    For me, the band has never made me not feel hungry. I know that's what most people expect from the band, but more and more I am learning that (unfortunately) hunger and cravings are always going to be an issue. I feel off the wagon for quite awhile and didn't have any fills. Now I'm finally up to 5ccs and my eating habits are beginning to improve. I can no longer eat quickly or mindlessly, but the hunger is still there and may always be. =(

    I'm having the same thing. I'm thinking it's the head hunger and cravings. When I craved salty. I got some ramen and just made the broth (the super salty packet) and it worked. Miso Soup would probably work too. As far the sweet I am happy with the Jello dark chocolate sugar free mousse.

    Hope it helps
