Just A Bad Day...

[MsDuran 62]

So today I can eat absolutely anything I want to, I even eat a tortilla which I can never do. This may sound crazy but I honestly think something may be wrong here, it just doesn't feel right??!!!

The band isn't supposed to stop you from eating anything. It's not supposed to keep you from eating certain foods nor is it supposed to physically stop you from eating more than a cup. So, don't base how well the band is or isn't working based on that. The band is supposed to help you to be satiated on less food for longer periods of time.

Over time with weight loss, the band gets looser, thus requiring additional fills. It's entirely possible you're noticing a difference in the band because of weight loss and your stomach shrinking.

Ask yourself: Are you satisfied on a cup or less of food for at least 4 hours? Satisfied meaning no longer physically hungry. (it has nothing to do with the inability to eat more, btw) If yes, then your band is right where it should be. If no, then you likely need another fill.

I have never been able to eat bread or tortillas, anything warmed up or left overs, forget about it, some other things as well, maybe you are one of the very lucky ones.

as missy said, the band wont stop you from eating anything (its up to us as to what to eat)

the band just makes eat less. so if you feel you didnt do good today, do better tomorrow.

i hope i am one of the lucky ones myself.

all the best msduran

Wake up and start new tomorrow, maybe it's time for a fill. Keep your eye on the prize just because u can eat it doesn't mean u should. Stop yourself and start over tomorrow! Good luck!
