Weird, but entering One-derland was anti-climatic
Cvalentin21 replied to oldiebutgoodie2's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My reaching onederland was also very anti climatic. In my case I feel 198 is just still a little too close 200, like I may wake up tomorrow and be 200 lbs. I think when I reach 180 I'll be jumpin up and down on the scale lol -
Hi all, So i was banded 5 months ago on September 11 and so far have lost 48 lbs which i am so happy about. I had 6.5 cc's in a 9 cc band and starting getting hungry so decided to make an appointment for Feb. 17, my dr. put 1 cc in and a day later I was soooo tight I was throwing up my saliva i called my surgeon but he wasn't available till today Feb. 22 so i went to his office this morning and he decided to take all of my fill out for 10 days then he will start slowly refilling. I am kinda dissapointed I mean I am a gym addict 5 days a week for 2 hours a day but I am afraid that i may mess up what I worked so hard for. i am absolutely starving but so far have not let myself over indulge. Has anyone else went thru this? If you did where you able to stay on track?

I'm in same boat as you but this will my 4th fill. I am soooo tight happened to me with my last fill too. For me it was just the swelling and 4 days later I was fine. -
My wonderfully delicious Meatball recipe Ingredients: 1 lb. ground meat (I use 93% lean) 2 slices of whole wheat bread 1 cup fat free milk 2 egg whites 1 TBS. dried parsley ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese ½ tsp. salt ( to taste) Place the bread, milk, egg, parsley, salt, and cheese in a food processor and pulse untill well incorporated . It will be a very runny mixture Place mixture in mixing bowl and mix in ground beef The mixture will feel soft and moist. Shape into balls Bake meatballs in a deep baking pan @375* for 35-40 minutes with some olive oil cooking spray once your meatballs are cooked they are ready to be put into your favorite sauce( I use my own homemade) P.S. these are so soft that i place one in a bowl with some sauce and blended a little with my hand blender and was able to eat them as a mushy
