How long does the Induction Phase last.

And I looked for them Cicken breast(also) but couldnt find them.

Are they in a bag or box? Only thing I found was 4 in a bag flaovred

Tomato and Basil I do believe.

They are in a box, 2 chicken breast per box. I think there are 4 different flavors: spinach and artichoke, bacon and cheese, mushroom and cheese, and a jalapeno one.

Here's what they look like:

OH DEAR!! those chicken breasts are amazing!!

i had a little over 1/2 of the pepperjack one and had a bite of DH's mushroom and they were fabulous!! :D

They are really good. I'm really craving them but I'm supposed to be on liquids through tomorrow. How long do you guys have to be on liquids after a fill?

i cant eat 4 hours before then liquids the rest of the day then mushies for 1-2 days (usually stovetop stuffing :D) then gradually get more solids in...

I'm supposed to do 2 days of liquids followed by 2 days of mushies but I usually don't make it. :D

I'm planning to start Atkins with you guys this weekend....after Valentines Day....I got some of those stuffed chicken breasts at Wal Mart you've all been raving about. I can't wait to try them.

I think there is something to the Atkins. DH has been on it since last Mon & when we went for fills yesterday he'd dropped 9lbs since then. GOSH, men have it so much easier :cursing:. I'm doing a "South Beachy" version and it's working decently, yet I've grown a taste for dairy that I've never had: milk/yogurt/cheese..sorta craving those lately...Anyway just popped in,

hope all is well!~

lulu,

the cravings may actually be band related.. ???

ever since I've been banded, I've been craving spicy stuff. I've always liked spicy, but more so now.

glad you popped in.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
