October Bandsters?

[MiniMi 1,468]

Hunger is this name of the game for a while unfortunately. I drink hot tea in the morning at the end of the day too. I add sweetener to it if I'm especially hungry. Seems to tame the beast. For the rest of the say I just space out the food/ drink.

It gets better by the way.

Good morning LB Fam! I was banded on 10/23 and I'm hungry!!! Is this normal??? Geesh, this isn't fun. To heck with these liquids, I'm ready for a piece of fish or chicken! Even a piece of fruit. Boy oh boy, this is a test of my willpower.

I was banded on 10/9 without restrictions. I was starving, or so I thought, but what I do now is eat about 1/2 to 1 cup every 3 hours or so of mostly Protein. Turkey or chicken lunch meet, some cheese (laughing cow) and maybe half a single serve applesauce. That really works well. Or I really like humus and cucumbers. I lost more weight doing this because my body wasn't going into starvation mode. Hope this helps.

OMG I really need a lashing. These past three days trying to prepare for this storm, and then making it through it I've been grazing ALOT... One of my biggest issues before I started my Weight loss journey. It also doesn't help that the power is still out an food choices are limited.
