new to this thread well actually I have been reading for awhile but this is my first post. I was banded 1/15/2008 just celebrated my one year. i'm down 65lbs but the past two months I didn't loose as I was pregnant but I had a miscarriage so now I'm back to focusing on getting down these last few lbs. I have 20-25 more to go before I want to try to get pregnant again. Anyhow I'm reading all of your posts and feel like I eat so much more than all of you! :cursing:

I feel hungry today already I've had a grande non fat latte, a yoplait fat free yogurt with 1/2cup raisin bran in it, then an hour or so later I had some trader joes honey whole wheat pretzel sticks. (about 10) This totals about 435calories and 1gram of fat. Do you think this is bad? That gives me only 600ish calories for the rest of the day. :thumbdown:I have a hard time with perspective. I guess writing it out it doesn't seem that horrible but I've been telling myself all morning "ugg I've eat'n so much today!" :tt1:

I was banded in December, lost 13 pounds, gained 5 back, then lost another 6... so that's ok. I have had no problems with any kind of food. I haven't tried coffee, don't really need it, no soda either. I have no restriction, had a fill on 1/7, next one on 2/4. I find myself hungry, but when I eat I stop before I feel I should, to be safe. Then I feel full 15 mins later. I'm still new at this. Am I eating enough?

todays meals:

B: worldwide pure Protein Shake

S: 1/4 c tuna with 1 wheat cracker

L: 1/2 cup of salad, 1 grilled chicken taco, no totrilla

D: will have 1 1/2 oz. grilled dover sole, with maybe 1/2 steamed veggies.

B: individual ff yogurt

L: 1/4c cottage cheese (1%); 1 banana

D: 1/4 c of chili; ff yogurt

S: 2 oz soy nuts

Ended up having to have a Protein Shake before bed as both my calorie count and Protein count were too low

oI snack all day long! I'm always popping something in to my mouth :cursing: I just had a fluro the other day to check my band and my nurse wouldn't fill me anymore after we saw that I was pretty darn tight. so how come I still eat so much!? I never have that "oh I'm full!" feeling?

snacking is just easy - cause those chips/ice cream/cookies/etc just go down w/out a fight. i limit the Snacks (husband also banded) in the house and temptation is gone. he's a night snacker & i make sure he has fruits/veggies/nuts to munch on - more so than chips; he has a "crunch" thing.

what helps me is to be a bit prepared of foods in the house & on sundays while the house is quiet - i'll pre make meals for the wk. if i don't plan - i veer off course and make not so hot choices w/food.

luluc-thax for the reply. I'm pretty bad with planning :mellow: I'm not much of a cooker and I'm trying harder to learn and also learn to be prepared. I get really bored at my desk all day and I KNOW that's why I go looking for something to snack on. Believe it or not weekends are the best for me because we are on teh go and I'm busy with the house and family. Sitting at my boring desk all day is terrible :tongue: today I went and bought a bag of cinnimon jolly ranchers. Thought I could pop one in my mouth when I was wanting a sweet snack. Worked good this am when I went 'looking' Held me fine until lunch. I have been pretty good about what comes into the house. My hubby isn't a sweet person at all and I keep a few things around for my son (4yrs) like fruit Snacks which I've only eat'n once or twice when I was really desperate! lol but really he doesn't need the junk either so I try to be pretty good about what is in the cupboards. I'm doing better today. I had my grande non fat late this am and for lunch I had a pita with tuna fish and tomatoe. Im still wanting a little something right now so I fixed a cup of tea and I'm chewing gum! :cursing:

      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.
