Looking for anyone in Northern Minnesota?
-
I love it!!! I know I was shocked at the little communities of ice fisherman out on the lakes here during the winter. Ive gotten used to it now and go our with my Minnesotan husband to his ice house now and then. This state is truly unique in IRS love of winter.

It is beautiful. In a raw beautiful and cold unforgivable way. I'm originally from Colorado. I also appreciate all the water and woods here. I live b Grand Rapids so same part of the state.

Its fishing opener here today and yes still ice on the lakes. Ridiculous!
-
Yes I figured its a shot in the dark but have to try!
-
I'm looking for suggestions and information from other vegetarians or vegans about their experience with lap band given the limited protein intake with the lifestyle.
-
I also wasn't vegetarian before banding. After meat being impossible to eat because I can't keep it down I developed a huge dislike for it. I love the vegetation lifestyle.

I'm always trying to get enough protein so I get kind of serious about it by adding chia seeds or hemp seeds and flax to my kale and spinach shake in the am. I just don't want any malnutrition issues or for hair to fall out.

It truly is uggg

You eat a lot like I do. I bought a nutribullet to be able to make a way to eat the vegetables and seeds edible for me. Since I was banded in 2009 I list my ability to eat healthy foods. Most of the foods I ate pre-surgery were impossible afterwards. I was so disappointed with my bad because of this. I was always able to lose weight before surgery but I was starving every step of the way which is why I'd gain it back. I got lap band to help with hunger.
