Lapbandster I started to feel restrictions right away. But I statred to eat more food about two weeks before my first fill. I got my first fill July 12. And now a month into it I am full for about six to seven hours and ear less. But I do have some days that I can eat a little more. It's still all about willpower. And making right choices. I could eat pizza for dinner if I wanted to but it's about being wise and eating lean protein and veggies.

Mybella I get anywhere from 70-80 grams a day. Everything I eat has Protein in it.

Today it's been four months post-op. Pre op weight 350 Today's weight 299.2 50 pounds gone and I no longer weigh 300 pounds. I'm loving this new way of living.

Hello Fellow Lapbanders... Hope you are all having a fun, happy, and healthy day. Today is day four of my first fill and I am loving it so much. I fill fuller longer and eat less food now. Now we are on to something LOL.... So I have a question of the day for you guys, What do you do to handle or overcome or candy/chocolate craving?????? I purchased a bag of mini Peanut Butter cups thinking I could do one a day....HUGE fail. I almost ate the whole bag without paying attention and i wasnt even hungry..It is crazy but this was a lesson learned. Can't wait to hear you guys, Laiza

Hello everyone, I am so happy that I found this website. I need all the help I can get. So I had my sugery on 04/12/2012. Before the start of the liquid I was at 340. The day of the surgery I was down to 323. A week after my surgey I went down to 313. As of today I have been eating regular food for a week and i have gained 3 pounds. Is this normal? I have been working out everyday for an hour and only eating three meals and one snack a day. I have not been filled yet. I aam so scared that now I am eating i will be ganing more and more weight. Please tell me that this is normal. I also am not eating sugers, bread, Pasta, rice. Just eatting veggies fruits and protien. Any advice out there. HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
