Feeling Very Guilty =(

Hey everyone.....well here's the dilemma. I got my first fill yesterday because I was feeling like I could eat way more than I should! So I thought, I'll get a fill and then I'll feel some restriction and won't be able to get in as much. Not the case today. I went out to lunch with my husband and ate a good sized piece of salmon (maybe 5 oz) along with about 1/2 a cup of steamed broccoli and a small portion (maybe like 10) sweet potato fries. And I stopped myself because I figured I was eating way too much. I wasn't full at all. Now I'm feeling really guilty and wondering how I am supposed to know how much to eat?? :sneaky: I'm just not sure??

Until you are well restricted the band won't do much. For some it can take up to 2 weeks to "feel" a fill. Also depending on how much was put in your band, you may NOT feel any restriction yet.

And quit feeling guilty. You ate salmon and broccoli for gosh sake, not cake and ice cream and root beer floats! :sneaky:

Wow....I was expecting to feel it right away. Yeah I know I didn't eat horribly, but I still feel like I shouldn't be eating until I'm full, but when I do that I'm hungry 2 hours later! haha....I guess it will take a while to find the happy medium.
