Sounds good! Curious, did the cottage cheese make it creamer?

I too have sciatic pain for years. When I went to orthopedic Dr for knee he gave me a cortisone inj. & it helped for awhile. Eventually it came back, I think it's the way I waddle b/c of knee's. I found that stretches help the most. I got a sleep number bed and hot tub and they both work wonders. I had a bad car accident in Jan2012 and whatever wasn't hurting before hurts now. The # I use on bed that helped sciatic, now kills my neck & shoulders & neck / shoulder # kills my back. I think I'm going to sleep in hot tub. That my friends is heaven. I was really hoping that taking some weight off would help, but after reading this thread I'm not vary hopeful. Bright side, lose some weight and have knees replaced.

Say it ain't so jo!!!!

Looking good! Congratulations!

And I would not be guided by. Someone that encourages wl patients not to listen to their Dr. j/s

I've read about Ghrelin and it sounds like Mis73 is right.

Just in case Missy doesn't get back on, she posted this on this thread. It's called Ghrelin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghrelin I hope this helps you!

Bahahaha, that was a good one! True, if Michael Jackson can buy a Dr...

Bahahaha You'd think huh?

It's amazing someone can write for a major news median and be so ignorant of the facts. Geez!

Also my Dr said the size of a pencil eraser, which I think is about a pinky size.

ROFLMAO!!!! Missy not only are you smart, but funny too! Love you GF!!!

Congratulations! Do what aj said. Rest, walk, sip, sip

Everyone is going to screw up sooner or later. Don't be so hard on yourself. Glad you're being checked out! Keep us updated. T&P heading your way.

Congratulations on your WL! Your Dr does sound like a keeper. If it makes you feel better I'm 30 mins from my Dr too :/

Great job, Congrats!

Either lapband or gastric bypass the weight can be regained, both take work. My sister had Gastric bypass and lost a lot of weight fast, but has gained almost all back. That is why I chose LB not as drastic. KM is correct, research both surgeries before making up your mind. Good luck on your journey!

WTG!! That is awesome! Doing cartwheels in my mind with you. I also have pom poms.

Congratulations on your little girl! Wishing you a speedy recovery! Let us know when she has a name.

I liked your statement "There are no good food bad foods there is just WRONG portions" I'm going to put that on my fridge.TY
