why dont you just call your dr in the morning and ask just to be safe we all are different with different physical ailments and situations. your dr would know what is best for you

just wanted to say, splurging is what got most of us who needs wls in the first place food is not the enemy. overeating high fat, high calorie foods are. i had a last meal before my pre op but i went in this band with a new outlook eat to live and not living to eat.

been banded nearly 5 months and havent thrown up once like dylan said, hew alot, eat slow, small bites and you should do ok. no sense worrying about stuff that hasnt happened yet......

he respectfully submitted his historical research for us to ponder it seems..

you know i recall reading and hearing about this.

well, as long as you keep sipping and getting as much as you can you will be okay i would say the more the better. i am 4 1/2 months out and drink me a shake every morning i wont and neither will maddy or aj or jeannie let you give up..

do you drink any Protein shakes by any chance?

i get mine at CVS pharmacy (its the cvs brand) my dr okayed it and that is good enough for me

great.......now they think its that vd dork

i do find it hard to (remember some times) too much cabo wabo in my past.......

congrats on your surgery and of the upcoming birthday.its best to follow your dr's orders. you are still kinda new since surgery. i agree with the other poster, sf pudding never hurt no one and its yummie parties are about being with family. remember why you had surgery, to lose weight. just think of this as a stepping stone. you can do it. i know you can. how do i know, look how far you come... but you will get many responses most likely saying this or that, like me so if you want to know what you can or cant have, ask your dr to make sure. he may say something you dont expect. ps my dr is very strict also.

it depends on the size of the person also. larger people can lose more. (remember its mostly water) but its a loss and it counts. dont get hooked up on a number. but so far you are doing great. and in regards to cheating, its not okay. you only cheat yourself. all the best on your upcoming surgery.

gagging............ thoughts/opinons?? chimers??

oh, yeah i did forgot

dont mess w/TX........yawning i bleed carolina tarheel blue you all

i just make sh** up as i go must be a southern thang.... ...........not with the band/plication though...that is on the up and up

OUCH that f***ing hurt.....

what the bloody hell is a soap box anyhow??

well, when i started my pre ops, they said no more soda (or after) so i stopped the first day. had a headache for 3 or 4 days and now i do not miss it. i drank it and had stock in it...trust me, its gonna be okay w/o it. you wont die from not having it.

nearly 41 dollars to fill up my car this a.m. what is happening? i guess i should not complain as it is higher elsewhere..today it was 3.55

dont be nervous just go slow.....sip and sip what is the rush?? your doing just fine honey

maybe pmsing but still damn gorgeous and my nails......even gorgeous-er :wub:

well, just hang in there sweetums you are doing GREAT

because what you overeat in (private) will show on the scale (or clothes being tighter). so if you overeat, its on you. ps----if you fall off track, just keep going. dont do any tricks. just eat smart but think smarter.
