What do you eat for breakfast everyday?
carlagovier replied to spoiltmom's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Oatmeal doesn't stick with me either. I use eggbeaters and make a mini meal. I put in hashbrowns and canadian bacon or lean ham, and veggies, and cheese. I bake it in a 8x8 pan and cut it into squares. Sometimes I use sour cream and salsa on it. -
Meal guidance sought from those non-newbies
carlagovier replied to MollyRN's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ok, I can't give you portion sizes, but I can give you a list of high protien foods. Beans (not green) refried black pinto etc Fish chicken Turkey Canned Tuna cheese You can aloso make one dish meals that contain bean, meat and cheese, this will give you a huge amount of protien with few calories and fat:rolleyes: -
Not a miracle surgery...
carlagovier replied to LapBeezy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I understand, I have been baned 13 months and have not found my sweet spot yet. Hang in there, as it was stated before, this is a process, and not the same process for everyone. I still think the band was the best thing for me. -
Any June 2009 bandsters out there?????
carlagovier replied to esv2000's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi, I got my band in June of 2009. I have just started to feel restriction and I have lost a total of 40 + lbs. -
Hi carlaovier,
I too am new to this site, I also am in the midst of finding out info. Yes I agree that it is scary! Did you ever have the surgery? If so how is your journey? I am ambivilant myself, however this is a tool and many people have succeded with it. I just can not get past the fact if many people can lose up to 100lbs or more on weight watchers than why can't I. I would love to hear from you if you are still out there! Thanks!

Feels like there is a rock in my chest
carlagovier posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have this feeling like there is a rock or lump in my chest, not all of the time, sometimes it feels like it is trying to come up my throat. I have tried to track "when" it happens, but there does not seem to be any "reason". Like right now, I have not eaten yet, but the feeling is there. After I eat, it might go away. Can anyone tell me anything?????:smile: -
OMG!!!!!! Those were the words I was looking for, in my panic I had forgotten everything I learned and why I had choosen the Lap Band. THANKS YOU SO MUCH!!!!!:sad::wink::cursing::thumbup::frown:
-
My thanks to all for your support, but no one has told why they picked lap band instead of bypass,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,:cursing:
-
Evie, why did you pick the lap band and not the bypass?:cursing:
-
My surgery is scheduled for June 16th and I am having second thoughts. I thought I was sure that I wanted the Lap Band and not the bypass but now I am not sure. Any words of wisdom?

Insurance approval (def of "medically supervised diets"???)
carlagovier replied to juliansmom2003's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Call you 800 number on your insurance card, I don't think you need to meet that requirement nay more.
