Thanks to both of you!

I too have that problem - what i try to do is eat healthy 80-90% of the time and eat junkier stuff once a week. it does hurt if you don\t chew the food enough. i have that added burden of having braces and can't even having anything too hard but still managed to carve off 25 pounds this last year. it isn\t so easy but unlke before - i've lost weight and havent put it back on.

I have lost 25 pounds since April 28 2010. This isn't a large loss but i am still quite happy.

Hello everybody, I am new to this site but have been reading a good deal of the posts over the last few days. I was banded on April 28th 2010, I am day 4 post surgery. I have been following my fluid diet and will continue to follow the guidelines set out by the clinic I went to. Does anybody know how long bloating will last? I'm up a few pounds from my start weight. Also, when I can expect to see some weight loss if following guidelines well? Thanks so much.

Hi, sorry for the delayed reply. Miami was fantastic. I'm not doing well with the band. I will be going for another fill in about 2 weeks. My hair is falling out and I am going for a blood test that my doctor requested. take care.

It's my pleasure. I hope all is well with you though it sounds like it's not too good at the moment. Take care dear. I'm always here to talk but often don't have any great answers. -

I wish I could say something to make you feel better. It may be a bit of a rough road but probably a good idea to talk to another doctor. Take care dear, Lena -
This is the basis for eggplant lasagna. use the eggplant after this prepation and then layer it like you would a lasagna.

it was recommended to me as well but i mushed everything to smitherenes instead. From what I remember with my daughter baby food is very saltless - you may need a bit of salt to bump up the flavour.

Liquid diet! How much weight to loose??

:thumbup:Tori, it sounds like you're losing quite a bit. Everybody is different. :frown: Hang in there! -
Don't overdue it if you don't have to - 30 minutes walking a day is awesome. I've been keeping pretty active but it always seems to be around the house. Miami will be fun - we've been there before (my sister and I) and both love South Beach. My next fill is in about 2 and half weeks and til then dieting dieting dieting. I feel sometimes that I could eat a horse or chew off my arm but it sounds like from all the posts that better times will come for us newbies. Take care, lap band surgery I think it is quite a bit less invasive than the b/r.

That's fantastic. Lara is my daughter's name. It is a Russian name coming from the full name of Larissa.

:biggrin:looks like there are several good smashers available around the house

Caloric Intake, daily
mousek replied to caldwell33's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm averaging about the same as you. Sometimes I drop it a bit if I get mad at the scale but it does get a bit tough when going down to 800 or 700 - I find I have to avoid going to my friends' places or my sister's house because of the temptations and of course they're always nibbling on something. -
Good observation Willowcat:cool:

I needed Tylenol at one point and my friend ( a guy) put them in a paper towel and smashed them with a hammer so I could swallow easily - though they tasted super awful like that. I thought using the hammer was pretty funny and still laugh when i think about it.

:frown::sad: (my favourite icon- i call it drumroll please) Some great successes! Totally inspiring!

Hi Teri, don't know if you got my other message. I had a fill but don't feel any restriction - just dieting. Am going to Miami though tomorrow for a week and am quite excited about that- my clothes are looking better on me than before. Hope you're feeling okay and doing well!
-
I had to lose 65 pounds but before I couldn't keep the weight off. A lot of stress makes me eat. I don't have the proper restriction yet so am dieting until that time.

Sounds a bit like sabotage - experiencing that at the moment from several sources - makes me even more determined to get back to my previously hot self.

Teri, I had lipo on hips many years ago and the pain and the heat lasted for about 5 weeks with me and it hurt if I bumped into anything. Hope you're doing alright. -
Hello, my sister and I are going to Miami this Saturday for a week's holiday and wondering if anybody knows of reasonably priced Cuban food around South Beach area where we are staying. Also any recommendation for good restaurants in South Beach. Thanks.

another cop-out. Just put the person or people down - don't you feel better now?
