Recommended Posts

mamakinks: Hi,[07:46 AM] mamakinks: This is my first visit to this site, I was banded in March 07, since my surgery I have many emotional set backs. My mom is in hospice care after a stroke in April, I lost my job and lost my 4 legged best friend suddenly. I am still trying to loose, but I am definitely at a stand still. I Jazzercise and think I am eating right, but I do not know exactly what diet to follow at this point. I am also experiencing a weird feeling when I eat, I can feel the air and the food meeting and until 1 moves it is quite painful. I am schedule for another fill ( I am not even 1/2 full yet) in a couple of weeks and am getting quite anxious about it because I am afraid I will not be able to eat anything. has anyone else experienced this? I need to get motivated again, I started at 228 and am now at 184 and holding.<img src="http://www.LapBandTalk.com/images/smilies/confused.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Confused" smilieid="11" class="inlineimg" /></p>

HI Mamakinks,

How are you doing? I was banding in March 07 and I haven't had any success at all. I'm very frustrated. I had two fills and then I had some taken out because I couldn't keep anything down. I have found that I'm an emotional eater and I just plain like to eat. There are some foods I can't eat at all but I have found that I can eat around the band and that's not good!!!

I don't know what to do at this point. I don't really love my doctor that did the surgery and they won't let me switch. I don't want to go back to them at all. I'm really stuck.

      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.

      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.
