Fear of eating in public at times?

[mwlj_2010 1]

I can totally relate!! I just got my fills right after being banded Dec. 29, 09. I am so afraid to eat in public. I never know when I will get plugged!!! :wink: It is not a pretty sight, oh my!! My hsb. loves to eat out, but I've told him to give a little while to get use to this. Let me know if yours gets better.:w00t:

I'm not banded yet so please forgive me for not knowing but what do you mean 'plugged'? Does this happen often??

Sleswick- I ate salad bc of my busy schedule with taking 7 classes, internship, and workstudy...When it came to eating, I had everything down pack. Would drink my choc live right shake 4 Breakfast eat an orange and bananna 4 snack then when Im close 2 school I would grab a salad n eat..,either a salad or a piece of fish..I found that the salad kept me full alot longer though, but I think its cause they added alot of crutons and chicken. Even though it souds fattning but it doesnt harm me because I manage to lose 5 pounds every week from it :w00t: sometimes I get stuck on my first few bites of the salad so I have to sit there and wait 5-10 minutes and then it will all go down

Micky- lmaoo that story is funny. I understand what you mean because I get stuck within the first few bites and I hate it! But once I spit it out a few times I can eat everything lol thats so wierd.

Lindajs- I think when she said "plugged" she meant throwing up

I had my 4th fill 1 wk ago today. For the first few days I could only get liq. down. As the days have passed I been getting better, My hsp & I went out to eat last night and I only got Soup because I was afraid to try anythig else and I did just fine. Today I can eat most anything (in small Qtys of course) so this is really new to me even though my band date was Dec. 31, 09 I am just now at my sweet spot?? Anyone else get better after a week?? Will it get any losser??:w00t:

The band becomes lose around your stomache after you lose alot of weight, thats why they encourage us to continue getting our fills after a great amount of weight loss
