they sell those popsicle brand ice pops that are sugar free. sold at BJS or costco cant remember which one. also soups....

dont buy the canned low sodium fat free ones, they taste disgusting. if you can, make your own low fat Soup, its worth it. egg substitute for when your on mushies, Jello no sugar nonfat pudding cups are great, try to stay away from high sodium broths they are bad for you. if you can do low sodium do those.

but the best thing you will love are the sugar free pops

I am upset that that I will not be able to go to the meeting tonight as I do not have a car tonight. I do have to say that the meeting snuck up on me today. Lost track of the day's.

I do hope to make a meeting soon. Please let me know how it went.

great seeing you there yesterday!!

Same here Johnathan......the meetings really seem to help especially when you hear everyones concerns about the band. Gives me confidence in what I am doing.

So a quick update to all who followed.

I am having issues with throwing up, food getting stuck and I think its because I eat too fast. Also I am gaining weight again... I'm back up to 235... what steps should I take? I am starting to get worried!

[Dibley Dawn 84]

is your band too tight? you should possibly go for an unfill. if you are too tight, you could gain weight even though you are not eating what you would consider to be a lot.

you should definitely talk to your doctor, make sure the band hasn't slipped, maybe get an unfil...SLOW down and chew, chew, chew. be present when you eat for a few days without distractions and see if that helps.
