Today my Magic Bullet Blender croaked! :thumbdown:

I should have known the end was near when yesterday it wouldnt unscrew from the cup.

Its been such a part of my band-journey! I'm so bummed!

Well Valentines Day is around the corner... Nothing says love like ... a new Blender?

Ahh that sucks. Those things are so handy. Although I don't have the actual Magic Bullet because here they are like $70 (for a blender no thanks) so I got walmarts knock off version (miracle blender) for $30-35 instead. So far it's not yet kicked the bucket although it doesn't really seem to have the power to do much besides liquids with a bit of ice or frozen fruit in it. I tried tuna and mayo the other day and I was sure I was going to blow the motor, and get this - the blade actually bent. Is the Magic Bullet better for stuff like that?

So, just what do you use the blender for with the lapband in place? Just curious as mine just sits there.

I love it, its great for chopping and blending in smaller quantities. I got one for Christmas, because I was getting the band, and now I use it for all sorts of things. You can get them on sale around $50.

      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.
