Thanks everyone for your great responses. I do see how being healthy doesn't mean just eating fruits and veggies but a well balanced meal. And I can do that, I mean I already cook different food. As to the other question about being a cook rather a Chef, this is the person who is in charge and has the ability and right to change the menu or any aspect of the kitchen, staff, etc. As a high level cook myself I help advise him but still not a chef. He is in charge. So what are some of your guys typical meal. I've heard of these shakes but not sure of what they consist of. Also do you have things you won't eat due to it getting stuck or can you just chew it up really well. Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using LapBandTalk

So as I said I'm a cook who's over weight. Go figure. As a cook I'm constantly bombarded by food both good and bad. I've been doing research into the lap band system and really think it could help me, but I'm concerned about how it would change my "relationship" with food. Food is my passion, livelyhood, and 2nd love of my life. How have you banded masses dealt with this. Any other cooks out there? I'm going to my seminar on Nov 5. So I still have a lot of unanswered questions. Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using LapBandTalk
