Crustless Quiche - aka Baked Omelet
Formerly Fluffy replied to Rambunctious's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thanks for posting. I love quiche! It has also been a good Protein source for me since being banded. -

Yes I went to a band mill and they lied straight to my face about post-op band complications! -

By reducing stomach capacity, the LAPBAND ® System can help achieve long-term weight loss by creating an earlier feeling of satiety. -

No, I don't need to change my definition of anything! U don't know what MY definition of that is so don't be assuming! -

Some may not have a clue how it works. But if they don't they don't need to be selling the surgery. It's very unethical for the Drs. (and this is NOT all Drs.!) that know how ineffective this surgery is and continue to do it! -

Because I have been observing this for over a year now. The facts speak! It hasn't workded for me. It hasn't worked for most ppl I know. It hasn't worked for most ppl that I have observed online. IT DOESN'T FREAKING WORK MOST OF THE TIME. *IF* it works for u..............then great. However it is NOT the case for most bandsters! -

Yes I see that you are a believer. A lot of us were believers untill we reallized it didn't work! If u think it works for u that's great. For most of us...............it doesn't. -

So true Maddie! Although I think all of us realize we need to eat better to work WITH the band. We did NOT spend all this money to do it ALL by ourselves! I hear all the time..............."the band is just a tool". Yes, that is true. But for some of us..............WE HAVE NO TOOL. IT JUST DOESN'T WORK!!! :-( -

I wish...........but I don't think. :-( I have had my band 14 months and had 14 fills. I have followed band rules. I have given this more than a fair shot. It just does NOT work for most ppl. I hope u have better luck with it than I have!!! -

Well the band does NOT take away my hunger.........and I have noticed it does NOT for a lot of bandsters!!! To all of you that have a band that is working, I am very happy for you. However you need to realize that the band does not work for most ppl. -

I saw that. If restriction is irrelevent..............then why are all these bariatric Drs. saying that after a certain point with the fills that you will have "restriction" and will then be able to eat less and stay full longer??? -
Your serious? Really? You think wine is an acceptable drink during the post op liquid diet just b/c it is a liquid??? Aw come on! Why don't u just have a Jack and diet coke?!

But it IS about restriction! That is why we got this surgery isn't it? To have restriction so we would fill up sooner and not eat as much and not be hungry all the time. -
how to lose weight with lap band
Formerly Fluffy replied to mnguest's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Get some Papaya Enzyme. It helps break down Protein. When your having problems with the protein getting stuck eat a few of them. It's a digestive enzyme. -
Is it what you eat or how much?
Formerly Fluffy replied to DeboraY's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I think it should be both. We all need to change our diets to eat healthier, but obviously we got the band to eat less. -

Formerly Fluffy replied to Emma Grace's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Emma I am discouraged just like you. One thing I am not hearing in responses is concerning restriction. If u don't have restriction then it's just l ike trying to lose weight before we got the band. :-( Unfortunatly some ppl never reach restriction. -

Your friends are 2 of the LUCKY ones. Most of the time.........from my observation........THE BAND DOES NOT WORK! :-( I paid cash for mine also and it has been a complete waste of money!!!!!!!!!!!! -
Does anybody know about about BlisPay and Care credit
Formerly Fluffy replied to Ligia39's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Your just going to have to call each company or apply online individually. Your rate is going to depend on your credit score. -
Almost 2yrs and 100 lbs with neck and shoulder pain
Formerly Fluffy replied to tutornmom's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
It seems like I heard another former bandster mention this. When I see her again I will ask her about it and try to post if it's relevent. -
My fills are $100. I have had 14 fills and NO sweet spot. The band does NOT always work as they claim it does!!!
-
I was lied to also so I fully understand how u feel! I asked specific questions and they lied straight to my face!!!
