    Is It Me?

    I have noticed that after I work out I can eat more than a cup of food (protein and veggies)if I allowed myself to. Has anyone experienced this?

    Congrats you look great! The proteins i like are cottage cheese with blueberries or tuna salad. Baked chicken breast or baked talapia with lemon pepper. Hope that helps.

    Band Over Bypass And Not Losing Yet:(

    Hi TarraB, im also a band over bypass and can say that it does take time and patience along with portion control and health food choices. Mis73 is correct, it can be hard in the beginning. Good luck

    Alchohol And The Band?

    Great question. I have a question, how long after band surgery should one try and introduce wine or alcohol?

    Hair Loss

    It can be brought on by the anesthesia from going under during surgery. The other reason can be the lack of nutrition from being on the liquid diet before and after surgery (depending on your docs instructions). Hope this helps
  21. I had my GB on 7/24/08 and gained, then had the band over bypass 9/26/12

    Anyone A Band Over Bypass?

    I would't say i was forcing food down, over the years the pouch stretches due to poor diet like eating pastas, bread, and not making good healthy food choices. Therefore the weight started creeping back up. Hope this answers your question...... good luck with your journey.
  23. Looking forward to going back to work today :)
