This is my first time on this site. I was banded on May 2009. My starting weight was 289. I've see a nutritionists every month to help me with my choice of foods. After the first 6 month, I always seemed to be hungry all the time. The nutrititionist told me to see the surgeon and ask for an adjustment. The surgeon refused to give it to me. He said that I'm losing without an adjustment. At that time, I was about 250. I'm currently down to 208. I pleaded with the doctor to give me an adjustment because i feel like the only reason i was losing weight was because i lived in the gym. EVERYDAY. He finally gave it to me on Thursday, 3/4/2010. It is KILLING me. I cannot eat anything. He gave me 4ccs. Maybe it was too much, I don't know. In the morning, i usually eat egg whites and spinach with swiss on a wrap with pink grapefruit. The wrap bread and the cheese kills me so i cannot eat it anymore. Just the eggwhites and spinach. That will hold me for 2 hours then I'm hungry again. For lunch i had broccoli and grilled salmon. The salmon killed me so i stopped eating it. Any suggestions because right now, i'm starving. I just had a Fiber one bar but that will not hold me for long. I need help. Will i get used to it? Right now, I'm too scared to eat anything. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. :tt2::sad::tt1:
