I think that if I can do that it will certainly help. My doctor told me after 30 minutes no more food. I guess thats my problem. I have always eaten slowly but now I am really taking my time and enjoying it all. The problem is I'm eating it all. I'm going to make a consious effort after 30 minutes to push it away, pack it up or throw it out. Tomorrows a new day. Thanks for all the replys. I haven't posted anything in the past and it's been over 2 years. Who knows this might just be the thing I need. THANKS

Thanks for replying. I was doing pretty good in the first few months. I don't know I blame myself for eating the wrong things. I just wish I wasn't able to eat as much as I can. I'm not dieting because I know that won't work. I start out trying to eat right but I guess I'm able to each too much of even the right thing. Just wish the after 10 or 15 minutes after the first bite the band would hold tight and not let everything go down. It's like it stops the food and then it loosens and this happens at every meal so I know the band is there just wondering if this happens to anyone else.

I am having the same problem. Had surgery -06 and I have lost 5 lbs. I am able to eat pretty much anything. I have had 3 small fills. When I first start eating I can't seem to get it down for 10 or 15 minutes but after that it's all I can eat. I know a big part of my problem is I am eating some of the wrong foods so I blame myself. Until just recently I couldn't eat any bread at all and now I can eat whole sandwiches. I know the band is there because I can feel it stop food right away but then it seems to open up and l can eat a complete full meal. I am very frustrated. Is anyone else having this problem.
