    I think that is great as well. That was what my dr say a typical weight loss of 3 lbs a week was good. I agree that make sure you get your protein first and eat that mainly it increase your metabolism, but veg and fiber to keep your bm ok. I ate to much protein and nothing else the first week I could eat solids and man did I pay for it lol trish
  4. I can understand I went crazy myself I just wanted something that tasted like dinner, and that is hard to fine on liquids. lol Im not loosing at the moment but I had my first ajustment and they had to take out a 1/2 cc cause it was to much but not Im not really feeling any restriction, so not sure what is happening. Im trying to exercise everyday so maybe that is part of it.Im not gaining either so I guress I shouldnt complain. It is interesting how every dr is different and how it affects everyone differently. I do realize that I have to make changes and this is not a quick fix. I still think I would do again though it has given me motavation and desire to make better choices. Did you try any of the recipes fron the lapband. com web site?? Im glad you pm me it is nice to have somene else who has been throught it to talk to and sicuss things thank trish

  5. LOL, I'd give my right arm right now I think to have had only 3 weeks of liquid diet! I've still got 17 days to go. I'm going a bit stir-crazy wanting to chew at this point. In fact, I look forward to my chewable children't vitamins so much each day. I'm doing OK. You?

  6. Hey my doctor was the same way. I did three weeks of soft liquids and then right to solid he just said chew chew chew lol no puree or really mushy food strange

  7. How are you doing today?? I hope things are going good for you. I need to really start exercising and I need to eat more protein.

    Yes that was glad you realized. Im new to all this not sure how to respond to someone directly. I was only on liquids for a day after my fill, but evey doctor is different. Im sure you will do great. So did you decide how much you want to try to loose you have done great so far Trish

    I was told to plan for an average of 3 pound a week, that may be high but if you are following things and exercising I dont think it is to unrealistic. When are you scheduled for a fill?

    I want to join. I was shy 2 pounds of my mother's day challenge. I think I will shoot for 20. I know I have to get out there and exercise that will help me. I had my first fill and things are going good so far. Happy Mother's day to all you mothers as well trish
  11. I wouldnt worry either. U dont have much that is going through you it was well 3 weeks after my surgery before I had a Bm and I was eating soft food. I still only have them about once a week, and Im just one month out of surgery. When are u switching to solid food?
  12. Taco Bell worked for me while I was traveling. They will let you order a burrito without the tortilla. Family restaurants usually have soup and that works.
  13. Im down another 3 Yeah!!!! Going south for my grandma funeral wonder if family will notice the weight lost?
  14. hope all on this thread has been doing better. are we getting more sleep then before? I have one more week of soft liquids so looking forward to just having to chew some food.
  15. I'm down 2 yeah!! was at a standstill. I know for me it has been making sure I get 60-70 g of protein a day. Now just got to get alittle more exercise in as well. So where do I go to set up the tickers????? Thanks Trish
