Hello everyone I am new to the board. I was banded 2-23-2011 almost 2 weeks ago. Anyways Im 22 and have a daughter who loves to eat pizza! I have found myself finishing the pizza that she does not eat! I am on the soft food phase for 12 more days and I am cheating by constantly nibbling on things i should not be having. I dont have any problems so far with the food going down my band. I lost 16 pounds so far and have been at a stall for the past 3 days. No one around me has the band so I figured I would join this site to kind of keep me motivated! Right now I feel like I can eat anything and it goes down just fine. I do make sure I do not eat more than a cup of food. I feel bad cheating and want to know if any of you experienced this when your were first banded. Sorry for venting I am just a lil fustrated with myself.
