  1. I was banded Oct 3, 2012. I feel as though I do not know how to use this band as a tool. My Dr. has different "rules" than most. Do not eat with a meal, as a meal or at least 1.5 hrs after a meal, anything I want to eat, unless you have to eat with a spoon, including oatmeal, no oatmeal. No calories when drinking, only when eating. only 3 meals a day, no snacks. My Dr. does not have a good bedside manner and he is very very fake, acting like he cares when he doesn't. I've had 4 fills. I have not thrown up or got stuck at all. Scale is moving very very very slow. I am losing inches, but do not understand why I gain and lose the same pound every single week for months now Very frustrated.

  3. I had sugery on Wednesday and I am not hungry at all. My stomach starts growling and when it does I eat a little bit of cream soup. I just ate a little too much though I am not drinking anything for at least an hour after I eat any soup. I'm just trying to stay hydrated.
