Hi sunshine, this may sound crazy but what is a 0 cal food?? that way if i do get hungry after i get home from work @7-730 pm like gello? broth?

good question .i was band on the 5th of may this yr and was loosing great til last week i gained . the doc says its muscle she can see the inches lost from just two weeks ago but like others i wanna see the pounds go down or stand still not go up. this is all a learing and new experiance for us all and we just got to keep doing what we no best. return for clear for 5 days the full 5days this what a person told me she did when her body froze on the weight lost now she reached her goal plus an extra 10 pounds lost.

i bet if we look at the web pages 2-5 yrs from now we are going to see many other new bands just place the choice in the surgeons hands he/she done enough to know whats best for you good luck!

my port is doing fine now my doc said it could be due to the walking and exercise but she pressed and moved around the area no tenderness nor pain so im fine, thanks

im ya twin missy..lol congrats' on the lost keep up the good work and keep us formed

thank you so mucH! but what can i eat every 3-4 hours with out over doing the cal & fat ? the doc said if not hungry dont eat and no snacking ,geeez us im burnt at the brain. but thanks you was a big help

im sorry i dont mean to sound off the hook but can you give me a example of a 2-3 oz meal? is that 3bites of this and 3 bites of that? what about protien whats your total amount your getting a day ?

hello i went to the surgeon yesterday sorry for not getting back atcha but after working 12 hours shifts ya mind kinda go left filed, but she said when the port aches you are either lifting too much or its still healing this may take up to 2-3months to heal with me being a diabetic and if it it get to bothersome to contact her, so far im doing ok no aches or pain ( well except the day i tryed to walk 2miles) but that was only for a few mins, so good luck to you AND i have lost 44 pounds as of yesterday yeah boii, take care, God Bless, Marie

ok your arms are down but to be truthfull they look a lil off to me one of your nupples look un even to me but then again Oh shucks i know "who asked me"?! are they inplant?s or lifts? cuz after child bearing Breast feeding can cause your nipples can take a turn in and out

im so lost i cant figure out how to place my ticker on this web page can sum one lead the blind..lol well any wow as of today i lost 44 pounds

no Dr. karen M. MacKenzie of visaila ca did mine as of today i lost 44pounds! yeah boii

No dont get that surgery my body did the same thing what your going through and finally my body started respounding i guess it had coded due to the clear liquids and not real food go fig..lol but hang in there its very early just drink 30 mins b4 each meal and 30min after ( water or any non cal drink) this helps keep you full. keep walking your doing just fine be patient its ok , you had the lapband a slow but safe way to loose weight no the gastric. holla back if you want to talk

well i live in Tulare which is 45 mil south of fresno i was banded on the 5th of may this yr, and have my fill on the 28th doing great im down to ( as of this morning )268 from 298, by Dr. Karen M.Mackenzie of visaila ca, well good luck to you and god bless

this is true dont focus on the fills watch your food choice's A small amount for me might be taking a reg plate fixing it as if i would of done before surgery then taking half of it off drinking a glass 30 min (water ) before each meal walking a mile or 2 took 12 pounds off me this month and june is still here! i eat what i make for my family no one has a seperate meal just smaller for me. so listen to your body every one is different, what works for me may not be the answer for you and vise versa. hang in there be patient your doing a great job! all of you are for as what i can see.

as for me im just putting all the attention on me, and my kids i have been happily blessed divorced since 2003 and dated one time last year for a year when he found out i was having surgery he started to change late for dates, less calling, then have the nerve to tell me i might leave him for a nother man ( younger) so i told him why wait til then since he felt that way let drop this thing now before some ones heart get broke if there no trust and faith by now then hey why waiste my time as well as yours he looked like a kid being told NO CANDY! so dont ask..lol oh well now he calls wants to know how im doing everytime he call i say im doing great still dropin those pounds! and i make sure "i gotta go" every time he calls if we dont take time to study our selfs and watch us who will? were we are today are due to the choices we made yesterday! keep up the good work ladys and god bless all

lol thats so true so get ya walk on!
