Liquid to Mushie stage
CHEZNOEL replied to 1fitmama13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Anything fork tender is mushie. Just because it is mushies does not mean it has to have more calories. Just don't panic, and don't weigh every day. -
Protein/Frozen Yogurts
CHEZNOEL replied to Blahhhhh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree... watch the OJ sugar content. Use Almond milk and any flavor of protein powder. If you want frozen add ice, or freeze a try of almond milk. I use the unsweetened. -
For small to moderate, I would expect that the surgeon will correct during the lap band procedure. Most seem to. Good luck!

Looking and feeling good.... what else is there in life!

MsRhonda... STOP typing NOW!

Ideas for people who don't like breakfast
CHEZNOEL replied to Terry Poperszky's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Anything can be eaten at any time of day.. not sure why the world is so hung up on specific foods for breakfast! -
First social event tonight! YIKE!
CHEZNOEL replied to 1fitmama13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Stick with water... dehydrated from the stomach bug, but did not want to disappoint your friend. It is likely no one will notice. We are much mor aware of our behavior than others. Good luck! -

Thing are getting better and better! -

CHEZNOEL replied to MsRhonda's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
MsRhonda... how about a bigger pillow on either side so you can't roll over? I will interested in seeing what the doc has to say. Hang in there, you are doing great so far! -
I made It, Home from surgery...Now a bandster.
CHEZNOEL replied to Daron1965's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Welcome aboard the band wagon! -
Sounds like time for a second opinion.

have a date now but now getting nervous!
CHEZNOEL replied to ErinSue2000's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well congratulations, you are normal. Nervous and anxious is what happens about now. I always used to do the same thing if I traveled without my kids. You will be fine, and healthier for longer of their lives! Take a deep breath and be happy! -
Try adding fruit, PB2 (a dry peanut butter powder without the fat), Choc and banana, Vanilla with Frozen strawberries, peaches, blueberries.

Best Wishes, I am glad you have a plan to correct the problem! -
My Friend is Trying To Talk Me Out of The Band
CHEZNOEL replied to fashionstylist's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Shades of my older daughter. She really flipped out. Still will not talk to me about it. But change my mind... NEVER!!! It is the best thing I have ever done for myself. Take you friend with you so she gets educated too, and maybe you will find a supporter after all! -
Flat ginger ale (diet of course) helps me with nausea.
-
Here is just fine. You lost well at the beginning, just lose the cocky and go back to what you know works. If you want it it will happen!
-
You should not have problems with protein if you are eating the right portions. Carbs are for gravy, you should get energy from protein.
-
Sounds about right. Congrats on your approval! You are on the way!

Lapband and that time of the month??
CHEZNOEL replied to Tina Ramirez's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Probably so... don't worry, having an extra is better than missing one! LOL -
Yes, this is common especially if you are using your abs.
-
Anxiety and nervous are perfectly normal to feel right now. Keep yourself busy and focus on other things for now. Or... get busy preparing for the pre and port op diets. Shop for protein drinks and powders that you like. Order UnJury Chocolate Splendor online. Everyone loves it!

The Perfect "ME" Day!
CHEZNOEL replied to Spaness2012's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Great solutions.... after all, we deserve the best! -
Doctor filled band half full during surgery
CHEZNOEL replied to Giovy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Depending on the size of the band, most docs leave some fluid in the band during surgery. If you do not feel hungry I would not automatically schedule a fill. Just go in for the check up and discuss with your medical team. -
Banded this morning!!! :-)
CHEZNOEL replied to mickeybeyes's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Congratulations! Walk when you can to help reduce the gas pains later.
