honk 780 Posted May 11, 2012 Jealous! Is you band too tight? My doctor says if I can't eat 3 oz of solid Protein I am too tight. If you can eat veggies it sounds like you can eat mushie foods (cooked veggies are kind of mushie). Taking out .1-.2 cc's will be better for you than keeping the band too tight and then not being able to eat protein which will keep you full longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
