Around Christmas this past year, I did. It was the only time since being banded I actually had a gain (about 7 pounds). For about a week I ate pretty much anything and everything I wanted. It wasn't good.

Just get back on track before you sabotage all the hard work you've done so far.

It happens to the best of us. Just remember tomorrow is a new day. Also can I make a suggestion? The Atkins Peanut Butter cups are amazing! 160 calories for 2 but 2g of Protein I love them but I eat them frozen!

I struggle with full time deprivation. So I eat everything - chocolate, chips, whatever. But I portion it out and savour it. I had a tim tam this morning. For those who don't know what that is, it is a chocolate covered cookie made of HEAVEN. But I can actually have just one and say to myself, if I ever REALLY feel like another, I can always go to the shops and get one. And yet, when the time comes, I just don't, because I don't feel that sense of 'loss'.

I'd rather eat a little of any one thing that a lot of it in a binge. I think breaking the habit of binging is fundamental to being able to live with the band long term, imo.

Hello everyone. Today marks my first month postop and I have not eaten anything considered "bad" or junk food. However, there are 100 calorie Snacks in my house. They consists of chocolate chip Cookies, and some other stuff. The good news is that I have never been tempted, but if I ever am tempted, I don't think I'll feel guilty to eat a pack. I can simply eat it and go to the gym and burn the extra 100 calories in 30 minutes. It's feels great to have a "plan" that won't sabotage my weight loss.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
