The overall purpose is to be motivated and made accountable to help you move forward with your weight loss journey in partnership with the lap band, including taste testing of a new food product.

You will feel empowered to look at your situation from a different perspective and also be introduced to tools that could change everything - when you apply them.

Linda's presentations are lighthearted and informative and will give you lots to think about in relation to your unique challenges.

You will learn what is contributing to your thoughts and behaviours that you might not even know about!

Hey Helen my name is Amira and I'm going to start attending your monthly groups. But I was wondering if with having a band the last 2years weather I can use a flext belt. It's a electronic stimulating belt to help tone my core muscles. I know this is the lazy way. But is it a danger to use it with the band. Amira

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
