Bandster Hell Is Winning! Aaghh!

i'm still days out till my 1st fill and this bandster hell is winning! my hunger is back and with a vengeance. i don't even want to get on the scale because i'm scared of seeing how much of the weight i lost i've gained back :( i'm trying so hard to make good choices and to keep to my 1 cup servings but it's not enough!!! the good choices isn't so hard. i know i need to stay away from the bad and that's more mental than anything but the servings is a hunger thing....i think. all i know is that after a 1 cup serving meal i'm still hunger and looking around at everyone else's plate like i could eat theirs too!

ugh, how does one survive this with their sanity and confidence that this will work in the long run??? because right now i'm starting to question everything!

Bandster hell is really hard; I'm there myself and am so hungry! But I'm taking the suggestions in this thread too and I'm going to power through it until I get some restriction. We can do this!:)
