I was banded on 1/13/10 and here's what I ate yesterday:

Breakfast: a cup of Greek yogurt w/ blue berries

Lunch: 1/2 cup of tuna salad and a serving a baked cheese crackers, one deviled egg ( two halves)

Dinner: two fried eggs, 3 pieces of turkey bacon and some All fruit jam.

Snack: one deviled egg

I'm working on adding veggies and some days are better than others on that account.

@Jre1974 the band is different for everyone. You will find what you can and can't eat anymore. I can eat salad very easy I have never had a problem wit it going down at all. Now bread or dry meats on the other hand get stuck. There are only certain sub sandwhices I can eat breads if too soft I can't do em. Also eating too fast will make you get stuck that's with anything.

It is good to read these posts. I have been going crazy. I was banded August 2008 and I think I finally have restriction. I ended up gaining back 30lbs of what I lost and here I am again to try to loose it again.

My favorite is FF refried Beans with FF sour cream and salsa. sooo yummy.

Leigha,

What type of beef do you buy? Thanks! Terri

I eat all kinds of beef and pork to cook on the grill, pork chops, I usually have tenderloin if I have a steak, I buy 90/10 hamburger, when I do beef tips I just buy regular stew meat. My husband makes a good green chili that we buy cut up pork for but I buy it at a Mexican grocery store and the name is in Spanish so I don't know what the cut of meat is.

Leigha,

Sounds like you are able to eat most meats and pork. Great! I hope I have the same luck!

I can, but keep in mind 4oz of fish or chicken has a lot less calories than 4oz of beef or pork, so try and go with fish and chicken as much as possible to keep your weight loss moving. When I have steak it always makes me cringe when I have to log it because of the calories.

Leigha,

Good point about the calories in meat. I am also amazed still how many calories are in ground turkey! You are doing great on your weight loss and look great!
