struggles of the lapband

ok, this post-op diet is killing me, only because Im sooo not use to it. My belly can be full and my brain smells food that I can't have, and my stomach growls. This is really hard to avoid the wrong foods. But i've gave my self chef salad and I find my body to be full with that. I feel I'm doing good because I did lose an additional 3 pounds and I,m also working out twice a week because i want to be realistic with myself. and give myself realistic goals. So I can handle my weight loss myself. Thank god I am getting my first fill nov 18th right before thanksgiving. I am 4 weeks in post op and I am pretty much truthly am on my own diet I do eat chicken tuna and fish but no beef or pork, but even after the 6 weeks i dont think I will be returning to pork or beef. Im fine with the fish and etc. For all you out there thinking the lapband is going tske ur appetite you really need to think again.
