Your recommendations for best mushies
amberakamom replied to Appmax54321's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
How exactly do you make the ricotta with spaghetti sauce? Just mix it together and put cheese on top? -
I want to lose some boobies! A few years ago I lost 65 pounds and my bra size didn't change at all. =(

Really...Seriously...Come On!
amberakamom replied to zeniada's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Can you up it to 1/2 cup? That's what I normally get in, and it's been working fine. -
Lady question :)
amberakamom replied to ~*~Rachel~*~'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My last one ended a day or two before surgery. I'm due around the18ish. I am like clock work, so it will be interesting to see if it's still on track. -
Just the first of I hope not too many weird questions...
amberakamom replied to GoMamaGo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Probably gas pains. I get them a lot. =( -
Zoloft was my only. One getting stuck. I cut them in half now and its fine. They sure are nasty when crushed!

PLEASE GIVE ME IDEAS FOR MUSHIES!!!
amberakamom replied to bunnyluv37's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Canned tuna and saltines are allowed on my mushie diet. -
I did it a few years ago for 3 months and lost 35 pounds, but 80% of the food is disgusting, and I'm not picky. If u google low glycemic index, u can do the diet yourself with your own foods.

Newly Banded and HUNGRY
amberakamom replied to HungryMel's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I havnt been hungry since surgery but I try to get in 1400 calories a day. Its hard to get to most days, I have good restriction. -
Newly Banded and HUNGRY
amberakamom replied to HungryMel's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That looks like about 800 calories. Sounds ok to me. -
Really...Seriously...Come On!
amberakamom replied to zeniada's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't think it sounds all that high. If you are obese, then you probably have a really high bmr. -
My dream situation-no fills required to lose weight. Anyone who's done this?
amberakamom replied to RobinLB's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Darn! It's great just the way it is now! lol -
women how many calories are you taking in a day ?
amberakamom replied to amyloveslou's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My goal is 1400 a day. I'm still on mushies so I'm only getting about 800 a day. Eating that few calories isn't good for me, so hopefully I can start getting more in soon! -
Symptom not going away 11 days post op
amberakamom replied to ravendays's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I didn't have anything like that. I do have numb areas though. -
First day post-op any hints?
amberakamom replied to JerseyMom29's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Use the strong drugs. I only needed them for 3 days. You'll feel better before you know it. Sip sip sip. -
My dream situation-no fills required to lose weight. Anyone who's done this?
amberakamom replied to RobinLB's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When does the swelling from surgery go down? I'm 2 weeks out. If my restriction level stayed the way it is now, I don't think I would need a fill. -
Everyone says only eat if you are hungry, but...
amberakamom replied to amberakamom's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I'm only 2 weeks out, but I have good restriction and I am never physically hungry. When does the swelling from surgery go away? I'm guessing I will be hungry once that happens? -
Why do some people not need a fill?
amberakamom replied to cheechtrish's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I don't know how or why it happens. I am 2 weeks out and I definitely have restriction. My band is totally empty. Could be swollen still???? -
How Can People Who Share the Same Struggle Be So Judgmental?
amberakamom replied to BASIMAH's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
There are absolutely a few bad apples in the bunch right now. I have thick skin, so they normally don't bother me. I feel they are the ones with the biggest issues, they just aren't letting on. Know whaty I mean. I think they are "leveling" which means trying to knock others down to their level of unhappiness. I try my best to treat everyone the way I want to be treated. Which also happens to be the biggest lesson I am always trying to teach my children. Maybe the "bad apples" were never taught that? On a public message board, its probably best to take everything with a grain of salt. For all we know we could be talking to a 70 pound 11 year old boy. Hehehe -
Can you see/feel your port?
amberakamom replied to ardelia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
P.s. I have a realize band, with a low profile port. -
Can you see/feel your port?
amberakamom replied to ardelia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am only 2 weeks out and can see and feel my port. My port is high, right under my bra line in the center, so there isn't a lot of fat over it. -
Fantastic!!!
-
Third Fill and no restriction!!
amberakamom replied to targethungry's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That sucks! =( I hope you get restriction soon. -
OMG! I Gained Weight!!!
amberakamom replied to BASIMAH's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wasn't being a smart ass at all, that's not my forte. I was being bummed out with you. :wub: -
