I like the GNC Chocolate/carmel for my coffee. I also put the vanilla in my SF iced coffees - makes it richer. I also have Unjury strawberry sorbet - mix that with some crystal lite lemonade for a strawberry lemonade. I also like the click espresso - but it has a LOT of caffeine in it - I sometimes get shaky after I drink that.... I also use the unflavored in crystal lite too. I also eat Fage yogurt 0%, put in 1/2 scoop of vanilla protein and the SF jelly of your choice - yum! I mixed just the SF jello in it without the protein and i didn't like it nearly as well.

GNC has a special for the month of July on their proteins - its their Gold Card prices all month (don't have to have a gold card either). I'm going today and stocking up on some more. I go through the choc/carmel quickly. There is another one - a chocolate mint from www.bodybuilding.com (think it is) I like real well, but it had a few more carbs than I cared for.

How are you feeling?

I went over there today and got the BIG BIG tubs - basically it was a better price than their gold card prices at the first of the month. It was basically "buy 1 get one for $10"... I may go back and stock up some more...

Good morning everyone....

Boy, isn't that the truth...where did July go?? I can't believe it is already the last week in July. Seems like the older you get the faster time goes.

QOTD: I'll be going to Chelsea this weekend. No plans other than to hang out and relax. I am lookikng forward to sleeping in tomorrow morning. We may go to the Ann Arbor Farmer's Market.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Hi all -

Been a busy morning already today. Totally forgot to eat breakfast, so I'm doing that now (an hour late).

QOTD -- I'm so glad it's Friday. There's some cool event in Frankenmuth tonight (Destination Carribean) that I might check out. Food, music and stuff. So if I can squeeze in some of the personal stuff that needs to get done while I'm here at work (lunch hour, of course ::: wink :::) - then I can play tonight. Tomorrow is a family reunion up in Au Gres which looks like we'll be rained on. Sunday at 6am I'm meeting my photography group for a photowalk at the Bay City State Park. I have Monday off work, and have a doc apt in the morning then meeting some high school friend for dinner Monday night.

Talked to Shelly yesterday. With her it's feast or famine. She can't even hold down water right now since she got her fill. I told her maybe she needed to call the DR, but she said she'd rather deal with this than the other way. Poor lady.

Oh man! I'm glad she's filled, but if it's over full and she's not able to eat.... it could be causing more damage than it's worth. I'm not a labband expert, but isn't this how erosion happens? When the band is too tight and causes distress to the tissue of the stomach? She definitely needs to put a call in and at least ask if it's something to be concerned about.

She dealt with this same thing before, and said it takes a good three weeks until she can eat again, and she's just going to deal with it. She's a stubborn ol broad! but I love her.

Lap Band on 02/25/09

I don't know how she can do that. When I was to full after the last fill, I went to Hurley on a Sat to have the PA take .25cc out. No way I was going to deal with not being able to get anything bu****er in. Than a little while later I could eat too much. But, I rather eat too much than hurt my band or stomach.

I do admit it was tempting when I was drooping weight for a change. Than my common since took over.

BAND REMOVED 9-4-12-fought insurance to get sleeve and won! Sleeved 1/22/13! Five years out and trying to get that last 15 pounds back off.
