That's very true ! May e I just need to adjust my way of thinking Sent from my SM-N900V using the BariatricPal App

I had my surgery 10/2013 and have been very successful. I'm down 102 lbs and 17 lbs from my goal (happy dance) I miss meat so bad. If I eat meat it feels like I have swallowed a brick. I can eat some ground beef and fish but just a little. I honestly think I don't have a green zone ! I go from yellow to red ! If I stay closer to yellow I gain weight. So I have to stay closer to red in order to lose. All these summer cookouts are gearing up and wish I could eat some ribs or grilled chicken ! Sometimes I wish I didn't have to eat at all because I can't eat the foods I want to. Its hard to get your Protein in when you can't eat much meat Sent from my SM-N900V using the BariatricPal App

chicken is my worst enemy ! I almost gag at the thought of it...its just harder than I expected and 2yrs later I still haven't adjusted...which 9 of those months I was preggo and my band was loose then. Seems like getting it tightened after birth has been so different than before. I will try drinking Water and see if that helps ! Thanks Sent from my SM-N900V using the BariatricPal App

Yes I have...sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt...my band is so finicky...most of the time it doesnt...but if I get any more Fluid taken out I'm hungry and gain...its just seems to be a never ending battle. I have a 10cc band and only have 4.3 in it now. Sent from my SM-N900V using the BariatricPal App
