Have you had a fill?? The reason I ask is because I'm am feeling and doing the same thing, and I think It might have a tad to do with fact that I have not had a fill yet?? I'll be your buddy, This is a jurney and I feel that we can use all the support that we can get!!! Good luck, and I hope your feeling better soon.. remember all diets are hard, but we have a great tool to help us!!

How do you get fiber in your diet?
Tarafeena replied to Iluvharleys's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I eat it where I can, then if that does not work, I take a swig of french vanilla milk of magnesia every other day at night until things are going at a normal pace, if you know what I mean? This stuff is safe for you. Hope this helps you, I know it's not fun!!!! -

A bit pink..... Please know that you are not alone.. I was feeling just like you and mentioned it to my DH and he said "babe, band or no band any diet is hard, it's not just because you have the band." that seemed to help me because it is so true,before you know it you will be eating normal foods..I am 4 weeks out and just went snow skiing and ate with everyone, I just ate alot less!!! Hang in there and remember that you are not alone and You can do this!!!! Good luck to you... -
Ok, I am now eating a little solid food but after reading about the PB'S I was wondering if someone can help me, how do you know that your stoma is full enough to stop?? I want to be good but at the same time I am a tad scared to eat.. Is it just me??? I thank you in advanced for your time....

Thank you Paula, I'm going to try cheese cubes, they sound yummy...

WOW!!! DINALI, Thank you so much for your post, if I could touch you, I would give you a big hug... So kind of you to take your time for me.. Your post hast already helped me today, My left sholder was hurting so I stoped eating and within 30 sec. I could feel a fullness. Then 10 min. later or so, it felt as though my port was throbing??? And I have had this before but just thought is was part of the healing process, well now I know that its a sign....And thanks for the heads up on not to swallow the saliva because I'm sure that would have been the first thing that I did...Again THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!!! Your the bomb!!! Tara
