7/1/09 Redefining 'Full'

That's really it. Its so hard to stay tuned in to my body and what its saying but its the 'tuned out' state that got me so fat in the first place! I still really have to remind myself constantly to monitor what's going on. When I dont I either get away with overeating or I get the stuck feeling...I prefer the latter because the getting away with it leaves me feeling so bad!!

BG, I love your blog. I really do. This is my second day after LB and I am not feeling very well at all today. I do feel better after reading your blog. My body has been telling me all day to go to the hospital so I did. I have had three meals since my surgery all at home and none of them wanted to stay down. I kept thinking I am just too full to drink all this fluid. Long story short my nurse made me try another protein drink to see if it would stay down. Yes, it did it has 17 grams of protein and it does not taste that bad. I was told I have the Allergan band with a max fill of 10 cc and I have 2 cc in there already. I was surprised with that do you think that is normal? I am so full when I drink anything. I feel like I am sipping 24 7. I am just trying to pay attention to how my body feels. Thanks for being there for me. imaluckydog Kathy

Sending you a PM Kath...hang in there.

You know, Band Groupie, your blog just makes so much sense. My gosh...The definition of full was an eye opener. I've never thought about it like that. Thanks for sharing. Happy 4th!
