I might make it :confused: I have to make sure daddy can watch the boys!

My Doc put me on Microgestin to "re-set my system" for a year since I hate hormonal pills. Long story!

Liz - You should look into changing pills. Yasmin has a TON of things found with research lately and soooo many law suits from people being sick. My dr took me off asap and now has me on something else.

Heather - How ya feeling? dinner tonight for me, ribeye...

I did semi bad today but not to overly bad:

Breakfast - Venti skinny Coffee

Lunch - Lettace with 2 skinless chicken breast cooked in olive oil; lime juice/olive oil for dressing

Snack - Grande skinny latte / couple handfuls of pork rinds....whhoooopppsss...

Hi Everyone,

Maria, so great to hear how you're doing!

Sorry to those that are feeling sick or PMS. I can tell you that at some point all that PMS goes away! YAY

Ash, what time is that meeting in Concord on the 9th? I'll be working in San Jose that day but might make it if the time is right.

Tamra, I wonder if that chicken had sugar pumped into it. That would send me into cravings and hunger the next day. I love costco chicken but don't eat it anymore because they rub it with sugar and shoot sugar and spices under the skin.

Now that everyone is talking about Dr. Baggs being cute, I can't wait to see for myself.

food has been pretty good today:

b - 3 hardboiled eggs & 1 60 calorie string cheese

l - 6 oz turkey burger plain and an apple

d - a pork chop and green Beans

I'm really hungry today. I think I ate a little more for a few days and that always sets me up for more hunger till I get used to it.

Hey all.........I agree Dr. Baggs is funny!! I always joke around when I go in for a visit. He makes me laugh!!

I don't know about weight loss surgery though. He is so, so thin. I do know he rides his bike to work sometimes and that he loves heavy metal music!! I guess I will have to look better........

You just never know what he is gonna say and I end up laughing about something everytime I see him. He always teases me because I usually leave without my paperwork from the appointment and he has to chase me down to give it to me. I guess I don't care to much.....but that is the routine I forget and he has to chase me down!!

But yea he is a great doctor. I like that he give aggressive fills although I don't know if I will still get that cause Robin is on my back right now and holding back my fills...............arrrgghh..........sorta irratated about it right now!!

I have barely anyfill and can eat way more than 1 cup. How the heck am I suppose to lose 5-10 pounds in two weeks when I can eat so much.............

I am holding steady at 198-199 and Thanksgiving is next week. I might not get a fill until after Christmas at this rate.

I only have 2.5cc's right now. I was 3.3cc's at surgery. So I am back in bandster hell again.

I told Robin I have no restriction and she said if I eat protien I will have restriction. I can still eat a cup or more and I am getting hungry on the 1/4 cup!!

Frustrated today!!

Hey girls, I have to tell ya - do what Robin says and log all of your food AND YOUR FEELINGS when you eat when you are not hungry - viola! Down 2.2 lbs in 1 week of logging. Combine that with exercise and increased Water intake, YA you can lose weight!! Even with only 16 lbs to go, WOOT!

Hello everyone- Tina yeah Dr Baggs is funny and a excellant doctor. I dont know it just seemed like he did but I'm sure maybe not.

Ashley- My sis in law who works with a private doctor is refering her to get the lap band, she doesnt have to go through all the hoops we did (no goal weight) but she wants to get it done b4 January in San Jose. Anyway I recommended her to attend the support group meetings that anyone can walk into. Do you know of any bariatric support group meeting either through Kaiser or elsewhere in the fremont/Milpitas/santa clara or san jose area?

She does not have Kaiser she goes to Good Samaritan bot sure what insurance she has, but her doctor is willing to help her get his doen as he knows she neds it done very soon.

      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.

      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.
