Feeling Carbonation-Deprived...i Hate Those Mix-Ins - Any Drink Ideas? Sick Of Water....
Morganjm replied to indacrucible's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I bought kool-aid packets what ever flavor you like, then instead of adding 1cup of sugar I add 1/2 cup of truvia. Its wonderful, and u cant tell its not sugar, no after taste like splenda. I also make sugar free lipton tea, then just add 2 packets of truvia to my cup of tea and stir. Delicious!!! I was addicted to regular coke, about 5-6 a day, havent had one since july. Try truvia its all natural, not artificial. Use in place of sugar in recipes!! -

ev1988 how much have you lost since Feb? I had my surgery Sept 19th, ive lost 13lbs since then and 60lbs all together since April 4th. I did weight watchers on line from April-Aug. and lost 40lbs. The rest js from preop diet and then surgery. I see Dr Roscheibt at the MtVernon office. I get my 1st fill Nov 7th, a little nervous about that. I dont have any trouble eating anything now. But I probably will after fill. -

I am wondering if I will need these surgeries for excess skin after I reach goal??? I weighed 280lbs, so far ive lost 59lbs, and I notice I have a lot of skin already hanging on my upper inner thighs and under my upper arms. I didnt know if any of you were the same weight and had to have it or will the skin shrink up some??

Morganjm replied to tanieya's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes I can see a big difference. You look a lot smaller. This is great, keep up the good work. I have lost 58 lbs and cant really see much difference either, but had to buy one size smaller clothes. Yay for us!!!! -

Sounds great. I will have to save recipe for when I have fills and have to be on liquids again. -

Thank you all for the great ideas. I will have to try these. I dont have sandwich very often, but it would be nice with ham or tuna salad.
