ema04fsu 0 Posted February 14, 2006 Hi everyone, I'm considering getting Lap-Band surgery and I have done my research and I don't question that the band will work, I just question my ability to follow such a strict eating plan. Did anyone else have issues with staying on plan? Any advice? Thanks a bunch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alexandra 55 Posted February 14, 2006 Eating plan? What eating plan? My plan was/is for the band to help me eat LESS. If I wasn't prepared for that I never would have done this. I eat whatever and however much I want, the key being that this has changed a lot over the last 2.5 years. The post-op regimen is a little difficult, but it's temporary. And we ALL have experience with sticking temporarily to restrictive diets. No problem. Once you're back on solid food you have to trust your band to guide you, and ALLOW it to teach you that you have a totally new and smaller capacity. As far as variety goes, it's all good. It's just the AMOUNTS that have changed. And that's all we need to lose weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
