    I can still eat???

    Good morning all. It's Friday and I'm back from Lubbock Texas. My visit with my doctor went well. I was very honest about what I had been doing. He went ahead and filled my band to 5cc. I feel much more restricted now. Not so restricted that I can't eat anything but restricted enough to fill up with a least a half of cup of food per meal. I am going to start my Protein shakes again to give me the protein I need. The fill was not hard at all. It was over in less than a minute. The hard part was the local anesthetic and that was only for a couple of seconds. Not bad at all. I did manage to lose 23 lbs my first four weeks. I was very happy with that.

    No, I do not think you are being a witch. Your right, I have learned more from you than I did from my doctor. I really have not been eating much sugar, I have been having my usual cup of coffee with very little sugar. I will bump up my Protein. I have been eating a lot of carbs which I will try to cut completely. I was very early on eating a lot of protein and I started experimenting only to find nothing was bothering me. As I found out I was okay with different foods I was eating like a normal person. I get really nervious about this. I'm just afraid this lap band will not work for me. I'm hoping my fill will take this fear away. Thanks again. I'm so greatful for the information you have given.

    I eat because I still feel very hungry. Thank your answering. You sure lay the law down. I'm greatful to you for that. I will definately try to get myself back on track.

    I'm in the same boat. I was banded on 3/16/07. I have lost 23 lbs. so far. Tomorrow will be my first follow up appointment but I'm a little worried because I've been eating four days after my surgery (solid foods). What happens when you stretch your pouch?
