i fell off the bandwagon so to speak and have not being doing what I know I should be doing, luckily I didnt gain any weight but I didnt lose any either. I went to surgeon last week and cried and he suggested I go for an adjustment under fleuroscopy so he can make sure I have a proper adjustment well, no eating 3 hours before so I was scheduled at 12 noon, got up at 9am so i didnt get to eat. he did the procedure, band looks good and he gave me another 1 cc adjustment. my problem is NOW im starving. i had soup, soup and more soup. he says liquids for 48 hours. protein shake isnt helping, im about to eat some solid food, I need encouragment and suggestions of what I can do to not feel like im starving. I am also diabetic so this is making me feel nauseated, I dont want to fall off the wagon again when I just got back on it, but im so hungry. -sigh-

    Okay Kristy, it's mind over matter time. YOU CAN DO THIS! Sometimes drinking water will help me overcome the hunger feeling. Can you go for a jog or get active somehow? That may help take your mind off of it. Think of your goal....and remember that everything you put in your body directly impacts your weight, positive or negative.
