    Celebrities With Lap Band

    I saw on line this morning that Sharon Osbourne had bypass not the band.
  2. Maddy do you really have to have the last word? Not saying you guys present yourselves a gang but you do as a click. Why can't you just let Sandy find the info she is looking for? I think we all are adults. Let's behave that way.

    Help! I just dont know what to do,

    Hey Thoma, You should be proud of what you have done so far. Besides lecturing you did the Dr give you any advice? Have you seen a nutrionist.? If are not comfortable with doctor maybe you should find another. You should not stay overfilled. My advice is to know how much you are allowed to eat and measure and track all your food. Eat slow and chew alot. Are you doing all this? Dont give up because someone is a jerk. You have done so well and you deserve to be succussful. I am here for support if you need it. Feel free to message me. Helen

    Didn't follow directions!

    Everyone goes through this. I keep a list of foods I have problems with so not to happen again. I commend then you shared with us and that you are back up on that horse. Even with a sore bumm. Best of Luck.
  5. I am on same as you. 3 half cup a day. I agree you really should set up an appointment with a nutritionist that works with your diet. For mushy foods i eat a lot of Beans, tuna chunk Light, canned chicken. It was suggested i could add Protein to sf pudding cup. Sometimes on mushy I eat instant mashed pot in broth mixed with lowfat cheese. Cottage cheese. If you have any questions please feel free to email me helyen88@yahoo.com. You can do it. Now a cup of food looks like a ton to me. take care. Sorry forgot you can also do eggs and fish. Dont forget to track and measure everything you eat.
  6. Cheryl you may not be able to keep it off and I may not but there are plenty people who do and can. Sandy don't let anyone make you not believe in yourself!

    Hungry!!!????

    Hang in there. If you can do liquids you can do anything. Stay strong and focuse.
  8. I flavor with sf ff instant pudding mix or pb2 if you like peanut butter.
  9. Hey sandy! Have you looked into weight watchers? You can check them out online.
  10. A lot of times you get headache due to detox. Please make sure to drink lots of water to help you cleanse.
  11. I am sure your doctor knows what he/she are doing and have you on a plan that they have seen work. If you dont trust your doctor you might find another. Your diet is acutally a lot easier then what I have seen other people on lately. A lot of people are on just liquids which is the hardest. Best of luck! What do you mean by you havent had any of the symptoms people have ?

    Fill once a week

    My insurance pays nothing dr charges my 100 a fill. I also have bcbs
  13. I had fill on Monday . I felt faint after and nausea after. Threw up my morning meds yesterday but was able to keep down food rest of the day. I started my period could that be part of it? Don't think I need an unfill and so far feeling like half way better so far. Any ideas?
  14. I keep asking what difference the band size makes but I don't get answers. If you are asking and telling people what size there must be a reason. Please share I really don't understand. Everyone is different. You can't judge by what others have.

    Celebrities With Lap Band

    Sharon Osbourne has been through a lot. First the cancer and then the double mastectomy, her sons ms. She is one very strong lady and knows what she is doing. I have noticed she has been Mia from the talk and Carnie Wilson has been filling in. Can't tell if she has lost. I guess maybe she learned her lesson after being so public about her bypass. Best of luck to her.

    Miserable Gas Pain

    I always hear its best to walk as much as possible. Raise your arms up in the air. Gas pain can be really bad.You said you just had surgery and they already took saline out?

    Unjury question

    It might be something else bothering you . It is kind of strange you have never had issues with dairy before now and then all the sudden with Unjury. Have you tried any other products? There are so many options and lots of dairy free as well. Best of Luck!

    Gum?

    I chew gum usually from after my meal until I can drink. I try to chew with xylitol as sweetner per my dentist because it helps keep tooth decay away When you chew gum, you swallow more often and some of what you're swallowing is air. In addition, artificial sweeteners, such as sorbitol that is found in some gums, can give you gas.
  21. You are supposed to feel satisfied between meals not full. If you feel full you have eaten too much.

    Latte Coffee

    Try sugar free. Coffee mates. They have 15 calories per tbls and 1 gram fat. I use two serving per cup and 3 cups decaf a day. They have extra cool flavors for the holidays. Peppermint mocha and pumpkin spice as well as others.
  24. Can anyone answer my question?

    Is This It Or Could I Be Too Tight

    I know a lot of people can't eat pasta and bread. Would make me sick. Maybe try mushy for couple days. Beans, canned light ( not white) tuna, canned chicken. Etc...
