. Walk briskly. Are you drinking your water (very imp)? Eat more protein. I add protein powder to my yogurt. I do lots of diff stuff. No sweets/junk.

Hey there! Yea for March 31sters! Yes, I am on a stair-step diet. Right now I can have stuff like yogurt, milk, creamy soups, protein shakes, etc. On Wednesday, I get to have scrambled eggs and oatmeal, mashed potatoes! WOW I can't wait for that, lol. You know, I could never be a vegetarian, I miss meat
So, how did your surgery go? Mine, being the first surgery I have ever had was smooth as silk! Pain was minimal, tolerable. I went back to work yesterday, maybe a little too much excitement, but doing o.k. You?

Hi Setta,
All is well with me. I'm feeling about 90% of my former self. I've been having regular BMs all week. I'm still having regular gas pains in my tummy and shoulder pain. I was thinking maybe I'm becoming lactose intolerant as they always seem to kick up whenever I drink a shake. Last night I was trying to eat a yogurt and I had the worse gas pains kick in that I couldn't have but a couple of spoonsfull. I start the mushy today...yippee!.

Mitilda I am sick to death of milk! Its so boring and bland and if I never drink it again it will be too soon. But I am not so hungry now and I havent had any headaches so not all bad. I have been drinking plenty of sugar free squash so I think that has kept the headaches away. I still want to eat everything and my sense of smell is heightened so anyone eating near me is torture.
I am just glad I am allowed yogurt as its the only flavour Im getting. I have lost 9lb now and I have noticed that my clothes are getting loose. Thats always encouraging.
But to be honest the only thing keeping me going is the fear that my liver will be too big. I do not want to wake up with no band because I cheated. I am going to give this 100%. Are you being good before your pre op or are you having what you think you will miss? My advice is to eat food with plenty of flavour rather than volume because believe me its the flavour you miss!

You are so much better at taking your vitamins than me! I haven't taken them in awhile. I usually get enough calcium from my diet, but a good multivitamin is in dire need. I have lost a lot of hair, but my hair is still pretty thick (it was SUPER thick before and I'd have to get it thinned out!) I'll definitely let you know which ones don't suck. lol
I'm going to Clearwater Beach. It's the Allegiant Tampa/St. Pete flight. I'm going with 7 other girls. I cannot wait!! I've been 2 other times, but in a size 26 and 24. I'm going in a size 18 swimsuit this time

I do occasionally drink protein shakes if I'm feeling particularly tight. Does your band tighten on your period? I use the Bariatric Advantage Chocolate. I had the Banana ...it was AWFUL. I can still remember the taste in my mind. I just ordered a sample of their vanilla. I want to start drinking more of them with blended fruit or low fat/sugar yogurt.

Doing pretty well here, too. My diet has been a little screwed up b/c it seems that there's just one thing after another going wrong. First, I had thrush....so I had to start yogurt early. Then I had severe constipation, so the docs told me to go ahead with the mushies to get things moving along...almost wish I hadn't. Had to go to the ER at 3:45 yesterday morning - the most painful thing I've ever experienced, including 3 natural childbirths. Now I'm not eating anything at all - not b/c I can't - but because I'm just scared to. lol...I've lost a total of 30 lbs from pre-surgery till now, but haven't lost anything since the 5th day post-op. It could be the mushies that I started, but they were low-fat/low-cal and I was only consuming a little over 300 cals a day. I hope this is not what I can expect from here on. I need more than 300 calories to function properly! I go back to my surgeon on the 25th for my 2 week follow up appt. I was really excited, and now....not so much.

hello... i haven't heard back from you... Is everything okay? I'm fine... it's a process and having my hernia fixed during the lapband installation has made my recovery very long-winded. I am still on clear liquids... it seems like forever... almost a month. but tuesday i start full liquids. So i can add yogurt, pudding, and cream soups... so that will be a change... How are you coming along?

I'm sorry that i couldn't get back to you sooner, i just got home from the hospital yesterday. My surgeon also fixed a large hernia while installing my band...so i'm still pretty sore but dong alot better now... how are you feeling? I'm still on clear liquids for another week... so even though i'm really not hungry yet I'm looking forward to some cream soups and yogurt next week...LOL I never thought i'd say that. How's everything with you? *Maria*

The nut was great. I do like her and got lots of good eating tips for my pre-op, oh yeah, 2 weeks baby! But there are a number of 'acceptable' things on there that I won't feel like i'm starving too much. yogurt, grits, mashed potatoes!!, jello, pudding, sf popsicles and lots of broth. Still trying to figure out how i'm going to smuggle some of that with me to disneyland! I have a friend or two in the area, i'm thinking a ride over to the grocery store will be in order for my foods.
June 2nd, huh, ouch...that is a long time to wait. i'm sure it will be here before we know it. next week?
