Thank you for the info. Yes creamed soups are good. I was told to use 1% milk. Today tried the Pro Cell to Instant Breakfast. Not bad. I will try your recommendation of adding it to the soup. Thank you sooooo much. Had the Lap Band. Daughter had it the same day also.

I have tried to get 30 mins in, but we have had an ice storm (Im in Kansas) the day after I was released from the hospital and now we are in a snow storm. I live on the second floor of an apartment and Im scared to try to go down the stairs with them being so slippery. Instead I have been walking in my apartment...something is better than nothing.

Hey Sharon... you are completely normal... if it doesn't pertain to me, then I have heard other people say it. It is nice to know this is all normal. I am with you on the "fear of failure" type thing. I want this to work and I want to feel great. Things are getting into a more normal routine but the other night I cried because I was so sick and tried of the "menu" at this time. My magic bullet (blender) is ready and waiting too, but I have a lot longer ... probably till the 19th or so. I am trying to be creative with the choices I have though. It is frustrating that a lot of what we can eat is SWEET... GIVE ME A BEEF STEAK or something to sink my teeth in!! I am excited to move on. This is the hardest part of it all (so I have been told), I sure hope so! Are you able to get out and walk? I have been trying to get my 30 mins of exercise in. My head hunger still is there... frustrating, but it is less often. Take care and drop me a line Becky

No...bariatric surgeons are specialists in their own field.

Just had surgery on 12/12/07. (lap band) Don't feel real good. Trying though. Tried the powdered Isopure. Yuk. Now going to try the unflavored Pro Cell. 3 days and not able to get qll liquid down that is recommended. Can anyone tell me about their experience and help me figure out what is happening?
