Frisky,

My DH was banded 2 years ago this month. Peanuts are his favorite Snacks. About the only thing he can't eat is grilled/broiled steak, but that's probably because he won't eat it unless it's extremely well done. YUCK.

I'm eating soft foods but chewing it until it's pureed. And DH keeps reminding me to chew, chew, and chew some more. Even two years out, that's what he has to do.

I haven't been particularly hungry, but I enjoy eating. All the chewing gets tiresome so I'm not having Portion Control issues. The main issue I'm having is remembering to eat. I should be eating 5 - 6 small meals and I'm usually eating 3 or 4. I keep trying to remember to get a Protein shake in, but it's not easy. Hopefully when I get back to work it'll be easier. I'll try to take scheduled breaks and have Snacks or shakes on hand.

I amsupose to be on a very strict diet, but have been hungry. I ahve talked to several people who had surgery by the same doctor as mine. Well, I have not stuck tot he strick diet. I should be in teh soft food stage, well last night I cooked Spare ribs and green Beans. I only had one small piec of rib and about a 1/4 cup of green Beans but. I am no were near the diet the doctor spelled out.

I just take very small bites and chew. My husband took me out to dinner Saturday to an Italian rest. I knew the waitress and told her about the band. i got chicken so she made sure I got a small piece and my diet says absolutely no salad. well I ahd a few bites of my husbands and again I chewed and chewed. Now the only thing I stayed away from is the bread (Which is killing me) I love bread, it's my downfall. but I tried a piece christmas eve and it got stuck so no more bread for me.

Anyway I've ranted on long enough. I really think it is up to the individual. The only problem i am having is during the 2 week liquid phase prior to surgery I lost 15lbs. I think I have gained a few of those back. :phanvan

Good luck everyone.

Ellisa,

Hi! I'm suppose to be eating only 1-2ozs per meal on a full liquid diet, 5 times a day. I am trying to stick to it but I am going crazy. I have eaten 4-6ozs of Soup. Egg Drop and I feel like I'm "cheating". I am so tired of broth, juices, Protein shakes....(thank goodness the chocolate Unjury is pretty good) I took a small bite of cheese off my kids pizza. It just smelled too good. Tomorrow I'm able to start "soft and moist". It is going to seem like prime rib!

Did someone say Prime Rib? Spare Ribs? My family is in the living room watching a program on BBQ, and I would jump on somebody for some meat!!! I have had fish and chicken, but no beef. I am ready for my fill so maybe I won't be so hungry and feel all these cravings.

I know exactly what you mean. My family went out for Oriental and I'm sitting here with my Green Pea Soup...well, at least it's not chicken broth...

I am new just joined LBT yesterday, I was banded on 12/20 in Michiagan! I am struggling with knowing when I am full. I don't eat nearly as much as I used to, but have to force myself to stop. I also, fell like I could eat anything, even though I just started pureed today. Not that I want to eat a steak, I just feel like I could.

I haven't started exercising yet, I want and need to, but I am scared. It's too stinkin' cold out to walk outside, and I am too chicken to go to the gym, even though I have been paying my $19 a month since 1999, a lot of good that has done me! I am very self-conscious about my weight, and that's why I am staying away from the gym - make sense, right?!? I know it's silly, but it is what it is. I ordered a treadmill on 12/31 - big new year's eve partier I am! It won't be here for 10-14 days! Any suggestions what I should do until then?

Ribs that's what i would of had for new years.

been doing well on on foods eat 3 times 1 to 2 oz's .

told not to snack.< /p>

one thing that seems to make me hungry is drinking things that taste

sweet even if it's sugarless.

cristal lite after a hour or two makes me feel like sharkes on a

blood frenzy (which was life before banded).

most late night craving are going away .

seems to have goten better after hitting bottom.

craving where so bad 29Th, went to bed and dreamed about food.< /p>

In my dream remember being at my mothers house and

sneaking a piece of home made candy off a cookie sheet,

both mother and wife caught me and were really let into me

and could see the sadness in there faces .

this dream seemed so real even the food smelled real.

What ideas and feelings came from this dream , still stick with me.

the surgery and going though all this,

getting suport of family ,wife doing my chores because can't do much bending or lifting and her trying to make that little food tase its best.

Having this once in alife time to reset the bad choices . if others are willing

to help me so much then I better be willing to help myself.

Food always was my best friend , now i know food was killing

me .

Your best friend does not kill you

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
