Welcome back!

Congratulations on your weight loss. I understand running out of things to eat. I have no suggestions for you because I find myself eating the same things or using Protein supplements. I wish I could eat salads. That would be a change of pace. Good luck on your continued success.

Go to the food and Nutrition forum. Food and Nutrition - Lap Band Surgery and Lap Band Discussion Forum

There are tons of recipe ideas and I always follow the "what did you eat today" thread. I get great ideas on what others are eating and it helps me vary the foods I eat too!

thank you for the tips!! please feel free to email me anytime.. I am not too good at navigating around this site yet - Blaze...why can't you eat salads? I thought lettuce was nothing but water?? I guess it's getting stuck on you ,,, i am sorry!!

Even with chewing very well, I cannot get lettuce to stay down.
