  1. I'm new to the Rockford area and am looking for a new group. I'm 11 months out and need to get refocused!
  2. Been regurgitating food lately. Had my 2nd fill on 3/25. Since then things r tough. Can't really eat a balanced, regular meal. My Dr is on vaca, so I talked to the on call. He said a lot of things that confused me. Like lb does not help with hunger, 1 cup of food is too much (1/2 is better), has no idea why my hair is falling out (suggested a mega red everyday). Here I thought I was doing good, eating one cup and waiting 4 hours between meals. And I'm hungry a lot, is it unreasonable to expect to be satisfied for at least 3 hours? Buy the way, I'm down 46lbs but nothing since the last fill. Suggestions, advise...

    Yogurt suggestions....

    Anything with any flavor that's good has too much sugar. I read that u can mix a crystal light pack in a plain Greek and its good. Have not tried it yet...

    Totally normal!! Some days r tighter than others. I go with shakes and quest bars on those days, mushy foods also. Hot liquid helps. Good luck!

    BANDED JAN 4th no loss JUST GAIN :(

    U won't feel full. Measure 1 cup of food, protein first. Eat every 3-4 hours. Don't eat more than that, for now u r on a diet. Make good choices is fine, but u need structure.
  10. Go to emilybites.com and look for her Beef and broccoli. And every recipe I've tried has been great!
  11. I had a .5cc fill on January 24th. Was good for about a month, not hungry for about 4 hours between meals. Now for the past month I feel like all I do is watch the clock to c when it's meal time. I'm still watching my calories and protein, and workout 4-5 days a week. But I feel like the weight I lost this month is purely because of that, because I am sooooo hungry. Have a Dr appt on Monday thank God. Has this happened to u?

    Home vs Gym Workout

    I agree about not starting with insanity, its really hard and if u have never worked out with a DVD b4 u may want to try something else. I use a 4 DVD set of Bob Harper. I got it at target. It's very challenging and a whole body workout.

    Please help me clear up my mind

    With any weight loss surgery u have to eat correctly and exercise. Why don't u do that. Most people on here have to lose 100+ lbs and have struggled for years. I would love to have 30lbs to lose, not 110. No one here can lose without doing the work. Maybe you should do the work. I workout hard 5 days a week, u gotta sweat!!
  15. It looks like you r on track. I eat 4-5 small meals every 3-4 hours, which is: breakfast, snack, lunch, dinner, and maybe a small snack later. Try my fitness pal, an online tracker. I keep my intake around 1200Cal, but workout hard 5 days a week. Also, bulk up on water and hot liquids help with hunger, u love diet Coco. U may need a few fills to get to your sweet spot! Chin up, u can do it!!!

    guilty pleasures

    It's about a serial killer who has a "following". A group of people, disturbed people, who help him escape, kill, kidnap his own son from his ex who was involved with Kevin Bacon's character. Sooooo much more. Creepy crazy, but not as crazy as AHS

    Normal. It took me a couple Weeks to feel better. U r having gas pain, best to walk around your house and take Gas-x. Give yourself time to heal, and follow your Dr instructions. And take your pain meds regularly, don't wait till u r in pain, after a couple days it will subside. Congrats!!!

    When can I get a fill?

    My Dr had me wait till I was 6 Weeks out. U have to heal. For now u r basically on a diet. It's hard for now, but will get better. Stick to the plan, u will do great!
  21. Try looking at Emilybites.com, she has awesome recipes! Love the taco cup cakes!! I do cook differently now, low fat and high protein. And my family likes the new recipes.
  22. One thing I'm dealing with is not getting that full tummy feeling. I guess u can say I Miss it... But I want to be healthy more than I want to be full. it takes some getting use to, but if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything.
  23. I had a fill on Jan 24th. (first) is it normal for you to feel like you r in the green, but then after 4-5 Weeks start fighting in between meal hunger again? I eat small meals every 3-4 hours.
