Yes that makes sense thanks I wasn't very clear. I was banded in jan 13'. I have only had soup on liquids after banded and fills. Now that it's getting cold I've been craving it!!!! I will stick to 1 cup of healthy soup. Thanks

A soup ok bc of the liquid?

I had buffalo chicken salad with pretzel chips about 3/4 cup and 8 chips. For dinner shirataki noodles and 4 shrimp in a peanut spicy Thai sauce about a cup really good!!! That's about it and coffee of course.

I had a cup of crack slaw it was soo good my whole family loved it. Gonna have it again tomorrow!!!!

Is it ok to eat more then a cup if it's salad lett Tom cukes and protein like chicken or shrimp?

I'm cutting my hair off tomorrow I have so much hair falling out and the breakage is ridiculous. But it's ok it's just hair and now that my face is thinner it will be ok. I'm upset a little but the 70 pounds I have lost so far makes it worth it!!!!

I use to never have a problem with it but I guess as I have seen other posts foods that were never a problem can become one. Next time I have it I will make sure it's mushier.

Anyone have trouble eating broccoli? I had grilled chick and steamed broccoli. I recently had my 3 fill and I had to run to the bathroom at the restaurant anyone experience that?

I can really relate to your post as of today I am down 70 as well.I was banded 1/10/13. I feel so much better and am looking forward to getting my body back to healthy!!!! I too would like to lose 100 more and even though it seems like a lot it won't be so bad cause from this point on its only gonna get better and better!!!! Congrats you look fantastic!!!!!!!!!

Just made egg roll tacos which are the perfect size for bandsters low fat and so good. I'm gonna try pizza egg rolls next if anyone's interested in recipe they have some on you tube or Emilybites.com

I love Moes and the kids menu is perfect the moo moo mr cow is the best a burrito just the right size I go there at least once a week

Her recipes are delicsious the buffalo meatball are the best!!!!!!

Still don't really get it but thanks for the replies

Can you please tell me what foods are sliders? Not sure what they are exactly. And is it just a term for junk food?

I think I will use it as a side dish that sounds good if it starts interfering with my weight loss I guess I will have to cut it out.

I was just wondering being that summer is here and banded in December. How do we eat fruit I don't snack and eat about 2 meals a day can I have fruit and how much?

I was eating from head hunger I wasn't truly hungry so before it got out of hand and fell into my old ways I stopped. I now go by a scale and before I put anything in my mouth I rate 1 to 10 how hungry I am if I'm 7 or above I eat if below I take some water and see how I feel. It really is reprogramming yourself and changing your habits.

You know what that is the best answer to my question just like any normal person you have some hungry days and some normal days I know I have even had days I forgot to eat. It really is about making the best choices and keeping yourself controlled. After I posted this the next day I went right back to my regular routine and can only eat my cup of food if that. So you are absolutely right.

I can't eat reheated meats and bread unless toasted but I typically stay away from it. It does change with the fills I have had 3 fills and until my last one I was able to eat everything with no problems.now I really have to chew my food so it's good to get in the habit of small bites and lots of chewing

Ok thanks so I guess I need a fill thanks so much I was afraid I did something wrong

I thought I was in the green zone but now I'm getting hungry more quicker and not so full I drank beer over the weekend and I'm hoping it didn't do any damage. I have an appt next week should I get a fill?I'm trying to stay controlled but my stomach is growling like crazy

I tried the new egg white mcmuffin at mcdonalds still not hungry that was at 9 this morning 250 calories

tons of recipes

the miracle noodles are no calories and no carbs the shiritaki noodle brand are 20 calories per serving the whole bag is 40cal. I love them they are so versatile if you go to hungrygirl.com she has t of and tells you how to cook them.

I make a spicy peanut sauce that is delicious. 1 tbsp of peanut butter light sodium soy sauce and sirracha sauce to taste put it in micro for 45 seconds and its a great sauce r chicken and shrimp. I use it with shirataki noodles which has no to little calories you can even throw in some veggies
