wow, I only got 1.3 in my first fill and I feel no different. No wonder. I ate at least 2 c of rice and beef at a chinese place and didn't fill like I was gonna die. I felt normal. I even lost .5 pounds yesterday. I've lost 20.5 pounds from my largest weight. -

Pleae keep on keeping on. I've seem this work in lots of people. Won't it be great when you get to your goal weight - and you will. Eat lots of protein first for every meal. Drink protein shakes for breakfast or a couple of scrabbled eggs. Don't drink anything for an hour after you eat. Then drink water like crazy. Don't snack. Get rid of everything like that in your house. It will work. Keep on trying. You can do it.

Im new here and have surgery on Tuesday!

You will be ok in about 5 days. I was scared, too, but the worst for me was the shot in the hand to put me to sleep. haha I'm such a sissy. You need to rid your house of any snacks. I drink Muscle Milk Protein shakes. vanilla. They will fill you up. Matter-of-fact you can't drink all of it. Be sure to drink your water and you shouldn't get hungry. Atkins mocha latta are a good fast drink, but the strawberry banana looks clabbered. Awful. -

Has anyone had their band to slip? How do you know? I ate and ate tonight and I never felt stuffed. I've never tried it before.

Does everyone really eat proteins first
icandoit5 replied to NJGirl32's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I've only had a lap band for 8 wks. I always eat scrabbled eggs for breakfast, or mostly Muscle Milk Protein shakes mixed with 1 c skim milk with frozen fruit added. Love the shakes and they are fast. Also Atkins Mocha Latte shakes - premixed in a can. -

First time online with you and had a question. I'm like 8 wks out of surgery and only one fill. Tonight I tought I'd just have Chinese food (rice with beef). I ate more than 2 cups of food and didn't ever feel sick. I never ever tried before to push the issue. I usually eat 1 cup total for a meal or have a shake. Do you think my band has slipped off?
