Good 30 g protien shake at market cooler in veggie isle costs same as just the burger but more flavor protien and v&m plus keeps u satisfied 2-3 hours if drank moderately. 50 lbs to go thanks for support!

So, where is your port? Is it near your belly button? Do you have any other incisions (port or otherwise) near your belly button?

You're losing 10 lbs a month, and that's pretty good, in my opinion. I've only been banded for a little over two months and had three fills and don't particularly feel like I've had restriction yet. However, from all the research I've done, I'm thinking "feeling full" now is going to be much different than it was before being banded. I "think" the fullness is more in the chest now than in the stomach. Long-time bandsters please correct me if I'm wrong.
