    Stress Making Me Tight!!

    I have been in the same place many times! My last time was just 3 wks ago. The best thing is to try liquids & mushies for 2 days to reset. This always helps me. I tend to have my meat pureed or very moist as i am so tight. Right now i have 2 protein shakes a day & a oh yeah protein bar to keep up my protein levels. Cheese always works well for me too. I was thinking of geting an unfill 3 wks ago but i have now gotten my cals up to 1200. How many cals a day are you getting. Good luck & any assistance let me know. K
  3. Didnt know they have liquid ones for adults. I take gels caps or kids liquid. I take with a protien shake so it doesnt burn. I suffer from migraines. Good luck!
  4. Tomorrow is a new day! A fresh start! Go back to the basics as if you were just banded. Read all your material and plan your meals & try to get some exerise to helpbyou feel better and for your depression. Make a commitment to eat all meals even if you have a high protein shake for when you are on the go. Bars are easy to pack to. Start small and before you know it your back in the game. Good luck! Make youself a priority!
  5. Ken - thanks for sharing! Great work! I beleive in little rewards too! Keep up the great work!
  6. I didnt tell anyone except my best friends and 2 sister-in-laws and 1 brother. My hubby and BFF were amazing. My BFF was banded 8 years ago. I didnt tell anyone until after my surgery as i didnt want to have a debate and have them talk me out of it. Or bigger yet what if i failed or my surgery was prosponed. My hubby even did the pre-op diet with me. When i told everyone they have been my number 1 fans. My dad wanted to tell me about the procedure 6 months prior but didnt want to offend me. I was self pay and for my birthday and 8 month mark my dad gave me cash for 80% of the surgery cost. The band has changed my life! 108 lbs later BMI from 45 to 26 in just over a year. Now i am 15-25 lbs from goal. Now i tell those close to me and i am proud to be banded! I am a role model to others now! Most importantly i feel amazing and have a great life ahead! Good luck!

    Prayers Needed, Please.

    Angel, sorry to hear of your loss! Never easy! My mom left us 18 years ago. Do you have a plan at work that you can get grief counciling? That has helped me over the years? Any assistance i can offer let me know! Prayers & hugs!
  9. Had a good workout this morning and burned 625 cals and making good food choices. Have a great day all!

  10. The costco Premier ones are my favorite. Lucky I go to the US to get my shakes for variety and price. The Trick is you really want shakes that have the isotate in them as they we will fill you up faster and you won't get hungry for awhile. In Canada the Costco Premier don't have the isotate as they do in the US. GNC is good for Muscle Milk. In the US I hit Costco or Vitimin World. I also like Lean Body as they are 25 g Protein, 1 g sugar & carb. In the US Wallmart is also great too. Keep up the great work. Cheers, Kristi Vancouver, BC
