Frustrated
First potato are starch, protein then veg then carb. 1/2 cup is the rite amount. you should not be hungry after that. use trick small plates, and chew chew chew . look up the you-tube video dr Obrien 8 golden rules , it explains the best way to do the lap-band

Stuck stuck stuck
you might be eating too fast or not hewing enough.. remember 1 min between bites.. I had a fill 1 month ago and I tried pot roast last night, oh my god it got stuck on second bite, I eat slow and still, put that in memory bank no pot-roast for me ... good luck if that does not work, call you doctors. don't panic it makes it worse.

Replay started new again and succeeding!
Want everyone to know you can restart again if you have a fall. My band was put in 4 years ago and after loosing 80 I put 50 back on slowly. Found new doctor who taught me how this thing works, I am green and loving it. I am as excited as the day I first started. I have list 28 pounds in 28 days. Feel great and new, and not hungry. This site has also kept me motivated, thank you all and we will all be in the green together..

I have to start my thinking about food all over again. wish me luck. started at350 lost 80 kept most off til married 2 years ago gained back a lot.330 starting again...
