wow and i was just getting into the egg salad. i hope im still able to eat that and the chicken salad. i eat tuna one in a while but, not often. guess we will play the what works game again. i hope its not much that i cant eat as i cant eat alot of foods now. due to food allergys. i know after surgery i dont eat pudding much or squash for some reason. how that everyone has been banded does food taste different to you. i noticed things i use to eat dont taste good any more.

im trying ladies i really am. i know what you mean about the alternative. i love peanut butter cookies so i some times eat those 100 calories peanut butter cookies by nabisco. and they really help me out and fill me up. i have noticed that i do eat alot less then what i use to eat. i enjoy the band its cool. i have been reading this book called lapband surgery every thing you need to know before and after surgery. and im learning some things. i was thinking about going to a food theropist. does anyone else do this.

hi all, yesterday was my i walked on the treamill for 45mins at 2.4 . i burned 382calories. then i did 5sets of 15 on the outter thigh machine and 10sets of 15 on the inner. it was a good workout.

hang in there doxie things will get better. maybe you have to up your calories some so you wont get hungry as much. i ended up calling my dr to see if i could come in early as im able to eat more alot more. so they have me coming in on tuesday. i fell ok with that as i wasn't to come in for another month. maybe try freezing your yogurt i saw that on here before. if things dont get better soon maybe you should call your dr back and let them know that you might need another fill. great job pete

hey laurel sorry to hear about your mil passing. i baby pasted in may 20,2004 and i Celebrate his b-day every year some people call it crazy but, i think its sweet. we only maybe let off balloons or some thing in the air or wather for him. that's my way of remembering him:smile: any who i must say it does cost more to eat right than poorly. was looking at my south beach diet book and was thinking about doing that or the formula 40-30-30 which is a dieabetic diet which im not. the truth is that its harder for me now then when i was just dieting on my own. but, so far it still was worth it:biggrin:

welcome trina4ufl glad to have you:smile: and carebear glad to hear that are able to get you back in sooner. keep us posted on how the new plan is going.

hi everyone hows it going? we for the question of the day here is my responce. i learned that the band can either just be there and let you eat as you please or it can do its part and allow you to eat some food. if you do your part then it will do its part. its a learnig phase you have to learn to be partners with the band. if you do right by it it will do right by you.:wink5: but, im really trying to learn how to work with mine. its a learning experience but, im willing to learn.
