Hi again to all Bandsters!!

Well, I am officially in bandster hell. I've started doing the 'almost' real food part of the post surgery diet...and am finding that I can pretty much eat what I want, albeit it smaller and more well-chewed bits than before band. I need a fill!! (I have my first fill appointment on 6 October.) Here's a bonus tidbit I've learned - I now KNOW when I'm hungry!!! I feel like I've got a cramp in my stomach/diaphram area that gets more intense the longer I've gone without having a little something. Isn't that amazing? To be 38 years old and JUST NOW discovering what hunger feels like??? <GRIN>

I was kind of scared about the whole knowing when your "REALLY" hungry thing. Because I know I eat alot when my head is telling me instead of my Stomach. I hope I am as good as you at recognizing real hunger instead of head hunger.

I thought the same thing...hunger actually sort of HURTS now! I was really freaked out when I started on mushies. I was hungry all the time. But now that I've moved on to solids I feel full much sooner.
