Thanks, Georgia. I remember someone mentioning the Walmart chix breast a couple of weeks ago but could not find the thread when I was looking yesterday.

Your welcome. I highly recommend them, very tasty, low carb, calories are not too bad either.

Thanks for the link. Where in Walmart do they keep this chicken? In the frozen section? It looks delicious! Thanks again.

At our Walmart, it's not in the closed freezer section, it's in the open freezer section with the frozen chicken breasts and strips, etc. I'm sure other Walmarts may be different, just look over all the freezer sections. Good luck finding it!

Thanks! I have to go there anyway later. I am all out of food.

Do you eat the Atkins Protein bars? I love them. I love the nougat ones and the ones that say Morning on them that are Peanut Butter crisp. If I get hungry in the evenings, half of one of those is a great snack. They better not ever get rid of those. I would be lost without them.

How many grams of Protein in the Atkins Bars, Denise? B/4 I decided to do more protein, I was eating Nature Valley oat bars. Just about crapped when I looked up carbs yesterday and they contain 29g/serving. DAH! Don't want to eat those anymore!

Sounds good! Do you find that it calms your sweet tooth? That is a big problem for me, I've always had a big sweet tooth. I've been eating SF popsicles at night, but it just isn't the same. At night is when I start craving sweets, how many carbs are in the bars?

they are too high in carbs for me (i dont do 'net' carbs - i do total.)

Ok LJM, when you say "net" carbs....what's the diff?

I don't have any right now to look on the box. It uses net carbs though. I believe that they have like 7 grams of Fiber. Fiber is a big problem when we're doing low carb. I am thinking that they have 2 grams of net carbs.

I also count calories, and they are about 150 calories.

Apples, the difference with net carbs is they subtract the amount of fiber from the total carbs to come up with net carbs. I think there must be something to it, or the Atkins products wouldn't be promoting net carbs.

Hey Guys =)

I'm jumping back on the LC BandWagon.

Oh, just as an FYI, theres this really awesome site with a support forum and a HUGE recipe section Atkins Diet & Low Carbohydrate Support.

There arent many bandsters there, but there are a few.

So lets break it down for today

Breakfast - Crab meat, baby. This stuff is expensive, but at 145 Cals 0 carbs and 30 grms Protein, you CANNOT beat it.

Lunch- Green chili stew, no potatos, just beef and chili. Delicious. About 3/4 of a cup.

dinner - TBA, probably wings.

I normally dont snack inbetween meals, but should I have a snack, I will post.

-A

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
