I go Nov 3 for my first fill ive lost 23 lbs, but i seem to gain 2 or 3 lbs up down never more than that ! ive been banded since July 22nd,2006 im worried, and i really dont eat alot, i mean i do eat more since first banded, but not really alot. just wondering, any body out except me ?:faint:

coffee makes some people retain water. I know if i drink it everyday i will gain water weight, but thats just me.:think

I have ate steak but have to be careful, white chicken, I have to be careful on, I now eat kfc chicken legs there great ! pork chops are pretty good, if cooked trender. and my all time favorite is a Frappachinno !! :biggrin1:
