OMG... I've been looking for a thread like this FOR THE LONGEST! I'm six months post pregnancy and have YET to get to my sweet spot. For one thing, my fill tech just wont fill me. Not sure what her issue is. Anyway, I really want to know what are the best foods to eat to get back on the bandwagon. I feel like i've TOTALLY forgotten what to do, now. ae :thumbup:

I was banded 12/06. I started losing in 2008 and was very successful. In 2009 I found out I was pregnant and I just had my baby in January. Now that she's 6 months, I'm attempting to get back on track but it's the HARDEST thing to do! I almost feel like I'm totally new at this thing and am wondering how to get back on track. The fill center I was going to prior to my pregnancy is no longer my choice location. The fill tech is no longer there and the new one refuses to fill me to where i feel i should be. Just to be clear, I'm not one that wants to only be able to take in liquids! However, I don't believe i should be able to digest breads and pastas. Am i incorrect? Anyway, I'd just like help and maybe a little motivation to get back on track! I gained 30lbs while pregnant and my overall weight loss before my pregnancy was 75lbs... HELP!
