I havent started yet, but my husband runs so he is going to help out. I have the Couch to 5K saved, just waiting on the right time to start. My butt's a jiggla too!! The run isnt until September, so I have time. Even if I run some and walk some, finishing it will be enough for me :cool: That is awesome about the treadmill for you! Elliptical is HARD lol, I can do like 15-20 min before i feel like I might die LOL :regular_smile:

So - where are all the Smashing Pumpkins from??
renee10704 replied to myturn0421's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I am eating mushy food, like Soups but if I chew chicken long enough I can get it down. I made the mistake of trying some crackers with it. BACK UP!!! I used to drink when I ate, now thats over and I felt so clogged!! How is everyone doing? -

What is this???
renee10704 replied to San Diego Mom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That's how I felt when I had too much sweet potatoes! My nutritionist told me to keep Papaya Enzymes on hand, they will add with your digestion. They are chewable, and taste GREAT! Hope you are feeling better. What else are you eating? I was banded 10/23/08 and under the impression I had to be on this clear diet for a WEEK and then liquid another week. I couldnt take it anymore. I been going with how I feel. Slowly with Soups, then cottage cheese (which I HATE) and now I Had an egg today. Good luck -

Post Op Diet Grocery List?
renee10704 replied to gracie78's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks Jmegirl I think they all have different diets but I have to be honest, I am just finding out what is working for me. So far so good, not throwing up... Hope everyone is feeling well!! -
thank goodness. i thought i was the only one with the breath problem. i usually complain to my husband about him, but he said something to me for the first time after I brushed my teeth!! I am mortified and am constantly eating gum (i know I am not supposed to but it not like I am giong to swallow it!) So, our breath smells because we arent eating carbs? I was banded on 10-23 and I just started soups and potatoes. what is everyone else eating?

renee10704 replied to San Diego Mom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
We can EAT? I am sooo having the same stomach growling issues, but drink something and feel bloated. I dont have the gas issues as much, but still feel blah... This is so great to be able to talk to others going through the same as I am! Good luck to everyone!!! -

renee10704 replied to PosyFossil's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
HI Lesly... I am in the same boat, 33 and just banded this week. Hope we can share success stories and questions. You did better than I, I didnt do too much research, just made up my mind what I wanted to do and did it. How are you feeling?
