I drink Boost for breakfast and sometimes lunch. I try to tolerate small amounts of food WELL chewed for dinner. I had my lb done Aug 2006. i have lost all my weight (90) lbs, but still have problems eating much, and almost never have to have a fill. i only have 1 cc in mine now, and still i am never hungry. i DO have TERRIBLE acid reflux. anyone else having that problem?

It sounds like your too tight (acid reflux). Personally I don't like to drink my meals & my Dr is not a fan either - that and soft foods (all except day or 2 after a fill). I gauge my restriction by how much I can eat solid protein. Do I have to slow down & chew chew chew vs being able to eat fast? - Does it keep me satisfied, so not to snack between meals?

I would suggest reaching out to your Dr to check your band & reflux issues - From all that I've read, you don't want to be as tight as you describe. Hope it all goes well~~
