Thanks for letting me vent Hi bindi. I too was banded on 5/20 and I have no restriction and it is hard for me to eat slow and chew until Mush. I also get my first fill Monday. I am hungry again now. I just want to eat. I have lost 20 lbs and want to lose 45 more. I want to cry because I think the weight should be coming off faster and I should not be wanting to eat eat and eat 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bindi 94 Posted June 12, 2013 Hi ! We have been eating this way for so long and being hungry makes me eat even faster !!! It's hard to "teach an old dog new tricks" . I to have lost 20 and have 50 more to go which I WILL lose.. I just ate and am hungry also. When I feel this way I will sip on a cup of hot tea and it really helps. Or I'll have a sugar free Popsicle . Good luck on Monday I go Thursday ! Keep me posted and we CAN do this. 2 Bandista and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lalamom 10 Posted June 13, 2013 I was banded on may21 and have really started to get hungry too! It's crazy how that happens. my first fill isn't until the 25th. In the meantime I am exercising and tracking my calories. I have been on a plateau for the last two weeks and that is making me crazy! Definitely going to be ready for a fill!
