Thank you! I will try making them minus the lettuce, it amazes me how after only a few bites im so stuffed! I should be a skinny Minnie by now! Before surgery 310 Today 235 Goal 160

I love salad, but lately can not get it to pass thru my band. But if I really wanted junk it will go through , to tight or is salad a poor choice?

Someyimes I have no problems with soup but today I can't seem to keep it down, I am almost one year post op, what are you experiences with soup?

You went thru how many office visits with different docs to get this procedure to happen, you then had to.spend how long on liquids and how long recovering, how did you feel when you were 35 lbs down? Maybe more.energized, and awake...you went thru so much to get healthy dont undo it now go get some restriction and start fresh, dont give up!

Six Weeks ago I got admitted for another asthma.flare.up and because of the steroids it causes increase appetite an thirst the doc emptied my band so in six Weeks I feel like I did so much damage but when I went to him to get filled I was down three lbs suprisingly, ive been.stuck in the.240s for what.seems like a.long time now, so im hoping being restricted again I can break the curse of the 240s & keep losing. Part of my problem is I am afraid of.exercise im scared to have another asthma.flare up but I think if I do what he says by staying indoors.to work out it will be better. Just need inspiration to get my butt back into gear, please leave motivating positive comments here! Sorry for typos im on.my.phone lol

I am eight months out from being banded and I still am dealing with thinning hair and hair loss, after trying biotin with no results I went to talk to my doc and even with taking my vitamin d it showed in my lab levels that it still was not enough so they prescribed me a higher dose of vitamin d im hoping it works. I just started it so its to early to tell

I learned you shouldnt use straws beacuse it creates air an makes more gas causing your pouch to feel Fuller faster before you can even get enough fluids in

I enjoyed refried beans with a 1/3 cup of weight watchers shredded Mexican cheese it was good and packed with protein! Also did chicken salad, and lunch meats.

I am always in an out of the hospital because of respitory illnesses, I have a immune deficit so when I catch a cold my asthma goes nuts and unfortunately I can't seem to get better without the help of iv meds. So today when I went for my fill my doctor was concerned I lost a large amount of weight in just three Weeks time so I mentioned I wasn't feeling well and after assesing my vitals he called an ambulance to take me to the hospital. I know if I had gone to my pcp she would.have done the same I just was nervous to go because I have one week of my.med surge nursing class left and dont want to miss anything. So after a shot in the behind and some fluids an scripts they let me go home. Its frustrating because I thought by losing all this weigbt it would help my health instead of only my confidence. does anyone have asthma like this that impairs your quality of life? How do you deal ? Any tips are greatly appreciated!

Any drainage? Is it itchy? A little pink is not to bad but when I had mine done I was told itching meant if was healing....Ive had other surgies before and knew that itching was part of healing but when I told the.nurse the itch was unbearable and my site was fire engine Red she asked me to come in, it turns out it was a topical skin yeast infection a complication from the antibiotics I had gotten in the hospital. When in doubt get it checked out!

I can finally fit into a large at Victoria secrets and I really love their comfy PINK line of hoodies, tees an sweats. Shopping is fun now!
