bigcheese replied to BandedMi's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Im so sorry, be strong, u can do it, leave the room or go for a walk when ever he brings that crap in! He wants u to fail! He wants to control u, gain control over the situation -
I've never tried the soda, I would suggest nothing or a tiny sip of warm tea or broth.

In a funk and need to get back on track.....Please help!
bigcheese replied to msgabrii's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Can you buy things for your daughter you dont like? I love cheese but buy Swiss for my husband's lunch bc I hate Swiss, so I won't cheat. For the kids I buy yo kids yogurt, goldfish, Graham crackers, vanilla pudding, all things I dont like, but kids love! I eat egg whites with a little sprinkle of cheese for breakfast, veggie burger for mid morning snack, chicken taco or bbq baked Beans for lunch, yogurt for snack, turkey burger, meatloaf, meat ball, Pasta fagioli for dinner. -

I'm an attorney. Took 2 weeks. But I have 2 very young children. I'm glad I took 2 weeks. Could have done 1 week maybe. I would take at least 1 week off

I made one! I made coffee the night before in my kuerig, froze a few ice cubes, in the am put together in blender w/ FF FV coffee matte & 1 scoop Protein powder, was great, but will make a little more ice next time.
-
How do you make yours? I want to combine my coffee and morning shake into one? Should I just add a scoop of Protein to my coffee with a little ice in the blender? I know some people use instant coffee? I have a kuerig.

i loose in big chunks, so i stay the same or little lost for 2 to 4 Weeks, then in just days i can drop several pounds....bodies are weird, just still to it and it will show soon. probably all the fluids still. also are any of you fluids sodium? like broth, maybe even extra Fluid retention.....not to be weird but are you constipated? that can account for a little bit too.

good idea!

Worst Valentines Gift Ever!
bigcheese replied to the weight is over's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
just be careful you want to make sure you liver is ready for surgery. i'm sure u will be fine if u are prefect from here on out -
I've heard of this, 2 to 3 Weeks out, or around 30/40 pounds. its just ur body adjusting, same as any plateau, just stick with ur plan and u will see results. also see ur nut, i was at a plateau when my dr suggested it, i reluctantly went to the nut, i lost 5 pounds the next week!

i went back my nut last week, i was at a plateau for 3 months, then gained 7 pounds. i lost the 7 plus 1....i didn't think the nut would tell me anything i didn't know, but she really helped! -

Moms with young kids question...
bigcheese replied to Lovely Lioness's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I had two csections too,, its way easier. Try to get hubby to take some time off work. Unfortunately my husband couldn't take much time off. And definitely take 2 Weeks off work too. Your kids will be healthier too. Mine eat so much better now. Good luck to you and family -
