Frustrated

It seems like every time I bring up getting a fill to the Registered Nurse she goes on and on about what I'm eating. I am making good choices with my food but I'm hungry. I can't make her understand I'm HUNGRY. I had no fill during surgery and I feel like I need one now. I got a comment from her that a fill is not the answer. If a fill is not the answer why get the band to begin with. This is a tool and how can the tool work if they won't listen to what I'm going through. I'm fighting hunger most of the day. I have lost 27 pounds but its because I'm going hungry alot. What more I can do to make them listen. I've had a very trying day...Hope tomorrow is better. :lol:

WoW that RN doesn't sound very supportive....Eat if you are hungry...just take a bite of cheese or cut up an apple,a boiled egg,,you dont have to eat a huge meal if you are hungry...you will find it is very satisfying...Good luck girl!!
