Banded and feeling great!

It has been along time since I blogged here. I think it was when I was approved which was May 12th. I had surgery on June 18th and am getting ready to have first fill on July 31st. I lost 20 lbs on pre diet and then have lost 14 since surgery. It is coming off slowly but I am glad of that, it is more apt to stay off that way. I am in lap band limbo with very little restriction right now, but use my little plastic rubbermaid containers that hold like 3/4 cup and when the food is gone I stop! Basically, it is a mind game, if you have a craving for something BAD then go have something not so bad, just a small amount. Chocolate, sugar-free pudding has been a life saver for me when that urge to eat something sweet hits me! And it only has like 60 calories!

Keep up the hard work everyone!

Thanks for the tip. I am a big sweet chocolate lover... Jesus how will i get away from it when my time comes
