I was just wondering if anyone does weight watchers with the band... I'm thinking about it!

Not currently but I also have thought about it because my mother in law is on it. The meeting times just don't fit into my schedule.

I'm basically doing it here from home. I'm just following the myfitnesspal guild lines that I worked out with my nutritionist.

No matter what eating plan you follow, you must write it down or log it. Seeing it all laid out (like a bank account) will help you see what you need and what you have to work with.

I do weight watchers and it is helping. I am a slow loser. So WW keeps me honest :)

No i'm not doing weight watchers, but I totally agree with you helping you band help you. I got banded on august 21 2012 so i'm fairly new at this but right now i'm on this super healthy 30 days challenge, plus one hour exercise 5 times a week, and a gallon of Water a day and I lost 9lbs in 5 days no lie =) before that I had done 3 days of ketosis ( 6lbs in 4 days)because I thought I was off track because with my dieticians diet I had only lost 7lbs in 3 weeks ( which people told me that was about what lap-band patients lose each week 1-2lbs a week). I started at 445lbs. My pro-op diet started august 8, surgery was august 21, and i'm now 395lbs =). I had done thi schallenge before and it's really healthy but it was really hard for me to follow, with my band now it is really ok. Basically use you your tool ( band) to your advantage
;-)
GOOD LUCK!

I also use myfitnesspal and boy does it help me. I feel like I am more accoutable with using that app. I log everything I eat and I log my excercise and I can see if at the end of the day I am at a positive or negative and I can also look at reports of my progress for the month. I never could get into weight watchers, but for some reason myfitnesspal clicked for me and works.

I think the bottom like is find what works for you to keep you accontable and do it, no matter if it's weight watchers or myfitnesspal or something else. As long as you are holding yourself accountable for what you are taking in it is a good thing.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
