Same here...3 years coming up, don't worry about calories either...just learned to eat right....

Below goal also...way y Dr. explains it...if you are truly living the new life with the band, and not dieting, then your body will self adjust to your new ways of eating - living...it will return to where it should be...NORMAL!

Congratulations...enjoy your new life after the weight loss phase...it's indescribable, isn't it...

Yes B-52 it is. It is really amazing how this band works. I'm like you, I can't overeat if I tried. If I forget and eat quickly, the band does what it's supposed to do. I'm still losing inches even though I'm not trying. Life is totally grand!!! Thank you.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
