Yippee! You are watching your waist appear -- very exciting. I hope I still have one -- will find out soon as I'm getting banded tomorrow. Best wishes to you -- thanks for the inspiration.

Babynae, b4 I recieved my first fill, I too felt hungry between meals. Trust me it goes back to "lap band" normal after a fill. In fact, most of the July Banders (including me) have experienced this. If you have the need to snack, make it a right choice. Ex. Greek yogurt, sugar free jello-o or ices. Your still healing, cut your self some slack. Learning how to eat differently after 40 will take some time. Hang in there.

BklynPenny reacted to B-52 in Pizza!!!
I cannot eat Pizza...it does not go well with my band, and is high risk to getting stuck...so I have dismissed it for years now.
Also, melted globs of cheese is on my "Don't not eat" list also....along with most doughy products....
It's not about nutrition, or calories, etc....it's all about texture....and whether it passes through the band easily or not....

BklynPenny reacted to n2win in JULY 2013 BAND BUDDIES
Wow... 3 fills!
I was banded July 17 and go in Monday (sept 9th) for my 2nd fill.
No saline was added during surgery & 1st fill was 3 cc (11cc band).
I have to constantly measure my portions and feel ZERO help from the band. Hit a plateau and would lose & gain the same 5 pounds. Recently increased walking to 30 mins twice a day (7d/wk), reduced carbs & FINALLY have had a wt loss!
Down: 44 lbs heaviest & 33 lbs post-op
THIS IS NOT THE EASY WAY OUT!!!!
