elcee 3,341 Posted November 18, 2009 Soup does not keep you full as it slides straight past the band. What you should be eating is some form of solid Protein. This enables the band to work the way it should and should keep you full for longer. I also eat veg and carbs as i find they make a meal more satisfying. I eat things like egg on toast, tuna + salad + crackers, a toasted sandwich etc for lunch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gbakerc 2 Posted November 18, 2009 I was full pretty easily for the first 3 days after my first fill then it took about 0 seconds to get full. I have no restriction. Next fill will be on Dec 3rd. I think it is very common for people not to be full after the first fill. He put in 5.2cc. Hopefully I am not too far away. Greg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neesh 0 Posted November 18, 2009 Oh now I see I need to eat more Protein I forgot about that I guess the few small chunks of chicken that was in my Soup didn't help any. Thanks for the advice. Yeah I got 3cc's monday I guess that's not a lot huh? I have a 10cc band I wonder if people get the fully filled ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
