Ok everyone, Lapband takes care of the intake of calories just why does our bodies greedily hold on to every calorie that enters our mouths???? METABOLISM!!!!!! I am on a bit of a rant here but I for one am sick of this sluggish metabolism that is insistant to "Survive" thru this "STARVATION period" it seems to think it is in. I am going to make it my personal goal to find a way to get in enought of the right kind of calories and the right activities to beat this Ol' body at its own game!

First I will learn what the metabolis is, how it works, and how to get it to BURN BURN BURN UP THIS FAT I have successfully stored away in my time of plenty. I also need to learn how does the lapband effect the metabolism. With this knowledge I will see success. You wil too!!!!!!

Also, my husband is home until after the 4th of July which means it will be inpossible to stick to liquids all day until my protien dinner. I will do the best I can to eat healthfully and I will LISTEN to the band when It says WHOA no more food. But NO 5 day pouch test this week. This will be a great chance the stretch my metabolism, focus on protien, and see what "normal lapband living" is like. I know it is not being on a liquid diet 5/7 all year.

I will report back with my findings.
