@@karina33 yes I do eat a lot of Protein. I try to get 70-80 grams a day. It is what my doctor wants so I work hard to stick with it. I go back to the doctor on June 16th and I hoping to be in the 100's again.

Awesome job! I was banded on March 4th and I am only at 4.75 cc. I can feel restriction though, and can tell a difference. Every person is different and you are doing wonderful. I do not go to the gym, but I go jogging outside and on the treadmill and I also use kettle bells and will jump rope. I try to work out at least 40 minutes a day 5-6 days a week. Good luck and keep up the good work.

I had a small fill last week of .75 cc and it seems today when I woke up I could feel the restriction more. Maybe it takes a week or so to really feel the fill. Hopefully you feel better soon.

Good luck! It will be over before you know it. Just remember that it is worth the pain, and my pain was not to bad. Keep us updated.

You are doing great! You look awesome! -
I also love the Questbars, my fav being the chocalote chip cookie dough. I also love the cookies and cream one also. I eat them a few hours after I wake up. They are low in sugar also.

I have the fitbit flex and it is a band that I wear on my wrist. I love it. It is a pedometer, also tracks your activity minutes, how many calories you burn and it can track your sleep pattern. Since I got it I strive everyday to make 10,000 steps. My husband has one also. I think it is a good investment.

I started mushies on week 3. The doctor should let you know when you can start that stage. I ate cottage cheese, scrambled eggs, pudding, apple sauce, low-fat cheese sticks and baked potatoes were my main foods. Please double check with your doctor first. Every doctor is different. Hopefully others have some ideas for you on soft foods.

Welcome to the site. I find this site to be very helpful. I was banded over 2 months ago and it sounds like you are off to a great start. Good Luck with everything and do not be afraid to ask questions. There are tons of people on this site that have great advise.

You look awesome and you are doing awesome. Keep up the good work! I can't wait for my 6 month bandaversary.

I really do love reading your posts. I have been in a blah mood today and this made me feel better. You look awesome by the way! I had a NSV last week as well. I was jogging at the park and I looked over to my left and saw someone running next to me. That someone looked good, and then I realized it was my shadow. I am finally starting to notice the weight coming off.

I have had this issue as well. My doctor just keeps giving me a pill to make it stop, and then it restarts your cycle. It could be the weight lose and hormone change. I would call your doctor though. There could be a serious issue. Good luck!

Awesome! Keep up the good work. -
I was told by my NUT to start B12 right away. I do not think I am deficient, but I take supplements that I buy from GNC. It will help with your energy level also. I can tell when I forget to take mine. Let me know how it goes.

I will have to look for that app. Thanks for the info!

Good Luck today! Sending good vibes your way!

Soft stop or something else?
chrissy10 replied to futureformerfattie's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I think lisacaron pretty much nailed it. When I was on soft foods I ate eggs, tuna salad, chicken salad, refried beans, cottage cheese, and chili. If I think of any others I will let you know. I really enjoyed the egg salad. Good luck! -
I am have been on Aleese birth control for about a month now and have had no issues. I did have an IUD once and when they removed it is when a ton of female issues started with me. I also only have one child and she is spoiled.

You look Awesome!

You are doing great. I agree with Bandista, take measurements. The scale can change just because of water weight. Just keep up the good work!

Mine was swollen for a couple of weeks. I would just double check with your doctor about your concern. I did not use ice or anything, just tried to avoid hitting that section. Good luck.

Mine tells me the same thing everyday. Do not worry and just follow the doctors instructions. -
Congratulations!
