Hello all....


 My father is having Lap band surgery wednesday, If you all could take a second to say a prayer for him I would appreciate it...as always thanks Ladies...and gentlemen

YAY, someone responded! I am so excited. As long as you are not more than 3 years post op! I actually won't be doing the interviews until next semester so by then you will see plenty of changes in your life! I am just trying to prepare early b/c this project is VERY important to me educationally and personally!!!

Happy Monday morning, Sandi!

I'm back to tracking what I'm eating.  It's really easy to eat more calories than I should when I don't write it down.  I like to nibble on nuts and they have a lot of calories.  I brought in my little Tupperware container that holds 1/4 cup to help me control my portion.

Since my surgery (which was just 3 months ago), I haven't eaten any chips or candy other than the occasional sugar-free Werthers or LIfe Saver.

Hope you have a terrific week!

Hi guys! my name is Tiffany Woods and I had surgery December 2008! My results have been excellent. Gastric Bypass surgery was an GREAT investment in myself! I am sure the vast majority of you would agree! In addition, to being a bariatric patient I am a Student at the University of Kentucky getting my masters degree in Social Work. a requirement of this program is that I complete a research project. I have chosen to do my research project on "One's Perceived Quality of Life After Gastric Bypass Surgery". I am hoping to have atleast 10 participants for an in-depth interview about their experiences since having gastric bypass. I chose this project as not only is therapeutic for myself, but those who participate and anyone *****ads my study that has experienced weight loss surgery. If any of you are interested in participating please email me, [email protected] or [email protected] . Your name and all information gathered will be held confidential. I will provide you with a more formal notice after getting your contact information. Thanks again!


Sincerely,

Tiffany L. Woods

I have some.  It's okay.  Fruit flavored is what I got.  I wouldn't run out and buy them.  They only have 5 grams of protein in 8 ounces of water.  I feel like if I'm drinking any type of my protein, I like for it to be worth while.  I don't think 5 is worth while.  I'll finish up what I have, but won't run out and order some more!
