K6TYX 8 Posted January 12, 2013 I had surgery june 2012, I have a 14ml with 7.25 in. If I eat too fast I can feel restriction and usually end up bringing it back up. If I take my time I can eat too much (I think) so far my weight loss is 5lbs in total... I'm just glad I didn't tell a whole bunch of people because I feel a failure. I haven't got my head round this, I wish I also got councelling because the 'crap' food goes down no problem... any advice anyone??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roscoe368 62 Posted January 12, 2013 Don't eat the crap foods. This is a tool. You still need to make healthy choices. Eat what you were told, drink lots of Water.< /p> 2 ☠carolinagirl☠ and kmaas21605 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roscoe368 62 Posted January 12, 2013 Also, I'm on a restricted diet. Mostly Protein. Small portions of fruit & veggies. I have a shake a day, and drink lots of Water. I gave up coffee & pop. Which was huge for me. Doc said I could have coffee later, but I've decided I'm not going to. Caffeine was difficult for me to give up and if I go back, I'd prob would drink pop, which we can't. Besides its not reall good for you. It's not a piece of cake, but if you follow these steps, you should see a difference. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted January 12, 2013 k6, we were banded the same month like the other great posters here, we made a huge change in our thinking and eating...how is your food?? the band is not about doing without you are not a failure and i wont allow you to say that..so stop eating the crap food and change to better/healthy foods....if you cant eat, maybe a slight unfill..you need to be able to drink and eat comfortably.. please believe in yourself..you cant do it unless you do that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
