If you had your band removed why do you sitll come here? To preach that your band removal wasnt your fault? I think you're feeling guilty because you didnt do what you were supposed to or why would you be so angry about it. Stop harassing us with your nonsense because your now miserable. My God face it bands fail because people fail. And no I do not over eat ever you know why???? Because I dont want my band to erode thats why.

You're doing fine. It will move again. As far as starvation mode eventually the body has no choice but to lose. Up your Protein more it will start moving. Hang on.

and it says about three small meals it doesnt say you must.

Do what you want this is ending on my end. If you choose to eat more then you're supposed to then do it. It's not affecting me one bit. I have been successful so eat how you want and when you want. Done here.

I dont take Vitamins. My Vitamin levels are fine except B-12 which I get injections weekly. My doctor told me if your not deficient in vitamins then they are pretty much a waste of money because if your body cant use it then you just paid for expensive pee. If you're not deficient in vitamins I would say not to worry about it. Its more for the by pass patients that need the vitamins. We can still absorb nutrients.

I havent eaten fast food in almost three years. Don't have any desire. I don't understand how people eat that crap at all because it is just that. I don't look at people that have just had surgery I look at everyone. Why would you want that aweful crap in your body.

I make a good black bean casserole
Ingredients

1 cup roasted garlic and olive oil couscous, A Taste of East makes this product
2 15oz cans black Beans washed and drained
1/2 cup chopped peppers
1/2 cup chopped scallions
1/2 cup to a cup kraft fat free cheddar cheese
1 cup mild Salsa
2 eggs
1 cup Fat free mozzarella cheese
2 tblspoons Sour Cream
1 tsp chopped scallions
cooking spray





Directions

Make couscous according to package directions. I used a Taste of East box mix. Takes less then five minutes.
Add all ingredients except eggs and salsa and mozzarella cheese.< br /> Add one table spoon of fresh chopped garlic, and pepper. I did not use salt because the couscous is salty enough.
Mix Salsa and eggs together in a seperate bowl then pour on top of the bean mixture. Do not mix it together.
Pour in a 9x 12 baking dish that is sprayed with cooking spray and top with mozzarella cheese.
Bake on 350 degrees for 30 minutes
Let dish sit for 15 minutes before serving
Top with sour cream and scallions for garnish
Enjoy!

Stay safe hopefully it will be over soon

It will go well. Saying a prayer for you.

doxipupp whatever you think I really don't care. I have been banded long enough to know that reading everyone's post they eat way more then they are supposed to. Then you get filled and are tighter and still eat more then your supposed to. That is why people have issues with esophageal dilation and other problems. The pouch is made to hold two ounces if you eat more then that then be prepared for the problems. I dont care who doesnt like what I say. Most people eat more then they are supposed too.

Well the facts are that most band pts do over eat. The pouch is made to hold 2 oz of food and most eat more at a sitting then 2 oz of food. Most go for a cup of food or a cup and a half. If you have a pouch that only holds two ounces of food and put more in it then that your pouch is being forced in to the band causing erosion. Who said I was blaming you but I guarentee most are eating more then 2 oz of food in one sitting causing erosion. I dont care if you like it but its true.

I dont eat any carbs except veggies. I dont know what the ratio of carbs should be. Eating starchy carbs just makes me feel bad so I sta away from them except for a few crackers now and then with some laughing cow cinnamon cheese spread on it. But then I use the pretzel crisps but I really dont know about the carbs. I try to eat more Protein then carbs so it will burn the fat.

Good for you. It gets easier if you just follow your plan. You will find out later on that those foods dont taste good anymore. Imagine pizza not tasting good lol but I dont eat it.

We want to keep our old habits but you can't. I know its sounds bad but throw the rest away and start now. If you cheat this early in the game then you are setting yourself up to fail. Everyone says so what move on and start over but you have to gain your strength from this moment on. Change your thoughts about food now. Your doing this for you so from now on stop letting food control you.

I dont think one thing she said was condesending. You're just emotional right now and I don't think she was being rude. Cheer up it will get better but you can't take everything that people say thinking they are being rude because I don't think she meant it that way.
