For me, sometimes the head hunger is really cravings brought on by too much sugar free stuff. I am sadly addicted (I guess an addict has to be addicted to something!!). I am diabetic and with the band and weight loss am a great deal healthier and off almost all medication. The sugar free products make me feel normal, but they also cause me to crave very sweet things. I guess the quote if it tastes good, its bad for you is really true......Lisa

The golden rules of band surgery were very easy initially, and now that I'm 4 years out, have gotten very difficult to maintain. I am feeling the consequences (vomiting, discomfort) and my weight loss is stalled. I have to remember that this band is a full time job, MINE. it will not moderate the small amounts, bites and chewing...social situations make the golden rules hardest. how do the rest of you manage? lisa
