Those who have been banded, what are you eating?
Blaze21 replied to zeama's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I was banded on the 8th and had my follow-up on the 24th and my doctor has moved me to regular food. 3 meals/day, no snacking. So I've had deli lite turkey and shredded wheat so far and still drinking my sf carnation instant breakfast -

I'm also having a hard time getting in my protein. Aside from going through 8 different protein shakes I didn't like, I'm just not able to intake enough protein. -

No time to do anything.
Blaze21 replied to LeslieR041906's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was told about the 1-2-3 rule in my support group meeting, which can be helpful. If you don't have a large amount of time to exercise, then you can: 1. Take 1 30 minute walks 2. Take 2 15 minute walks 3. Take 3 10 minute walks They say it counts to break up the exercise if you can't do it all at once. -
Welcome to LBT and good luck on your journey.
