Hi,

I am really new to all of this, I had lap band on May 9, 2008 and I am having trouble with my appetite. I think it is hard to get all the protein in the they say you should have on a daily basis. I can not eat any beef because the thought of it just makes me sick. I eat fish about all the time and sometimes I get chicken in my diet, but I seem to choke on chicken.:w00t: Is this common to lose your appetite for the things that were once a part of your diet?

I have a very hard time with chicken, it seems to always get stuck. I eat cheese to get in my protein

I started a protein drink three days ago and I purchased my protein powder and a muscle store the guy said they sell alot of protein powder to lap banders. protein powder water frozen fruit its real good

Hi,

My experience as a bandster has been that I lose my appetite for anything that gets stuck.

I'm pretty lucky.

I can eat beef, chicken, etc.

But one time...I got stuck on very chewy bbq chicken wings...

and I will never try to eat those again!
