I should clean out my closet thanks!! we went to the drive in last night

And I already exercised today!! To hot right now to take the dogs for a walk. I guess I need new ideas to take place of my eating!!

BTW I can only watch so much spongebob in one day.......LOL

Well, I just finished watching my 12 yo run on the treadmill for an hour (if I only had that energy) and I already finished my cleaning and laundry. I would like to go in the pool but my husband is cleaning it and my hot tub is leaking. So normally I would eat but I'm not so I guess I will go buy some lottery tickets!!

7/29

Is that chunky, I bought the cans and have been straining them

Ok see i knew I was confused. I sent my husband to walmart, its makes him feel important! LOL So here is the other question, since my emotions are not playing nice I want to take some meds, what is the best way to take a capsule?? Open it and put it in my yogurt??

Yes today is a new day I ranted and cryed and everything I needed to do to get over my shame. Here is a question since I am on full liquids should I be doing 1200 calories a day? If so how in the world do I do it? Its 3pm and I have had 370 calories and 18g protein, to do this I feel like I constantly have to have something in my mouth. How many shakes in a day can I have? I had a slimfast shake at 9:30am and then a drinkable yogurt about a 1/2 hour ago and I am starting to get hungry, is another shake ok or should I do soup? I am sooooooo confused!!

Great tips and my dogs have been eating great since I got this. I will not put leftovers in the frig because I was the only one that used to eat them, I just give them right to the dogs now and they think its wonderful!

I have never watched lost and a lot of people say its good. We do watch a lot of TLC and stuff, my brother is always watching it

A few days is all you need if you keep moving you feel a lot better. After the couple days it just feels like you exercised you stomach muscles to much. I'm a nurse in the ER and went back to work 4 days later with no problems!!

Thats a good idea with the ice shaver, I do like that kind of stuff and been living on it during my post op but for the future when I REALLY have to count calories that would be sweet!

Thanks! How do you know if it slips just for knowledge purposes I personally don't want to find out and WON"T

I think mine will be soup and salad at the Olive Garden. I much as I have screwed up I'm still scared

Confessing and writing what I have done makes me face it and get back on track. Yes I screwed up today (yesterday now) but I need to move past it and remind myself that I have already lost 11lbs. I owe this to myself the 80lbs I gained in the last 5 years need to disappear so the next 5 years will be alot better. The past is the past and today is a new day, life is to short to be unhappy

Since the Sopranos are over I don't really watch mych of anything except Spongebob. What is your must watch show?? I also liek 3 and half men, criminal minds but never remember to watch them because its not ongoing like the sopranos.

If you are going to OCC, it was great to get out and walk the day after my surgery! tiajuana is a beautiful city to see so try to make some time to see it!!

As much as you are working out you have to remember that muscle weighs more than fat!!

WoW! A little rough aren't we? Maybe you need to see your family Dr for some blood work to make sure ecerythings ok

I guess everyone can have a bad day and the support here is wonderful. I did start some of the thicker liquids earlier than I should only when I was really hungry and clear wasn't helping. I did call to make sure it was ok and it was because I had constant diarrhea since the day after I was banded and anytime I put any liquid in my mouth, health wise I had to I was really making myself sick. Getting the band really puts you on an emotional roller coaster and can make you really feel alone!

Thank you, I also ordered Dr. O book, I do need something for my husband to read!!

Everyone said I shouldn't do the milkshake thing?? You know when I got married I thought my husband and I were in this together. It seems like everytime I get pissy he leaves and then ignores me, he can't just let me rant and rave and deal with it. So tonight I sleep on the couch because me and the boys went to the drive-in and he went to his friends because watching the Eagles game is more important than spending time with us. I'll admit life has not been easy around here lately (my 16 yo brother moved in with us) but leaving me to deal with everything by myself to me is selfish. The worst part is I was doing very well today I starting keeping track of calories and protein to get back on track and even ordered those cookbooks. I made 2 homemade cakes without tasting them and even took one to his work. I didn't even get a thank you, sorry I'm venting my best friend is working night shift so I have no one to talk to.

WOW!

The pain went away but my stress is at an all time high

As I am writing this I am sitting in my living room crying, I don't think ia can do this. I am 10 days post op and can't take it anymore. We went to applebees for dinner I got spaghetti ( I know I am not supposed to eat) I had about 3 noodles and a shrimp. i feel like sh*t I have pain in my chest 9under the left side of my rib cage) and feel like I want to throw up. I guess i feel this way because I get no support here all my husband does is b*tch he never has anythign nice to say. Honestly I cna't stand the sound of his voice right now but then I am pissy becasue he spends no time with us. I really don't know what to do, I know I will ruin my band and have been trying to behave but something keeps telling me that I will fail at this too so why not just give up. BTW how do you know if your band slips?
