  1. Is it that I've stretched my pouch??? I've had several fills, I get full sometimes, but I can sit down and eat a whole plate of food sometimes. I need to get control...not sure where to start:cry help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. Hello Micki, Your messages sounds like I wrote it. I had the same worry as you. I was never satisfied unless I stuffed mysefl. I was obsessed with food. It controled me. All is different with the band. You get full on the little amount you eat. You eat can eat every three hours. I have the control now. The band is wonderful. Trust what I say. Some on the site told me this and it was true for them also. Be sure to follow the rules your surgeon and nutritionist set for you. Good Luck...congrats...your almost there! Ann Bo banded one month ago...losing a pound every few days
