Is is possible for you never to feel full? and always be hungry? i have been banded for 2 years and i am still hungry all the time.. I drink my water as supposed... I dont drink during meals.. I had lost almost 100 lbs by pure hardwork and calorie watching... I have slowly gained 70lbs back.. I have an appt this thursday at my band doc... I have tightness in my band... I eat slow and feel pressure but It seems to past quickly..

I tried the ranch dressing.. it was the nastiest thing ever!

recently i have been having stuck problems everyday. but not where i need to throw up.. its not my band its me.. I eat so quick and dont control my bites..

I agree

I love running! and now the stairclimber

So I was banded almost 2 years ago (March 18, 2010). At the time i already knew i had sleep apnea.. Fast forward, First year i went from 302lb to 218lbs and felt like I was sleeping better, stopped using my BiPAP.. Here recently since gaining about 40lbs back I have been feeling very tired again so My PCP asked me to get another sleep study... I FAILED Badly, I had twice as much apnea periods.. Feel like a big failure... I have made great stride in the last 2 years, Off my BP meds, no pre-diabetic, running 3-4 times a week, ran a half marathon, training for another one now... Trying not to be depressed but its hard.. I dont want to wear a mask to sleep every night.. LC

They ARE HEAVENLY! (the PB cherrios)

I found it boring as heck and not the best tasting... Plus i am addicted to Multigrain cheerios and the new Multi-grain Peanut butter cheerios

I just set a routine and stick to it... I told myself i had to run 4 miles today and I didnt want to.. I made myself go to the gym.. the first 2 miles sucked.. but The last 2 went great.. I left with a great "high" I seem to workout better when i dont want to be there...

Hiya fellow Pa'er..I was banded in march of 2010..Struggling but Glad i got it done

I am a bodybugg user and love it! Its nice to know how many calories i have burnt.. Like to track my food in the program too.. I dont find it big or bulky at all.. I forgot alot that i am wearing it and almost got in the shower today with it on.. heheh

I took the season off cause I had my band placed middle season My doc told me 6 months.. but i think i would have been ok like 2 month post op.. I wont Practice if i was you.. Gym and football are two different things.. Be careful

Been there too.. I am tired all the time... Got blood work everything looked good other then iron. Been taking iron.. Isnt helping... PCP wants another sleep study done..

Awesome! you can do it!

sounds like a plan. Best of luck
