Lap band and volume eaters.

[househuntress 1]

I'm wondering what the rate of lose is for volume eaters. I'm hoping that lap band really helps the volume eater...which I am one.

I like sweets at times but my main problem is too much food. In other words is the lap band better for one type of over eaters than the other?

Ok...so I eat probably much more than others here on the band...side plate portions usually...Still less than a quater of what I used to...but I believe I have stretched my pouch a bit...but combined with exercise i am still managing to loose weight...allbeit slowly...what it comes down to is When/If I exercise regularly I loose weight consistently if I don't...then I just seem to stay the same.

I used to try to finish off a half gallon of ice cream because I didn't want to get freezer burn on it. Now I buy single serve portions and sometimes even that is too much. I had always thought if a little is good, more is better. Now I eat until I'm full, and then I'm satisfied.

I was a volume eater before the band. I could eat a huge roast dinner and two Desserts and still have room to spare. Since the band I can only eat a couple of ounces at a time. The one time I ate much I PBed!
