Why am Iso obcessed with food? I think that I wake up thinking about when I can eat and what I can eat. While I'm eating I think about when I can eat again and what I can have. Inbetween, I'm thinking about what to drink and how much I have left to drink for the day. It has been two months since I was banded.You would think it would be better by now. I get a second fill tomorrow and I know I am going to be chastized for not doing better .My clothes fit better and I seem to have more energy, but I am just so obcessed with food. Motivation seems to be a problem too. And the more my family talks about my "diet", the less control I seem to have. What is the matter withme? Am I ever going to get myself in check? I feel like a whiney brat writing this.

Ahh! I am having the same issues! I was banded mid-may and just had my second fill. all i think about is food and it's totally impeded my weight loss, lately. you are definitely not the only one, not even close. many bandsters have the same issues as you... maybe try an OA meeting? i was thinking about going to one, just for the support.

good luck in everything you do!

I am so glad I stumbled on this site! I was banded June 1st and did great until last weekend, and suddenly I'm consumed with worrying about my next meal. I'm sure I gained. I go next week for my second fill and I too am concerned about being reprimanded. Until this point I didn't even feel like I was "dieting"

Ok, I am thinking about food all the time as well. We are not alone. I do not want to eat crap food just for today. Best wishes imaluckydog
