What are you having done? My surgeon...Dr. Adam Goldstein...does SmartLipo procedures that seem AMAZING. I def will be going to him once I am at goal. Check out the website http://www.sculptcosmeticsurgery.com/Surgeon.htm I'm from Gloucester Township...not far from Deptford at all. Who is your surgeon? when were you banded?

Add Flax Seed Oil to your shakes or salads. It has worked WONDERS for me. I tried EVERYTHING...and it has been the only thing to help

Anyone use their products? I'm going to buy the sampler pack and try some things. Was just curious if anyone has opinions...

I once got stuck on a tiny pill I took regularly. It got to the point I couldn't get ANYTHING down for 24 hours I had to have a complete unfill...I was soooooo upset. It's amazing how one day things are good to go...and another day they are not!

Does anyone use Shakeology? My cousin is using it...and LOVING it. I am going to give it a try...just curious if anyone has any input. Thanks

Thanks for the responses. I don't plan to use them often...but I think I am going to include them when needed.

Does anyone use Lean Cuisines or Smart Ones? Just curious of thoughts on them...

Anyone interested in starting a support group in Camden County? We could find a place to meet and meet weekly/biweekly?

Don't beat yourself up so much...this is a tough thing. I lost 70 pounds in the first 6 months after surgery...and gained it ALL back +5!!! I am now restarting because the band allows me to do that! I have gone back for fills and FINALLY have some restriction,,,but I know that is not enough...I have to do my part too. I am counting calories, eating the right things, and exercising. I know that I have to do all these things to be successful. I wish it was easier...but it's not. Stay strong...find what works for you...and don't compare yourself to others. No two people are identical in this journey!!!

I am so happy to have found this thread...I won't go into details...my story is like the original...lost all the weight...gained it all back...yada, yada, yada. I just "restarted" last week. Had several fills...finally have some restriction. Went and saw a nutritionist a week ago. I have lost 6 pounds over the past two weeks. I am looking forward to staying on track and working with my band. I would love to keep posting here for anyone that is "restarting"

So yesterday was my son's birthday party. I made sure to watch what I ate during the day to allow myself some cake last night. With sooooo much cake left over I was fretting last night before I went to bed about having it in the house and was questioning my will power. Well this morning I woke up...and it was covered in ants!!! After throwing the whole thing out then cleaning and spraying...I was smiling! Problem solved!

Picked up some PB2 and PB2 Chocolate today. Just added some to a shake...anyone else have ways they use it?

I know I am way way late on this...but Dr. Goldstein is the s@$t! He really is a great guy. He knows what he is doing. His office has tons of resources. I just started using his in office nutritionist...she is awesome too. Goldstein is great at what he does, has a great sense of humor, and I trust him completely. Make the switch!!!

Doctor's orders...2 Flinstones Completes a day. One in morning one in afternoon. Your body cannot absorb both at once.
