This is my first time posting anywhere!!!! And I see I missed spelling starving in the title -but that is my problem, not staving. I am hoping to get some suggestions to control my hunger pangs. I don't seem to have trouble eating anything (except chicken, turkey any dry meat) it gets stuck. I now understand the stuck and yes it does pass. I have been eating between 800 and 1000 calories a day (a few higher) and I am tryiing to exercise 4 to 5 hours a week. What should I expect to lose - a pound a week or slower? any suggestions would be greatly apprecciated.

I would love to have a mentor - I was banded in December and at this point I am 50 lbs lighter. I started with a bmi of 49 - not sure what I am now. Since my last fill (2 weeks ago) I have had some new experiences. I have had food stick - so I now know what it means, also have had food come back up. I am alittle jumpy at this point so I am eating foods that are soft. Is this normal and will it pass with time? I have a support group that I attend, but it is only once a month. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Billie (from Washington)
