I continue to be frustrated with my lap band after three years. This is my first time on a blog EVER!!!! I really want to learn to use this lap band as a tool to lose more weight. I've only lost about 30 pounds during the past three years. My husband has gained 30 because of all my leftovers I give him when we go out to eat.
Breakfast is sparce...one egg (maybe), one bite or two of toast, maybe 2/3 piece of bacon. Then I work all morning on orange juice with a supplement added. I can drink tea all day. Lunch is like a cup of soup or maybe a half of a sparce sandwich and dinner well there is where I really go wrong because I'm hungry. I can eat 6 to 8 ounces of lean grilled stead. Forget the chicken unless it has sauce or is really juicy. I can eat a half of a baked potato but salad....well it is no more. Lettuce just gets stuck no matter how much I chew. And my old time favorites spinach, brussel sprouts, and broccoli are no more, If I eat these they just get stuck and then everything else comes up.
It's one day at a time and I'm ready to begin. I'm not crazy about the protein shakes but I'm not that hungry in the morning so they really aren't appealing. Help.....your suggestions are appreciated.
