is it normal to have basically NO restriction though? this was my concern. i mean, i am not hungry, but i can eat a MUCh larger amount than I expected. idk. i am just a noob trying to figure all this out!!! :smile2:

i am sticking to no sugar added ice cream and MOST of mmy popsicles are. like I said I have MAJOR food addiction and I am proud of myself for doing as well as I have. and i know Ill improve, I just dont want to mess myself up. I am trying to stick to the doctors rules because I KNOW they're there for a reason, but I also know it will take time for me to be able to undo the years and years of bad thinking in reference to food.

Hi. I was banded 12/8/9. I ate a single dorito chewed to creamy apple sauce consistency 2 days post op. I ate some tuna last night, a few bites chewed WELL, pickles (sliced, chewed well), and about 14 doritos tonight.... mind you I am chewing like a pro. I am still supposed to be on the full liquid diet and I am following it, ok.... but i am surviving off potato soup, special k protein shakes, ice cream, and popsicles.... i got the band so i could reduce my portion sizes and train myself SLOWLY to be a healthy eater, yet still enjoy my faves.... i just need some advice. I fear band slippage. I also feel little restriction and can eat ALOT.... so yeah... HELP!!!
