Ok question for all you lovely people out there in band land . I've been told to only eat when I'm hungry and not to skip meals but what if I'm not hungry do I make my self eat ? Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Thanks all :-)

I'm hearing u loud and clear on this one I have a massive sweet tooth but have managed to get a handle on it mostly . My danger period is when I get home from work 4-5 so wat I do now instead of sitting on the couch and grabbing chocolate is taking my dog for a walk removes the hole craving . After dinner I will have a peppermint tea and brush my teeth this all so removed the need for sweets I still find my self opening the fridge but it won't help as I do not keep any off my sweet treats in the house I just don't buy them any more . Sending u strength to resist the sugar monster Good luck

I think I will get myself some new earrings :-) when I drop below 100 my second fill is next Friday would love to be under by then :-) Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Hi all just would like to know if any one experiences band tightening after exercise ? I have been going for nice long walk and then for 1-2 days after have pain in my band and find it a little hard yo get down any thing but liquids . My band is fine other wise I want to start doing more intense work outs or should I wait I'm 7 .6 weeks post op . If I only do 30-40 min walks I'm fine but the hour+ walks and its liquids for 1-2 days . Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Ok a bit if good news bad news for me altho I'm losing weight my husband is stacking it on :-( it's my fault I still cook to much food and he all ways goes back for seconds or finishes my left overs or he adds bread to his plate 2-4 slices . How can I tell him his eating to much when he never complained about my weight . Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Thank you all for your help and support will try talking to him :-) I have been cooking healthy food like stews and curries Soups all things that are slow cooked and soft . Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Hi girls this is my first time of the month with my band . Well they have been trying to come for 4 days :-( been just spotting has anyone else had this ?

One happy girl here just 30kgs to go then we can start our family :-) Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

You can do it the time will pass just measure out your food . I find if I exercise to much my band is very tight and can't get anything down for a few days so I've kept the exercise to long walks for now . Hood luck and you can do this :-) Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Wow congrats you look fantastic :-)

Don't let any one bring you down you have done an amazing job Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Ok first bad day I have had since being banded very upset and emotionally drained now what I would normally do is eat chocolate and everything I can lay my hands on :-( dose any one have any advice on what I can do instead of my emotional eating that will help me feel better . Really down and out Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Thank you so much :-) when I finish work I'm going to take my dog for a nice long walk and most likely have a cry I WILL NOT EAT if still sad will try the bath Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Yep was trying to find a nice way to say it lol .most of the time within a day or two . Had nun of the regular signs of it starting like sore breasts . Will give it a few day and go to the doc

Oh and very hungry craving sugar

I'm a little worried I know I need it as I'm eating a little more and more often but as its my first not to sure what to expect .

Wasn't bad had 2cc in my band from op and she put in 2cc more :-)

Hang in there get the tape measure out and see how you go you may have lost cms rather then weight . See how your cloths feel bet there feeling looser :-)
