I was banded on 11/10/11, My hungry is back now! I miss the little meals and being full for hours! hope the fill helps, but mine is in 2 WEEKS!!!! Hope I can continue to lose and be hungry!

I am new here as well lookin for banded friwnds! I was banded on 11/10/11! About the Protein shake I caught a sale at publix for EAS advantEDGE, 17g protien 3 g carbs. I think they are reasonable in the taste department, not like milk and Cookies but I drink them everyday for Breakfast...And I must add I am REAAALLLLLYYYY picky when it comes to taste...I tried whey Protein shakes but the only way I can stomach it is in coffee and add extra cream then CHUG! Hope this helps! Feel free to message me, or add however this thing works! I would love to have banded friends! ~Shaggy

I have Tricare as well. I had a relativly easy bout with this. If you answer the questions the way THEY want you to answer you should be just fine! The person doing the psych eval is not a psychiatrist (personally I think my life is my business...) After I did the required nutritional class I was approved within 3 days (thurs, fri monday got the call) I was scheduled for surgery ASAP! Havent had a problem! As far as insurance goes! I hope it is just as easy for you! Best of luck to you!! ~Shaggy

I am new here as well. I was banded on 11/10/11. I have recently gotten my hungry back! But I feel full easy and use coffee, Water and sugarfree drinks to fill me until my next meal, but when I do that I am not hungry at meal time. I only eat small portions, but feel pain if I eat too quickly or too much! I have been noticing a strange pain under my rib cage on the left side when I breathe...will be calling doc. in the morning. But you are doing great with your weightloss...regardless of age men tend to loose easier than women. I hope you continue to loose rapidly!! best of luck to you ~Shaggy
