Yea..try to drink hot liquids...ur mind is the easiest to trick but ur body will take sometime especially pre fill. After first fill or when u reach green zone it will switch...to ur mind telling u its hungry n wanting more bc ur brain is confused on y u stopped eating so soon...but ur body will be sayin.."ugh im full as hell" off of just three bites

Almost under 300....just 8pds to go.....started at 392 in jan, band in june at 361 now almost five months later down 61 pds total 90

here is a way to have pizza even if you cant band it....crust made from cauliflower/yes.the veggie our moms made us.eat when we were kids..... got it from spark recipes but you can type in cauliflower crust pizza n get a recipe...but basically it includes finely chopped cauliflower, egg, seasonungs like fennel, parsley, oregano, basil, there are measurements but i just added to taste....flatten out..bake crust for 15+ min until crust is golden, flip if desired n baked on back...then add spaghetti sauce, n toppings....its 150cal bc u added ALOT of toppings...green peppers. onion, mushroom, Canadian bacon, more bacon(i love bacob), tomatoes mozz abd.cheddar cheese n spinach...a simple pizza w cheese n one topping coukd easily be only 50 ~75 cal [ATTACH]24827[/ATTACH] Sent from my SGH-T989 using LapBandTalk

cool i recommend cooking crust longer n flipping n baking on both.sides....i didn't do that so my edges were perfect n crisp but the inside was softer...still good tho..also try to flatten as much as possible....n enjoy... Sent from my SGH-T989 using LapBandTalk
