So is there a danger that LBT is breaking down families or just teaching us how to multi-task and cook meals that give our noodles and hamburgers more Fiber (crunchiness)? We've just got to think "outside the box". LOL

I have to say that I used a yahoo bandsters board for quite some time before I discovered this one. While I did get some good information on that board, I was often discouraged by the fact that they got WAY off topic and sometimes were almost critical of posts.

wow you took the words out of my mouth!

There is quite a few "know it alls" who really talk down to people on yahoo bandsters. Sometimes I just wanna say you know..

this thing sucks go to LBT! but i hear what they do to those who are like that =)

All of you who are addict to this site. I have a simple way for you to get over your addiction. Do like me. Take one hour a day off from here then your now addicted anymore. TA DA... Geez so simple

I use that hour I'm off fixing a few simple meals and lining up my Water supply for while I'm here. The when that hour is up(just before the shakes start), I can sit down knowing I won't have to get up again. For those of you wondering. Yes its Super absorbant Depends. Coasto has good price on them. Send the wife for them since it would take more then an hour to get there and back. can't be driving when the shakes start. Safety issue you know

Thanks for the Site Alex..Helps keep me awake at work all nite.

So, Greg, if I get those Depends, I can go on longer bike rides w/o having to stop at the local convenience store for a "pit stop"?

Sure Marie, You can bypass the temptations of those little stores and enjoy your ride too. Just don't try a New Yor to California with just one???

You'll leave a trail.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
