KabinKitty, at first I lost weight on the band. I was 335 five years ago and I went all the way down to 255 at my lowest. Slowly I started to throw up after every meal. So they had to loosen it and as a result I gained weight. So then I got put on phentermine which worked great for a few months and I started losing again. I ended up falling into the 40% of people who had problems, and my problem was I could not fill it enough to keep restriction without puking my guts out after or during anymeal.

The band seriously is a FICKLE BIA!!!!

I too was fearful that the little tiny bit of food was going to leave me hungry, but as you say it is really is just enough. Currently I feel a little self conscious and nervous bout my future success only because I failed with the band. With the band I either threw up while eating or sat there and finished my plate and either way it made me feel like a complete failure.

Little by little every time I go to eat and actually feel restriction and comfort some of my fears are eliminated. SO I guess over time that willl work itself out. I am probably going to have mental food issues for a long time, which is another reason I should go see a therapist.

** I really wish that I hadnt gained 30lbs in the past few months. Instead of 311 I could have been 270 which is what I was a few months ago and my 23lbs would have gotten me further. Now I have to lose what I recently gained.

DONT WAIT PEOPLE>>>>>SEIZE THE DAY!!!! Life is to short to be unhappy any longer.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
