mrycrltn 2 Posted April 5, 2006 First off, Congrats on your band. Welcome to bandland. I felt the same way in the beginning. Just eat when your stomach starts to growl. Ignore the head hunger. You will get use to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beautifultina 1 Posted April 5, 2006 Welcome to the other side.... I have truely never felt hunger since being banded. for me it has all been head hunger. I eat my premeasured portions (when ever possible ) at regularly scheduled times (as my work schedule will allow). I try not to eat more than three meals a day. If i do give into the head hunger I try to stay with Protein Bars and healthy Snacks like cut up apple slices or a small handful of frozen blueberries or a snack pack of yogurt. This is where a call to your nutritionist comes in handy. Call and ask for them to call you back or to email you snack/ meal ideas. They usually are more than happy to help. Best of luck on your Journey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
