All we can do is make suggestions to help you. If you don't want to take our advice then don't complain if you aren't losing weight and eating the way you are suppose to.

I'm not mad...... i was just trying to figure out what I was doing wrong this past week and I guess I answered my own question.

I eat alot of veggies.... I don't really eat much of potatoes anymore.... if I do it is very little. Yesterday was just a potato day for me....

I think i'm just going to get the cold cuts and try that with cheese.... i'm burnt out on eggs but I guess I should try that also...maybe do oatmeal for breakfast.....

I stay so busy it's hard for me to get all that together each day and do it everyday.... but, I gotta make time.

I saw this link in a post yesterday that I think does a great job of not only giving advice on what to do after you first get the band, but also gives sample menus during each of the stages after the band.

Maybe it might help you. The info starts on pg 83.

P.S. I'm not banded yet, waiting for my consult next week, but I read these boards for encouragement and advice.

I wish you luck with your weight loss journey!

I'm not mad either! Many of us have told you what works for us and you just seem to have an excuse for not doing any of it.

I want to help people who really want help that's all.

I am only 2 weeks out - but my plan once i am on regular food is to follow a low carb high Protein diet - I lost well on Atkins quite a few years ago so im planning on something similar but not so strict,, south beach type maybe...

that is a really good menu. Anyone have any others?

I noticed on that menu the foods to avoid... nuts is one (which someone told me nuts were good).....

I'm going to start cracking down on my food.

Thanks everyone
