I just can't eat that many calories. i am full from breakfast which is 2 eggs and cheese, lunch i cant eat until 3 then i am not wanting dinner cause i am just full. what do you guys do?

Maybe you need a slight unfill? Have you tried doing liquids for breakfast? My surgeon doesn't want me doing shakes, but maybe that would allow you to eat more for lunch and dinner.

Your weight will begin to move again. How do anorexics become 60lbs if their bodies are in starvation mode they cant if you dont eat eventually you will lose weight your body will get the signal and start burning your own fat. It can only preserve it for so long then it has to use it. If you eat less calories you will lose weight that whole got to eat 1700 calories to lose weight is bull. If your body goes long enough with less calories it has no other option than to burn the fat.

@ sanction. Yeah you can lose weight but anorexic also lose a ton of lean body mass as well and that is why they look like skeletons. I know I don't want to not have any muscle (not buff, but have a little definition) so I eat more than the average bandster. I'd rather lose slower and not look awful down the road.

I do a Protein Shake for breakfast, 4 oz fish and 2-3 oz. of veggie for both lunch and dinner. I do eat breakfast at 7 AM, lunch about 1:00 and dinner at about 7 PM. I am never starving for a meal, but I do feel a bit hungry when those times come. You have to be careful to get enough Protein in so that you don't have muscle loss. You don't mention the meal times or what you are having for lunch....possibly spreading it out for longer periods may help. If you add up your protein and you are coming up short maybe consider switching out the eggs for a shake and doing the eggs and cheese for dinner....or a shake for dinner.

So far I haven't had a fill, but if you have had one maybe speak with your doctor to get an unfill.

I also have a liquid breakfast, which allows me to have my two meals (lunch and dinner) later in the day, when the band feels a little looser.
