March MASTER THREAD 2: BAND HARD WITH A VENGEANCE



Recommended Posts

I've been trying to decide whether or not I want to get my fill.

So I'm pretty good at the moment. I'm watching my intake, occasionally stretching it a bit, but I don't think I've really gone over 1700 cals at my most extreme. And the weight is coming off.

Now I can eat or drink whatever I want, but I only want to eat or drink a bit before stopping. THis is exactly what I wanted from the band. I can have salad if I want to - uh, I think; I've not tried it yet.

So, shall I get my fill in two weeks?

Hey Fenton,

Well done! Sounds like you're going brilliantly! I think that if you're not feeling the need to eat your whole house, and you're having little bits and then feeling like it's time to stop, then the band is working for you right now, and you probably don't need a fill. But i would advise you to keep the appointment for now -- when i went from feeling restricted post-surgery to feeling hungry again, it was literally ONE DAY between 24-7 satisfied and ravenous. So you never know what will happen between now and the 14th.

Otherwise, sounds like you're doing great! I had stopped losing weight before my fill last week, but now i'm going again since the fill (another kilo this week). Phew!

I've also joined weight watchers, just because i like the support and the vibes of the meetings. Not sure why, it's just always been very helpful for me. Even better, now that I have a tool to help me along, the weight loss will be much smoother than it has been in the past!

Hooray for the band!

Annie.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
