    Here's Me

    Frustrated

    :thumbdown: I got banded on 8/26. The 10 days prior to surgery on the liquid and soft food diet I lost 11 pounds. 1 week post op another 5 pounds. I have lost 36 pounds since March 2009. Here is my frustration: My doctor said to eat 3 meals a day, 2 high protein snacks and drink my liquids and to keep portions to 1 cup. Well, when I have soup I can easily eat the entire can. Mashed potatoes, easily eat 2-4 servings. Tonite, I ate a few chicken nuggests and tater tots and they were so good, but I am starting to feel the pain. And the pain is not in the chest area, it is actually in my lower part of my stomach and at the port site. I would have had gastric bypass, but I could not completely quit smoking. And I have noticed that I am smoking more since I am not eating. I thought my husband and friends and family were going to be my support system, but they are not. This is so difficult and even though my stomach hurts right now, I want to just eat the entire container of left over chicken nuggets and tater tots. I really need to work through this relationship with food. HELP!!!!

    Looking for fellow August bandsters!

    Hey everyone! I was banded on 8/26. I don't go in for my first fill until 9/29. I am getting so tired of this liquid and soft food stuff. Did not have a very good night with food. I have been so hungry today and I just want it to stop.
