hey friend whats ur calorie intake??

Im learning to I knowhow to cook its just all the countin and measuring that gets on my nerves. my doc told me to eat a piece of meat the size of the palm of my hand and on the rest of the saucer it should be veggiess.... he advised me to take a bite or 2 of meat chew chew chew then a fork of veggies then wait 10 mins (with good restriction) u should be full but if not take another bite... hopefully this can help if u like we can can share recipes when we get them Im open to it

wow thats great how many fills have u had so far??? I guess when I get real restriction I will lose it to... Keep up the good work... when u were too tight did u get unfill or just waited it out

hey dragonflylover how r u doing? Have u had a fill yet? R u at a standstill with ur weight. Thanks for the encouragement

Im at the stage where I was told 2 eat egg mcmuffin for breakfast, 1/2 turkey sandwhicg 4 lunch with mayo lettuce cheese n tomatoe, dinner baked meat with brocolli or other veggies. U know we nt suppose 2 eat n drink at the same time 2 wait 30-40 mins b 4 u drink liquids if thats the case can I eat cereal??? isnt the skim milk pushing the cereal down making my band less full? help me im confused...

thanks. My doc gave me more options 2 try as well nt just the egg mcmuffin. He told me 2 take a bite or 2 of the sandwich or what im eating then wait ten mins i should feel full if nt after 10mins take another bite. What is ur daily diet like what r u eating? How much have u lost since surgery?

thanks oc mom!

what can u eat?

My doc advised me 2 eat egg mcmuffin whether I cook it at home or buy one from the restaurant. I also stated n my post that Im eating Special k cereal with skim milk. I thought that cereal was a good choice. My doc told me 2 take a bite or 2 off the sandwhich or meal chew chew chew n wait 10 mins then if i cn stand another bite go 4 it but I should be full. I see more n more that all doc r different from just reading the posts on here

yes im here humming bird. lol yes this thread went crazy but I agree with u egg mcmuffins r an excellent breakfast choice so im really leaning towards my doc's advice. he hasnt steered me wrong yet :wub:

thanks 4 the info

have u had a fill yet? if so u might have restriction

Ive been eating 1/2 a bowl special k cereal n it has fiber n protein n it with a little skim milk n it keeps me full

how many fills did it take u before u had good restriction n the weight started coming off? I had my 1st fill dec 21st n it has been very confusing. right after the fill i felt restricted but as the days went bk the restriction was less n less. usually n the morning im full n tight nt hungry but at nite it feel like my band is wide open n the restriction is on vacation. What should I do? Has anyone else experienced this?
