No, im drinking the protein shakes as a meal, Not with meals. I do eat a protein meat at each meal though, Chicken, Tuna, Eggs.

Went and got a fill two weeks ago, Finaly have restriction! But I have been really good drinking my protein shakes and eating small meals of Protein first and then veggies. I dont think I eat over a cup of food in any meal. But Im keeping my liquid intake and protein intakes up. I havent cheated and had anything wrong. But after two weeks I have only lost 4lbs. This is soooooo frustrating! I feel why am I doing this to myself? No one else has to eat so little. UGH!!

I would agree that its fine tuning but I had restriction before just not as much as I would have liked, and now I dont have any what so ever so thats my problem.

Ok, so I have had 4 fills and was at 6cc in a 10cc band. I was almost at my sweet spot. I went on my 9 month appointment and told the doc I was almost at my restriction. He said good and then he gave me a 1cc fill. I drank a cup of water and things were fine. Day and a half later I couldnt even swallow my own spit with out PBing. Ofcorse it was a friday and I had to work all weekend, I didnt want to get really sick so I called the doc's office. They had me come in, I was seen by a diffrent doc. I told her if she would just take out .5cc that it would help. I didnt see how much she took out she told me it was just .5cc. but she had a hard time getting into the port. And now I have no restriction at all! Is it possible that she could have broke the tip of the neddle off in the port and it floated into the band and put a hole in it? Or do you think she just took alot more then .5cc's out?

Ok, I have had two fills so far. I was dissapointed about the last fill cause the doc only put in 1cc and i was hoping for 2-3cc but what ever. So for all of you out there whos at restriction, what is it suposed to feel like? I have issues with swallowing but I thought that is just because I dont chew well enough sometimes. Can someone tell me what it feels like? thank you

I'm not 100% sure but I have always been told that full time employment is based on how many hours you are scheduled to work not what you end up working. Companies have to offer insurance to employee's that work or are scheduled to work 32 hours or more. If you were scheduled to work more then 32 hours a week then you should have been covered. Even if you took sick or vacation time. Vacation time is considered worked hours. I agree with the others I would check into that cause it sounds like your getting screwed. Good luck! I hope that you can prove your job wrong and they have to give it to you.

I'm waiting for the day when my size goes down too! I know the scales going down but not my clothes. LOL! Im thinking I need to lose quite a bit before it happens. But sure would be nice to see. Hang in there!

I haven't been on this group forum in a while. But I read through this thread and it just suprises me. I guess its because I have never come across a lesbian that is all about looks. Yeah we all check out the hot chicks but when it comes down to it we settle down with a personality. I have been with the same girl for 14 years. Threw thin and thick! And now hopefuly thin again soon. We love each other, so looks don't matter!!!!! Yeah I went after her beacuse of her looks back in the day but shes the same person she was back then and so am I. We both have gained alot of weight over the years and we both want to lose it. But I never once said uh hun your fat, think you could lose some weight? And she has never said it to me. We both are more like as long as your healthy I dont care what your size is. Love is not about size or about looks, love is unconditional. If a person want another person to lose weight to look good, there is no love there what so ever!!!!! Readysteadygo, your reply post to her is great. I think this chick is a selfish pig. She must be a straight male asshole in lesbian clothing. LOL!!!

No, I don't have my band yet still waiting on getting a date. I have all my pre-ops done. I did get water in the basement but not much thank goodness. I know alot of ppl who have a lot of water in there houses. Where did you get your band?

You know, I don't have an answer to your post but I do have to say I am very ticked off that I haven't been able to be in my pool much this year!!! Oh wait, this lake that formed in my back yard might work!!!! LOL!

Well I must be odd man out I like Isopure, I drink half a bottle at a time in a glass of ice. taste like gatorade to me. I also like thier shakes. I get all mine at GNC they sell them in singles. The shakes are REALLY good with a half of bannana in them. But I think youll have to try all kinds to see what you like best. Like I said I like Isopure and I know of other ppl who also like it, but its all in what you like.

1. I wont miss not being able to use a normal bathroom stall (always have to use the handicap stall cause I cant wipe in the normal stall. TMI? lol) 2.I wont miss not having anything to wear to weddings. 3. I wont miss every one telling me just go on a diet (like I havent tried every one in the book already) 4. I wont miss avoiding my friends because im ashamed of myself. 5. I wont skip out on theme parks because I can't fit on the rides. 6. I wont miss getting nasty looks in the super market. Just to name a few. LOL!
