Iwas so glad to see other peole felt the same way about eating as I do. I HATE IT!!!!! I try to eat the smallest of bites but still have stuck issues with meat. I don't go out anymore beacuse I can't even eat half of a childrens meal and have gotten tired of peoples comments. It really help to see I am not alone. Sometimes I think I made a mistake, but when I get ont he scale and see the weight I have loss I know I did the right thing.

I have a magic bullet I got at Walgreens. I really love it and it cleans so easy!!!!!! -
I have tried it and could not get it down, I think it really depends on how tight your band is and how well you chew it up. Try a little and see what works for you. Just chew well and eat SLOW!!!!!!!
