I know that because I don't have a fill yet that this is probably the reason why......but I can eat pretty much anything and a lot! just about as much as i was before I got banded 3 weeks ago! I don't even feel like there is a band in there!

When you get a fill, does that help you to feel full with less food? I know that is a stupid question, I mean, I know that is what it is supposed to do right, but I didn't expect to be able to eat this much! Right now I am eating a lot! and with no problems, bread, chicken, pretty much anything!! It's not hard for me to eat over 1500 calories. Did anyone else go back to eating what they did after they got banded (without a fill)? And did it change once you got a fill or two?

Hi there...I was banded on May 10 and was told to follow a stricked diet, which right now i'm on a liquid diet till next monday and then i will be able to have soft foods. I REALLLY believe that if you eat your Protein FIRST, you will stay full longer and will help you from eating seconds. Try to incorporate a Protein shake also if you havent already. If that doesn't work, then try contacting your doctor to see if your ready for your first fill. Good luck to you in all your success!!
