Lap Band Fills

[elaine3758 6]

Hi,

I have been having a problem trying to get adjusted to a good fill. I am tight but able to eat a cup of food generally. As long as I chew enough and don't eat rice or Pasta. The problem is I get hungry very often so eat too much throughout the day. Just not at one sitting. I've lost about 45lbs since May 19th. But gained 1 lb over the last month.

Need advice.

Elaine

Are you getting tummy rumbling hungry or is it head hunger (cravings) or dehydration (empty stomach feeling)?

Are you eating solid food like lean Protein and fresh veggies?

Are you drinking lots of Water?

Are you wating 30-60 minutes to drink after a meal?

I'm struggling to get back into the groove after the holidays. Also, I can eat more that one cup of food at a time. I got a fill yesterday so I'm hoping that the two days of mushies will get me back on track. I feel like my biggest problem is that I've gotten away from the three meals a day that helped me lose the first 60lbs and I'm not drinking enough Water throughout the day.

Why not revert back to the original diet that helped you lose the first 45lbs.? Start with some chicken/tuna salad with some melba rounds for lunch and some lean fishes and chicken for dinner. Keep the carbs down and drink the water. I'm a snacker by nature so it's been hard for me but I'm trying to snack on low fat cheddar and almonds until I can get it under control.

BTW...your weightloss is fantastic. I wish we didn't have this struggle. Good luck!
