It's hard when your used to eating a certain way and then suddenly stop. When my husband snd I spend all day out with the kids, we would always get take out before we came home. Now they get take out and I come home and eat something else. The first time there was a Dominos pie in my house I cried cause I couldnt eat it but I'm a little more focused now!!

I also eat 2 egg whites with 2 to 3 turkey sausage links for breakfast. I eat greek yogurt if i dont feel like making breakfast. I have discovered morningstar veggie patties which taste amazing and they are only 150 calories! I make shrimp and broccoli all the time. It's less than 100 calories for a cup! I'm still in between surgery and my first fill but have a pretty good restriction already! I have tried to eat everything except carbs like rice, pasta, potatoes, breads, cereals, I've had none of that stuff yet. Someone suggested to me that when I feel I want to "cheat" to have a weight watchers or lean cuisine meal...... I'm dying for pizza!!!! Lol

I was wondering, if your counting calories how many are u eating WITH successful weight loss??? I'm aiming for 809 but almost never get there because I'm never hungry and I haven't even had my first fill yet

I was told to watch the carbs. My nutritionist said 3 oz of Protein m, 1/2 cup of veggies and 2 tablespoons of rice or Pasta only if u have room after the protein and veggies. I was told I can have 1 slice of whole wheat toast or 2 to 3 crackers but I can't eat just 3 crackers so I don't even bother. The carbs that I do eat are whatever is in a Protein shake or yogurt. I was banded on may 31 St and I don't think I have eaten any pasta, rice, or bread since. I've been very lucky! I have no fill yet and a pretty good restriction. My nutritionist also said never eat more than 1 cup of food at a time!!!!

I'm not eating anything near that and the weight loss is so slow

June 5 was ur surgery date then you should still be on liquids and mushy foods.

Congratulations. I was banded on may 31st and lost 17 lbs so far. The first 15 came off so easily that I can only assume it was mostly water. The last 2lbs were a struggle. Nothing is wrong, from surgery to your first fill your going pretty much by will power..... Or so I've been told

I had my surgery may 31 St and lost 17lbs so far but the wreight loss slows after a while. I exersize an hour everyday and never eat more than 500 calories. Everyone is different and I will not be discouraged! Hang in there

No, I didn't get a plication

I was banded on may 31st. I lost 17lbs. I'm eating no more than 600 calories a day and I barely get thrm in either. I don't have a fill yet so I'm not sure why I'm not hungry or why I get full so fast but I'm glad I'm not bring tortured my the need to eat! How's yourxweight loss??

I had my surgery on a thurs snd hog my period on Saturday....

I did not gain but I'm not losing as fast. Time to crank up the exercise intensity

I would say no too retried beans 10 days out..... I think that's like week 4 for me... 2 weeks of full liquid, next week pureed soups like lentils and yogurts and week 4 mushies..... I was banded on may 31st and lost 17lbs...... Stick to what they tell you and good luck!!!!!

Was wondering ig you could ever eat pizza again???

It's been 3 days now and I'm feeling much better now!!

I was banded on may 31 so I'm one day ahead if you. I have chest pains too, I find them more so after I drink something too fast or sip a little too much. I found walking helped relieve a lot of the pains I was having.

I was banded in may 31st. I have a terrible headache and um assuming it's from not eating. I don't have as much pain but aim still a little sore and very week. I also thought all day yesterday........ Why did I do this ???

Everyone has slip ups, put it behind you and move on!

I was banded may 31 St and im down 2 lbs already!!!! Stay focused!!!!!

I was banded yesterday and the gas is kiing me. I'm so bloated, I gained 2 lbs in the hospital

Hoping for a successful journey!!

I paid $200 cash insurance didn't cover it

I everyone. I'm getting banned on may 31. I was wondering how much weight people were losing in the 1st few months

Thanks for the feedback. I have been hearing stories of ppl losing very small amounts of weight and I was starting to worry
