sorry to hear that vicki. but everyone is different. personally, for me i have to limit my carbs or i would gain. i eat very little bread, not alot of fruit and the bad carbs are def a nono for me -

i didnt either at first. just follow the rules...eat slow, that is so important and stop eating when you feel full. eat your protein first then your veggies and you will learn when to stop. it is also very important to get a handle on the head hunger...everyone can tell you that -

val replied to loraine's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
you will learn to see the signs when you are full. i used to hiccup or burp and that was my tummy telling me it was full...lol -

that sounds like where the port is. as you lose weight you will be able to feel the port. that can be sore for awhile, esp when lying down -

val replied to loraine's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
yes it does...i think it does with the band because of the port. its sore but not exactly pain -

you can try tuna, egg salad, cottage cheese...things like that to start, then go more solid as you tolerate. you do want to stay aay from the high carb foods, your weight loss will be better
