Its Time! Headed To Doctors Now!
CHEZNOEL replied to smellslikecoffee's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Safe travels and keep us posted. Welcome to the first day of a new lifestyle! We are here for you! -
Put the doc and the nut in the same room and ask them to get their stories straight. It is too confusing for a new lap band patient to be hearing multiple voices that are not singing in tune!

So Close To Victory!!!!
CHEZNOEL replied to Crystl Bruce's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Follow you post-op instructions and when you are ready for solid foods, meet with the nutritionist for good suggestions. A successful Bandster is a compliant one! Best wishes as you begin your new life! -
Cereal/whole Wheat Toast/pasta/rice
CHEZNOEL replied to lovely29's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You can eat whatever your band will tolerate, you SHOULD be careful with empty carbohydrate calories. Always eat your protein first! Some bandsters have problems with rice and pasta, other don't. Focus on multigrain pasta, and brown rice, but only after your protein and healthy carbs ( veggies) -
Wwyd? Eat Shortly After Waking Or Wait Until Mid Morning (Hungry)?
CHEZNOEL replied to indacrucible's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I would say eat first. Low fat is beginning to look like a failed attempt to curb obesity. Atkins allows for good fats. I have always done well following that principle. Along with healthy band friendly meals -
Well. there are a lot of happy bandsters on here. My recommendations would be to browse the site a bit and read in the pre-surgery sections. Or buy a book. I am very happy with my decision, but I warn you, this is not a diet! It is a life style change.

You know what you are doing now is wrong, and you know what to do that is right. Just DO IT!

This Isnt How I Thought Id Feel!
CHEZNOEL replied to lisapereira66's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Keep the faith. I am sure others can see your weight loss. It takes a while for our brains to catch up. We have seen ourselves as heavy for so long, it is easy to miss the day to day changes. 42 pounds is fantastic! You can do it! -
The band can change how we perceive things. I can't do much sugar now at all without feeling queasy! Nothing to worry about. Who needed to eat sweet stuff anyhow? LOL

Just being able to enter and ride for 2 days is a major NSV. Don't play that down. Sorry about your accident, but confident you will get them next year! Congratulations on your weight loss.

Talk to your nutritionist. The calories each person needs varies.
