I'm feeling awful today. I was banded on November 12, 2014. I've done well, but after having some physical issues a couple weeks ago, not related to the band, it left me tired and hungry. Now, I seem to always seem to eat more without feeling overly full. I'm out of control today, like I have no band. Shouldn't I feel sick or something from eating more than I supposed to. I'm feeling so sad and alone today. No one seems to understand!

Butterly24, hang in there. I think a lot of us have been there also. I know I have. My suggestion would be to try drinking more Water before you eat. Eat items with more Protein and/or Fiber. Eat really slow too.

Also, a favorite Breakfast of mine is 1/2 a cup of plain low-fat yogurt, 1 spoonful (about a tablespoon) of orange marmalade for a little sweetness, and a 1/2 to 1 full serving of a high fiber Cereal. Sometimes I add a few little mini chocolate chips or shopped walnuts and sometimes I do a different cereal, like one with flakes, almonds, 'yogurt' clusters, cranberries/raisins. I know when I have used the all-bran fiber buds, I only use about a 1/2 serving, because it would be too filling on a full serving. Anyhow, it's been something that I enjoyed eating and you can change up the ingredients. Anyhow, I told you this, because when I eat this breakfast especially, I have to eat slow. But the best part is it's fairly low cal and I usually work it off in the gym.

Hang in there. Don't give up.

Thank you so much for encouraging me and the yogurt suggestion! I will give that a try! ????
