It is hard to break the snacking habit. Can you try forcing yourself to eat something healthier at that time--like yogurt, cottage cheese, or even a few cubes of cheddar cheese? If you can get through that, there won't be any room for the nuts! It might be a good segue...
Good luck to everyone. We're really doing this!
Good luck.
I still haven't decided which procedure to have but will discuss it with him when I see him.
I am both excited and scared at the same time but want this sooooo bad.

and I couldn't take it I was HUNGRY so I incorpated eggs and cheese, the dr. was not happy
but it helped and it was Protien. I just posted yesterday for help with hunger. I heard back
from alot of people which I really appreciated.. But I guess most of all it was nice to know
that I am not the only person Hungry. I am going to try to go to therapy to help with the
"Head Hunger" but I truly feel that I can distingush between real hunger and head hunger
but you never know! my pouch never seems to get filled, I sat down and ate until I was
really full and I ate alot. scared me! I want this to succeed and am scared to gain all
my weight back. Talking always helps and encouragment helps and makes me want to keep
on but right now Im so hungry, and so disapointed that I never got the Im not hungry feeling
like i was told would happen and I too feel like im failing. My dr said that I might be one of
those people that food goes thru fast. (what ever that means) Im so constipated it hurts. and
I take laxatives everyday!! When you get to your next stage of eating it might help you. Im now
on stage 4 so I get veggies and fruit but still no carbs! Im hoping it helps some. good luck
to you!! I hope you ( and I) get some real help soon!
Are the fills needed after lap band surgery included in the insurance or are these out of pocket expenses? I am awaiting approval for either RNY or Lap Band and I have not decided yet which I will go with. I would have to drive 2 hours to a Dr. to have these fills done. Are these every month, or how often?

Thanks for all the great Ideas!
How do you guys feel about the frozen entrees like smart ones and the lean cuisines? I had been really doing an awful job at eating healthily especially for lunch at work, and a friend noticed that I do not eat much veggies. So I went to the grocery store to see what I could eat, I picked up some laughing cow light cheeses and a Smart One (salisbury steak with chopped asparagus). Beleive me I know about the sodium contents, and I only ate like 1/3 of the portion size.
What is your thinking on the "healthy" frozen meals? What do you suggest for lunch at work?
FYI; my main problem for my weight gain is fast food, I am very iterally addicted to it! Pls. No fast food suggestions for now at least.
