:hungry: Isn't it fun saving money on food? Since lap banders can't eat much we can spend more money on new clothes.

Is anyone having a hard time going out to eat? I have found that if you tell the waitress you have had lap band surgery abd aren't able to eat much they will allow you to order off the childrens menu.

This is what I ate yesterday:

Breakfast-2 hardboiled eggs

Lunch-2 cheese sticks dipped in ranch

Snack-2 more cheese sticks dipped in ranch

Dinner- 3 meatballs

Dessert- Jello and cool whip

Here's my day. I just got my fourth fill, and I'm having a bit of a hard time adjusting.

Breakfast: 1/4 cup cottage cheese

Lunch: Trader Joes Indian Fare Bengali Lentils (1/2 package)

Dinner: Boca Burger with one slice cheese. 1/4 cup frozen blueberries.

Does this seem ok?

I eat what I want about 25% of what I used to eat. I enjoy food way too much to deny myself of all pleasures. My body hasn't told me what it won't digest yet. Oh..and I don't exercise either. I figure right when my body tells me what I can't eat, I'll probably have time to exercise then. *grin*
