I personally do not eat shrimp very often. Try some tilapia instead. Shrimp is high in protein! I may start throwing it into my meal plans.

My bad - I didn't even notice lap band in the thread title! I'm used to this app being a sleeve app until they changed it to all bariatric surgeries. -

Yes. I dip my fork and then stab my salad. How far out are you? Salads never been an issue for me. I can eat raw veggies all day. -

Cracker Barrel - scrambled eggs, turkey bacon/sausage, and their yogurt . I eat half and take the other half home for the next days Breakfast Panda - bowl with steamed veggies and grilled chicken teriyaki pizza - 1 piece or the toppings only Subway - salad with the dressing on the side Saltgrass or Texas Roadhouse - split a steak with my husband and eat a side salad with light dressing Mexican restaurants - taco salad or fish tacos and share with my husband - I don't eat the corn tortilla or fajitas and just eat the meat and veggies - ask them to not cook with oil Starbucks - decaf, skinny French vanilla latte and I get their Protein box for food Wendy's - chili Mooyah - turkey burger iceburg which means no bread -

They need to get over themselves! My dad was horrible to me and said I was going to die! Well guess what, he got the surgery one month after me! Keep your head up. This is not a piece of cake and takes work but it's definitely going to help you! It's a tool and no tool works without all the pieces doing their part -
Thanks y'all one day at a time.

I try to stay between 800 and 1000. I wish my pouch was smaller. Nothing makes me sick either! I sometimes wish sweets would make me sick lol -

4 Things I Wish I Would've Known Pre Op
mschlegel replied to Tink22-sleeve's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Negatives: 1. I wish I had known that two Fiber chews a day would have stopped all my pain earlier! I'm good to go now. Take fiber!! 2. I wish I had known how tired I would be the first three weeks. Once past that all gets better. 3. I wish I had known that I really needed to work on my mental thoughts about food too. I focused on portions. Now 7 months out I have major head hunger. Not really hungry EVER but my mind thinks I should snack all day. Constant challenge 4. Wish I had known about this surgery sooner. People need to talk more!! 5. I wish I had known how challenging it really is to wait 30 mins before and after eating Pros 1. I feel amazing 2. I feel sexy 3. Happily married but guys consistently gives me looks and it's awesome! Lol 4. Sex = Amazing TMI sorry, don't want people to miss out on the truth! 5. Buying clothes is so rewarding 6. I've saved three friends by speaking up about the surgery and helping through the process - for the surgery because I told them about my experience 7. My dad is alive and had the surgery after me - he was anti surgery until he saw my success 8. I enjoy healthy foods that I would have never eaten before 9. No more blood pressure issues 10. No more sleep apnea 11. Size 20 to 6 I could literally go on and on! -
Thanks Mitz! I know you are doing well too.
