I always get a to go box... My hubby doesn't seem to want to share his food!!! LOL!!! Alot of times I order the sampler plate from most places ..it has different stuff for a variety but always something me and my daughter can share!!

I can eat salad ..but I must eat it slowly!!!! I think I end up eating more of the chicken on it than anything else!!! But I love salad!!!

Add me to the list PLEASE!!! Kimberlily~Wonder if we should make this a sticky thread so we can find it easier ???

Wannabelean~ Congrats on getting banded and please think about that right now your band is missing a very important part...A FILL! Until you are properly filled your band isn't woking as well as it could be. All the liquid you are doing is going straight through your band.Also your body is in shock right now ...it is use to you eating and when your not your body freaks out and starts storing whatever it can.Be patient the weight loss will come soon enough! It will take a while so sit down buckle up and enjoy the ride!!! At times the ride could be slow and at times it could be fast but slow and steady wins the race!!!!! Good luck and keep us posted on your progress!!!

Angie Good luck to you with your weight loss journey! Wishing you many happy healthy years to come!!!

Dee~ Best advice I can give you is PUT DOWN THE FORK!!!! You will be able to eat again and at times its gonna still be hard for you not to eat the wrong things and to much of them! I know it is hard and you feel like you will never eat aginbut you will. Hang in there and take each day at a time!! Good luck and congratulations on getting your band date!!
