I would try and stay away from the protein shakes and eat solid foods which keep you full. I work nights too and have a weird eating schedule. I don't have that much fill and I eat at least a cup and a half of food at meals and still have been loosing. I eat a lot of salads, I eat the meat usually chicken first and what is left in the salad until I feel I've had enough.

I was banded nine days ago and still on liquids. I have been getting hungry, but trying to fill myself up with low cal selections. Different soups that I put in the blender, protein shakes, watery cream of wheat, yogurt, decaf coffee, water etc. Can hardly wait for the mushy stage!

I've heard with the band you metabolize alcohol faster with the band, in other words you get drunk faster with less alcohol.

Great weightloss! Hope I can do the same. Having surgery on Feb 3rd.
