Normal To Eat More Than 4Oz?

[honk 780]

Original poster, for Breakfast I have a serving of Greek Yogurt (Chobani fruited) with the following add ins: 1/2 scoop vanilla whey isolate Protein powder, flavorless benefiber, Splendra, some walnuts, 1/3 cup high Protein Kashi Go Lean.

about 300-350 cal. but about 30 g of protein.

As mentioned by previous posters you need to up your protein and lower the carb intake.

Since the Lapband I have not once been able to eat Pasta, let alone bread rice or tortilla!

You are eating too many calories a day. Your doctor should have set how much you should be eating and it should be around 1000. It is going to take time to stop thinking about food and it may never go away. I try to stay busy, drink 0 calorie drinks and when food comes in my head I ask myself " I'm I hungry?" and if it is no than I don't eat. If you find yourself eating more because you are hungry more it is time for a fill. Don't wait for you to reach a goal weight, you can cause your band to slip. I don't understand the one lady that is waiting to reach her goal before she gets a fill. That is not the intent of the band but, if she and her doctor are in agreement then i guess that's all that matters.

I think it really depends for everyone, my doctor told me that i was not eating enough, i should eat 1800 calories per day because i do sport an hour a day. I'm getting my second fill next week, and i lost 3 lbs last week (finaly!!!) so i'm confident now!

I am really active too and I got pregnant after I had my surgery and my doctor has never told me to go over 1200 calories a day. I eat 125g of Protein or more a day because I am so active. I'm not saying that my way is the right way, I'm just a little puzzled by why you are eating so much calories after having this surgery? I think it is wonderful that you have lost weight and congrats to you.
