ok one more thing!! I know it is not healthy!! But like with the band can you eat a hamburger and pasta, stuff like that???

Thank you Leslie!! You helped me alot!! So when did you start eating the refried beans?? That actually sounds great! Another thing is, my doctor said I should have 5 2-3oz mines a day, however all I eat now is one pack of gritts and a jello... I am just not hungry! When did you get your band?

I totally understand!! I was banded on 8/1! I am still in pain, actually in just one place. So far I have tried sugar free jello and gritts!! How many times a day are you eating?

I got the band on 8/1 and wow I did not think it would be this painful!!! OMG, it hurts so bad to sit up when laying down!! It is getting better though. I also did not realize I would have 5 scars from this, but I guess it will be well worth it. I went back to work Monday, so only had Sat and Sun to recoop!! So far I have triend to eat gritts and sugar free jello!! Can anyone give me some advice about what else to try??? I go back to the doctor tomorrow... Anyways, I am so excited to join with all of you, I have been reading for a while... One more thing, how long did it take everyone to really start loosing?
