What does "sounds white" mean?....I thought "white" was a color. By "white" do you mean that she uses correct grammer? Can I infer that "blacks it up" means that she uses incorrect grammar? Once again, I thought "black" was a color.

Tomecia--CONGRATZ!!! Welcome to bandland....if you continue to have gas pains--get some GasX strips--take 2 or three of them at one time (they dissolve on your tongue) Also--GET UP and walk around your house--and if it's not too cold--walk around the block--the gas will go away. Be blessed

I purchased my Supreme Protein from the Vitamin Shoppe. I am going to purchase a case. My plan is to change my eating habit drasticly so that I can lose 16lbs by Jan. 1...yes, I know it's quite an ambitious goal...but I want my weight to start with a 1... Here's what's in my mind...hopefully I can stick to it..... Breakfast: Activia Yogart and 1/2 a supreme bar Lunch: 1/2 supreme bar Dinner: Talapia and salad Water: 64oz or more Exercise: At least 45 minutes 3-4 times a week. What do you think? Will it knock off 16lbs ???????

JA9VA---contrats to U!!!! :clap2::clap2:Happy "Bandiversary!!!!" :whoo::whoo: I looking forward to seeing your progress!! I should be posting in about 10 days!!! It doesn't matter how slow it's coming off.....IT'S OFF AND NEVER WILL RETURN!!!!! YEA! YEA! YEA!

Congrats.....i Am 17lbs Away From Wonderland...i Am Working Hard To Be At 199lbs By Jan 1.....

Stef, You are absolutely right!!!! The Supreme Protein Bars are DEE-LISH-US!!! They are sooo tasty....Here are my questions: They are huge...Do you eat an entire bar at one time? Do you use it as a meal replacement or a snack? I bought the carb-conscious 360 calories 16g fat 300mg fat protein 30g I have been able to eat about 3/4 and I feeling a little full....THANKS FOR THE GREAT TIP!!!!

STEPH...WE'RE WAITING....WHAT'S THE NAME OF THE BAR????????????????????????????????????????

I'm not sure that I would get another fill just yet. Wait about 2 weeks. During the wait time, log everything that you put into your mouth...everything....any exercise...and take that with you to the doctor. Then you two can discuss the amount that you're eating and he may have a solution....don't know what it is...but...it's just what I think... I was right with you--remember??? we were both too tight...I got a slight unfill....While I can eat, it's not nearly as much as I would LOVE to...

Dr. Richard Benevides--972-331-8100. HE IS THE GREATEST!!!!!

I purchased as size 18W pants from The Avenue (I had a coupon)...and I WAS EXCITED!!!! I have vowed to wear my "big clothes" until January 1. That will be the day that I purchase new clothes...I asked my friends and family to give me gift cards to anywhere I can purchsae clothes.... When it gets warmer in the spring, I think I'll have a $5.00 sale...pants, tops etc all $5.00....I think it's a good marketing strategy....

Heather...it's been sooo long since we've heard from youl. Good to hear from you!! Keep up posted on your journey CONGRATZ!!!! tick...tick...tick..tick....THE TICKER MOVED!!!!! I've been dancing around the bathroom this morning!!!

Banded at 37....looked into approx 8 to 11 months prior to banding date

faithmd--i'm rooting for you!!!! maybe you'll be ready on your 1 year banderversary!!! I'm nervous about posting.....but we'll see as the 18th approaches.....

O2B: I feel for you....I can eat a little more, because I had a slight unfill. I know this will be HARD...EXTREMELY HARD....I know because it's hard for me!!! Try fixing your plate and take half of it off. Example: If you get a burger--cut it in half and remove it from the plate---and when the half is finished, stop and make a mental assessment to see if you are at least satisified--not stuffed. Say to yourself "I am full"---it's mental--I just try and trick myself and say it's a tool. Also, from reading Suzzie's posts and several others, I have started trying to have 6 small meals rather than the doctor recommended 3 meals a day.....I know it's in direct opposition from the lapband doctor, but it helps me because I LIKE TO EAT!!!!!! Well Junies---it's almost time to post the 6 month pictures...I will be posting on Dec. 18th..Six months to the date...Who else is willing to post???????????

Suzzie Congrats on the AMAZING WEIGHT LOSS...How many calories are you getting in a day? What's a typical daily menu like for you?

I bought "pretty panties" 2 sizes smaller than in the past!!!! Normally I purchase panties from Wal-mart (Hanes--Pack of 5)....
