  9. I was banded July 28th, and I found the more walking I did, the better. The first day home from the hospital I was weak (to be expected), I was on liquids 2 days prior and while in the hospital I hardly had anything (because of the bloating). Just stick it out, tomorrow you will feel better than today. I also didn't starve myself, after the bloating wore off and I could feel hunger, I ate. I found all sorts of low cal soups. I started off with really thin oatmeal (just a couple of bites was all it took) to take the hunger away. After that, soup, mainly broth based

  12. I usually have 1 snack per day, especially since I have breakfast (protein shake) at 6:30 in the morning. My snack is usually around 10:30 , it all depends. I try not to let my body get the point where I feel hunger, then I tend to be on a mission to make bad choices with my eating

  15. All uneccessary carbs are a no no... I have found some carb counter tortillia's (trader's Joes), they are not the same, but they give you the same satisfaction. If I have carbs, I make sure they are from whole wheat (tortillia's, pasta, etc....) you will find that these things fill you up too fast, and you will naturally steer clear of them. Hope this helps:thumbup:

  22. This sounds like what your first response should have been, not the negative one you chimed in on. You will se once banded (or never banded) when you are TRYING to make life style changes, everyday is not going to be your IDEAL day. We post here to take accountability for what we are eating. Sometimes it helps to see it in writing what you're putting in your body. If most of us did this to begin with, we wouldn't have needed the band.
