Today is week 5, and I am feeling great. I have lost 22 pounds, but I have also come off my blood pressure medicine already.

What are most of you eating at this point?

Wow! Fabulous! I had surgery July 13, I love eggs, grits, lunchmeat with string cheese, greek yogurt, i gag down cottage cheese because of high protein......

Good luck in your journey!

I will not eat cottage cheese. I cannot stand the way it feels in my mouth. I know it has a ton of protein but YUK... I can eat just about anything I want too. If I chew it well. It must take me 30 to 40 minutes to eat. So my food get cold. I do not drink with meals. I have a hard time with and do not eat white or soft bread or bagels of any kind. I love eggs now and love greek yogurt as well. I was banded 11 weeks ago and have had 2 fills. I must say I am kinda tight. I am not sure if I am at what some call a sweet spot yet. Best wishes. imaluckydog Kathy

Thanks! Can you believe I'm allergic to eggs. I would eat eggs every morning if I could.

At lunch I can eat very little, but by dinner I can eat much more. Have any of you had that experience?

I get my first fill Monday, Sept 14th. I have lost 2 pounds in the last two weeks, so the weight loss has really slowed down. I know it's supposed to, but it was fun watching the scale go down every day while it lasted. :thumbup: I was feeling quite hungry last week, but this week I started eating regular meals, and I am feeling more satisfied. Now I am questioning whether or not I should get the fill.

I'm sure getting the protein in is a challenge if you don't eat meat. I have considered giving it up. Maybe down the road.
