My journey

This will be about my journey loosing weight after having the lap band. I had it on Feb. 17th 2009. I weigh 244 and I want to get to 150. I am nervous about the whole process. I eat so much and I love food. How will I do? How do I train my brain that enough is enough? I am very sore so far and I am also hungry. I don't get my first fill for 6 weeks. I stay on a liquid diet for 2 weeks. I am hungry! lol I am sticking with it though and doing what I should.

STICK WITH IT.. you can do it.. we all love food & love to eat. Its a fear that everyone has, I suppose. Eat/drink slowly, stay away from temptations, chew gum, keep busy. Once you get used to the new lifestyle mentally and physically... it will get easier. Then you will start seeing results and you will be more motivated. Good luck!

I didn't expect to be this hungry. It gets worse and worse. I just starve. If the hunger wasn't so bad it wouldnt be so bad but I am starving!!!!!! Is this normal???
