I am so glad I am not the only one that doesnt feel hungry. I am bad at not eating though. I was never a breakfast person and now unless I drink protein in the morning I will forget to eat until the afternoon. I really dont know what to eat so sometimes I dont eat. I know thats not good. Anyone else have a hard time with chicken and steam veggies?? I digest them really hard. I get frustrated because I can eat fattening foods easier than healthy foods.

I am 5.6cc and doing ok. I was banded in May 2010. I dont really feel restrictions but I dont feel hungry very often. I am going in next week for another fill. I will feel real restricted for about 2 weeks then not so much till the next fill . I need to exercise more. I dont understand why bad foods go down easier than the healthy foods. I get chicken and turkey stuck but I can eat creamy soups or mashed potatoes easy. Im with all of you its frustrating. Good luck to you all. Hopefully 2011 will bring all of us luck

Thank you so much

Hey Amy, How do I make my Ticker factory stay on all my replies or do I have to copy and paste everytime?? Thanks

Hi! I was banded 5/17/2010 Laproscopic. I have 4 incision scars and 1 port scar. They are little red slits. Sorry to hear you had to be cut open with big scars. Good luck with your band. Surgery 5/17/2010 Starting weight 213 5/2010 Current weight 178.5 10/2010 Dr. Garcia Bakersfield, CA

Hi! I was wondering how do I do the weight ticker. I would like to have that to track my progress:smile2: Thanks

I am sorry to hear your band slipped and had to have surgery:frown:. I am new to this I was just banded May 17th 2010:thumbup:. I weighed 213lbs. I had to go to the Dr today:confused:. Today I weighed 178.5lbs:w00t:. About 2 weeks ago I started getting food stuck and sometimes would vomit. I thought maybe I had eaten to fast. I started getting frustrated and scared so I called the Dr and they told me to come in right away. I went in. Last time I went to the Dr was in Aug I had 5.6cc in my band. Today Dr took out 1cc so now I am down to 4.6cc. I was able to eat tonight with no problems. Now I feel guilty for being able to eat and not feel so restricted. I didnt want to be unfilled but Dr doesnt want my band to slip. I have so much more weight to lose. I feel I need to be tighter:frown:. Good luck!!! Hope you feel better soon:smile2:

Hi! I was banded May 17,2010. I now have 5.6cc. I now feel restricted. I have to sip water or it will make me sick.:cursing: I also have to chew my food very good. Portions definitely smaller. It will happen. Good luck. Shawna~
