6 Weeks post - op and 18 lbs gone! I'm half way to my goal! I go for my first fill on Saturday! It feels good to feel good!

This is good info! I have not had apiece of bread rice or pasta since April 30, 2012. Lost 23 lbs pretty quick but the last 13 not so much . I'm stuck! Definitely giving this a look!

My baby I'm the crazy dog lady! She is my 7 y.o husky!

I was a BMI of 30 but self pay maybe that was the difference. Sorry to hear your frustrating news..keep searching you will find a doc willing to work with you.

I struggle with the same thing I have found ways of getting my sugar fix. We at all a work in progress.

Oh that makes me feel normal! Thanks for sharing!

I was banded 9 May and if I'm hungry I get left shoulder pain and if i eat to much I get left shoulder pain. I know this sounds weird but that is my cue either way.

Ate to much on Friday, pushed myself instead of listening to my body. I have pain under my ribs, a lump in my throat and no energy. I feel like I did one week after surgery. Of course I have nobody to blame but myself, but wondering if this is normal 48 hours later. I have had very little to eat this weekend, a protein shake and some tofu, mainly because I'm not hungry and it hurts to eat. Should I call my Dr. Tomorrow or is this just normal punishment for my bad behavior?

So true I set myself back 3 months! Uggg and I hate it!

I pd 15k prices vary by surgeon

Jim how long have you been banded? Head hunger is a huge struggle for me. Thanks for your feedback

Yup

Plant fusion, Arbonnes two of my favorite vegan protein powders

Google tofu salad recipes the possibilities are endless. I use vegan Mayo, and season as if it was real Egg salad or tuna salad or chicken salad. Thes best advice I can give is the super firm Tofu works the best
