    Once you start your fills the hunger will subside. Stick with the diet recommended by the nutritionist! I eat my protein first for all three meals, and I find that the protein was the key for my losing weight and staying on course. Congrats on your success and willpower!

    congratulations! I had a rough start and questioned my banding...but I'm super happy with it now. My prize? Health! A less big picture prize? A cruise (which will require a new bathing suit!)

    Well, had my surgery today! I am feeling remarkably well, and I'm so surprised & thankful. My prize - will be NO MORE GRANNY PANTIES :) My aunt, she sent me a cute note today - she said she's going to be the one to take me to Victoria's Secret - I can't wait. Then the other prize, health, it will reduce my risk for a cancer recurrence, and overall - self confidence boost! :) Hugs to all!
