CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted January 12, 2013 It is hard to tell. I would go with what the doctor told you to do. Don't eat and talk on the phone at the same time. It is too easy to get distracted. It sound like you are tight to me if you can only take four bites. You do chew right? 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted January 12, 2013 Losing slows down as you progress on the journey... We tend to lose fast in the beginning then it tapers off. You should be taking at least 20 minutes to eat a cup of food. Are you doing that? 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MsRhonda 123 Posted January 12, 2013 No not at all floridays not at all at first yes now no i need to buy some smaller silverware IM MY OWN MOTIVATION Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted January 12, 2013 No not at all floridays not at all at first yes now no i need to buy some smaller silverware IM MY OWN MOTIVATION this is very important to avoid getting stuck or other problems to your band.... Smaller silverware helps but just cut it up in pieces about the size a toddler would eat...and put your fork down inbetween bites. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

line-dancer 810 Posted January 13, 2013 It was hard to follow what you need to know. I have a 100cc band with 6.5cc in it and eat every 4 hours one cup of food about 4 times a day...I have lost 47 lbs since Oct.. the doctor should be giving you a small class of Water to check that you are not to tight if he doesn't be sure to ask for one. Hope this helped Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
