Hey! I'm jumping on the bandwagon. LC completely works for me. I have been LC'ing it for several days now. Here is what I have eaten today:

Breakfast-strawberry whey Protein shake from smoothie Factory (made with Water, 50g Protein, the Protein powder is 0 carb...but I did add peach slices with no juice...not too bad, huh?)

Lunch-1/4 cup chicken salad from Chic-fil-A

Dinner-Baked white fish (eating on this right now)

If I get hungry later, I will drink coffee with Splenda or Chai Tea.

Pre-band, a couple of years back, I lost 100 lbs doing LC but fell off wagon and gained it ALL back. It should be a piece of cake now that I have the band...:thumbup:

just search Amazon for Atkins caramel and you should find them

hmmm. suggestions...

the chicken from the other low carb thread was really good. you can get it at Walmart super center... cant remember the name of them though... just search for the low carb thread (its pretty big...)

I did a thread search on low carb and there were so many pages of low carb

threads. Do you remember the name of the thread?

I did low carb before surgery and it works great for me. However, since moving to regular foods, I have been on carb overload and I am eating way too many of them! Can I join you guys? I did have oatmeal this morning, but it was whole wheat, so not the worst carb in the world to eat. I just feel better when I'm not full of carbs.

Here's the link: http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f9/starting-atkins-induction-diet-anyone-want-join-me-50036/?highlight=starting+atkins+induction

I'll show the chicken that's soooo good, here's a picture of what they look like, you can buy them at Walmart. They have 2 other flavors, a bacon & cheese one and a jalapeno & cheese one (beware, that one is a little hot!!)

      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.
