I'm going to try some tuna fish this week also.............are you allowed to drink the soup with cream and all that cheese though? My doctor would have a fit...........I can only have low fat , low calorie soup, not even soup from a tin, only healthy stuff.

So well here goes the first thread for us all. Three questions 1- What stage of eating are you at now? :biggrin1: Me I am at liquids but more mushier, fuller liquids, been trying a few things like avocado and blended black Beans, go to mushies on Wednesday:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: 2- What's your fave food at this stage of your diet?:biggrin1: Mine is blended black beans and a dash of blended avocado, also pumpkin Soup, yummy, I am getting good at making my own...........even my friends children liked it, I think the secret is to add a rasher of bacon. 3- What food are you missing the most since you got banded?:biggrin1: It would have to be curries with chicken and fish and sushi for me..........hope they will agree with me later......... Ok lets see how this practice thread goes for us :eek: Love from Amourette:hungry: :hungry: :hungry:

Hey just bumping
-
That sounds good Marypetunia.........I don't want to blend food either.........I have been blending my soups and it just feels like the same thing,...........isn't mushies like mushing with a fork?

3 weeks out and NOT LOSING WEIGHT ! hmmm
amourette replied to kaybee's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Hiya Kaybee, actually we are just in the April Bandits thread, discussing exactly the same thiing right now.................we have all been told by docs to forget about weight loss until first fill that is when things start happening, also having enough water ( I don't) . I am only starting mushies today and am not allowed to exercise for another 2 weeks, except light walking.............I guess we have to just be patient? Have a look at our thread, that might help also, you are not alone! Kind regards Fiona -
Seems like we are all starting to hit the same problem............I lost 2 pounds last week, and I am still on liquids...........:clap2: yippee today is my first day of mushies, where to begin?????? I had a few blended foods occassionally last week, my fave being black Beans and a smidge of avocado and hummus!!! My doc also said not to even think about weight loss till first fill, but it is hard isn't it? Hey Alison has your doc done anymore ops since you now?? I don't know when my first fill will be, I go to docs on 25th May so will see then, I think he will only do it if I need it and am coping ok with real food, so maybe a week later for me too with you guys. Thanx for that Kat, that is interesting to know, I am NOT drinking enough Water or eating enough food, and ooops already had my first PB, wasn't bad at all! Cheers Amourette

April 2006 Bandsters - Running weight loss totals
amourette replied to Bostongurl's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Geez............I can't BELIEVE how long our list got..........amazing! -
I wouldn't worry about your primary (does that mean family doctor?). It isn't his field of expertise so I would get that appointment to the specialist made and take all the same stuff with you........it sounds like you have worked so hard on your research, i can't see how your specialist won't be impressed!!!!!!!! do you mind me asking what you think (or he thinks) the problem is with weight if it isn't food portions, is it just poor choices, mine was food portions and obsession with food. I am only banded 3 weeks but am happy so far! So forget the doctor, he's not a surgeon and let us know what happens. Good luck!!!! Amourette XX

April 2006 Bandsters/what am I gonna do when I lose first 20kgs/44pounds
amourette replied to Eficka's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I can't even imagine that..........but I guess I am nearly half-way there, although my weight loss has been only 2 pounds this week:cry , that makes me sad as I am being very good, can't weight to be allowed to exercise. So what shall I do for my 20kg loss, I wanna have a goal with a pressie for me like you guys now!!! I shall.............treat myself to a massage and facial..........mmmmm that will be nice. I hope to be at 90 kgs in 2 months time...... My other goal in the next two months is to learn to love the gym again!!!!:clap2: Good thread Efficka!!!!! XXAmourette! -
Hi All, Efficka and I have started 2 new threads........mine is a practice to see if this will go well or not. Use the search engine for April Bandits. they are both listed there Bye All!!!!!!

Hi there, congratulations on your banding..........I am on week 3 of the liquids and I have been making home-made soup........they are really easy, and I am not the best cook so even I can do them.........yesterday was bacon and pumpkin soup, and today is curried cauliflower.........last week I made chicken soup with a whole chicken simmered in stock and vegies last week, then pulled the chicken out, pulled the meat off and blended it back with the stock after I had skimmed the fat off the stock. I also made the effort to drag out my juice blender.............hasn't been used in ages hehehe, my faves are carrot, apple and pineapple........and celery, carrot and apple. Hope this helps a bit Amourette:clap2: :clap2:

Efficka darling, you only had surgery 10 days ago, 7 1/2 lbs is great, times that by 3 and you could be losing a lot for the month at that rate. Get out your patience pill, hehehhee!!! I don't think I have lost that much................especially in this last week, oh well, Love from Amourette

Oh and I like Ellen too..........that has just started down here!!

Hi all, I am down in New Zealand and it looks like our programming follows yours a lot, tonite Lost was on, now Invasion is on and Bones is on a competing channel..........we are a few weeks behind you with American Idol, I always look on the internet to see who has gone hehehe!!!! My faves are- Scrubs Two and a Half Men Six Feet Under Little Britain (english) Footballer's Wives (english, 10 times raunchier than DH, hehehe) America's Next Top Model Supernanny This is all I can think of at the moment, good thread though!
