I will be leaving for surgery on Tuesday. I have a question about fills. Will the doctor fill me during surgery or is this something I should ask to do? I am SO scared of not losing! Also How long after surgery before I will need a fill? Thanks so much for everyones help!

Snowbird, Peanut butter is not that bad for you, I mean you could be eating ice cream. I on occasion like a spoonfull here and there but I have to be in the mood for it. I also get migraines and pb is a bad trigger for them. I doubt you could over do it, but then again I don't really know you or how much of it you comsume at a time. I really think that it is a great alternative than other fat filled options. Plus we do need some types of fats in our diet for our hair and skin! Try buying the single serve peanut butters or the smaller jar. I have also heard on here of peanut butter powder that you mix up yourself, I seem to remember that it was really good and had really good nutrition in it. I'll do a search and see if I can find it for you.

This is a link to a company that sells powdered Peanut Butter... I was on a thread about it and will order some... I heard it is fabulous! Half the fat and calories.... and you mix up what you use as you go.... just thought that I would pass this on since you were mentioning peanut butter.

a fill ONE DAY after a surgery?????????????????? Hmmm, quite interesting. I have never heard of that. I am glad you are losing so fast. I have lost only 55 lbs and I still have 15 lbs to go. My BMI is finally 25!
