  1. I really need to get back on track with making better choices when it comes to eating with my Lap-Band!

  2. FYI - our next door neighbor has set up a small produce stand at the end of his driveway. They have homegrown okra, green peppers, and cucumbers.

  3. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should...

  4. Reminder: SELAH, a great homeschool field trip group that is near and dear to my ♥, is having a "Mom's Only Meet and Greet" get-together at the Manley Baptist Church Student Building on tonight, June 17th from 7-9pm. Please bring a finger food to share.

    Starting over

    Hi Bob, It's good that you are aware of the need to get back on track. I have fallen off the wagon myself at times. In my opinion, it would be best to start with something like The Five Day Pouch Test. Basically you go back to liquids then progress to pureed food, etc. I have done that a couple of times and it seems to get my mind back on track. There is something you can buy on that site but I have found enough info on there to do it without buying anything. I hope that helps! Becky <><

    How many...Fills, CC's, Pounds?

    Hi Amy!!! I have had 2 fills so far (at the end of August and the end of September). I have 3.6cc in my band. I was scheduled to go in for another fill at the beginning of November but I called and cancelled the appointment. My doctor had told me that I'd know I was at the right restriction when I was satisfied by eating small meals and stayed satisfied for several hours. I feel like I am in the "sweet spot" now. I have met that criteria but I really don't have any foods that get "stuck" or I PB with. I do restrict breads. I have found a low card tortilla that I like though. I mostly restrict my breads because of my insulin resistance not necessarily because of my band. I have been off my Glucophage since I got banded and I want to keep it that way. I have lost about 51 pounds so far. Best wishes! Becky <><
