Glad to have give up the diet coke was reallllllllllly hard the first few days but decided if I wanted this to work then this was what had to be done.

I used to be the same drank tons of Diet coke. But decided after the ban to give it up as well as beer as did not wnat any complications as wanted this to work right. I think giving up hte Diet Coke adn the caffine was harder thne the Beer. LOL

Hi, I'm just wondering if maybe your band isn't tight enough. Have you talked with your surgeon about this. In a class my husband and I both took so I could learn some of the things he can eat in stages is that every so often he needs to go in and have the lap band adjusted. This should be one of the first things you do to find out why your not getting full I hope this helped.
