Day 22

I am starving!! hehe. What the hell I have an appetite. :tongue_smilie:

 

I hope this is normal. I am eating mushy foods fine which somehow has my brain thinking I eat like a normal person.

 

I have been trying to resist all my urges. It's so hard! I had chocolate today :)

 

I am not sure why I am hungry I already ate twice today. Wah.

Perfectly normal...I could have eaten my youngest at your stage. It's all up to you and willpower until you get enough fills...then the band will be there to help you. Keep the faith and don't get too discouraged (and get in as much protein as you can to curb the hunger)...have some patience and the restriction you felt immediately post-op will be back. I accidentally skipped lunch today and didn't even realize it until hours later...amazing!!!! I've been on EVERY diet out there and have lost thousands of pounds...I was STARVING the whole time. I love my band and you will too. Best wishes! -BG

Thanks for the encouragement :tt1:

I am trying hard to make the best choices for food. All the protein I eat in the day helps me way later in the day and has made my dinners better. Did you get a fill at 4 weeks? I am trying to figure out if I should go for it sometime next week. I am at 4 weeks today. I was banded in Mexico and my Dr. says to wait 6 weeks so it heals properly. But I might just gain weight if I wait that long.
