I just switched to this app. I am looking for some buddies to add. There are a lot of women on here but I would like to add some guys. We loose weight faster so it makes sense to have some encouragement from the same. My user name is bandedjeremy. Thanks.

Ok, I just bought a couple compression shirts and shorts that are like underwear from under armor.I have never tried this type before.I am absolutely sold on these. Worth every cent. I bought them for a graduation in AZ last week.it was 95 degrees. These things keep you very cool and are comfortable. No sweating through your clothes or heat rash from a day of walking in the heat. Do not be fooled by the appearance of the size. I bet I am bigger then most on here but I fit into a 2x pretty well. They look super small. But you cram into them and man they are great. Happy shopping.

Has Anyone Tried Premiere Protein Shakes?
bandedjeremy replied to show1980's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
These are the best bang for your protein buck. Taste pretty good too. Costco is the place to buy them. I need to look for their bars. -

Secret Foods That Has Made Your Journey Easier?
bandedjeremy replied to okiekatt's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My wife and I were banded the same day. We bought a Vitamix and use it for everything! We are wondering all the time how we ever lived without it. We make high protein soups for after a fill, use it as a regular blender, make Smoothies that the kids love and wait for it..... ice cream. The ice cream is the best. Depending on what flavor you make it is 70-100 cal per 1.5 cups and 7-15 protein. Oh yeah, it only takes 10 min to make and clean up. Tastes awesome too. And no, I'm not a door to door Vitamix salesman. -
Wow that's great. You were banded one month before me. I am really hoping to he down 50# by May 1st. My wifes college graduation is then and I want a few new clothes.

My wife and I were both banded by Dr Fox. We have been extremely happy with him and his staff.

Well I got my first fill today. I was a little anxious because my wounds are not quiet healed. I am happy to report that all went well. The PA had to stick me twice with no luck finding the port. So she sent me to xray and did it there. It turns out she was pretty far off but the xray found it with no problem. None of the sticks were that bad. I thought they would be worse. I am a little sore now but no problems. Since I started the pre-op diet on 3-1-12 and surgery on 3-9-12 I am down 37 pounds. Pretty unreal if you ask me. All without starving. Let the new habits begin.......... Thanks for reading. Jeremy using LapBandTalk<br />Banded 3-9-12<br />Dr. Fox Dallas, TX

@B-52, they put just 2cc in. I travel for a living so we are taking it slow. I don't want to have issues on the road. My next fill will be 3-4 weeks. They told me to start mushies today to make sure I do not have issues on the road. So far no problems. I had eggs this morning and a bannana for snack. So far so good.

Texas Where You At???
bandedjeremy replied to jhaywoo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My wife and I were both banded on 3/9/12. We live in North Dallas. We took the week off afterwards and now feel great. This is the best I have felt I. Many, many weeks. Protein shakes from costco are the best and a life saver. Thanks for reading. Jeremy using LapBandTalk<br />Banded 3-9-12<br />Dr. Fox Dallas, TX -
I Need More Protein. Please Help!
bandedjeremy replied to Sammatha's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
We just found the Premier Nutrition protein drinks at Costco. By fat the best tasting to date. They have 30g protein 160 cal 3 fat 1 sugar per 11oz shake. 18 shakes for $22. Pretty good deal for the ingredients. Remember, protein from foods lasts longer then liquid form. Happy hunting. -

True Results Dallas, Dr Fox???
bandedjeremy replied to TexasSoccerMom's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
My wife and I just got banded last Friday 3/9/12 and Dr Fox and the whole staff is great. Awesome followup too. -
I just got banded by Dr. Fox who is with True Results. My wife and I were done on the same day. We went through Dr Fox outside True Results in his office. Not sure why they do that. I think it's for ins purposes. We loved the attention to detail and the surgery center was great. Keep in mind, you will need some kind of help the first couple days. We are still pretty sore.
