SInce my surgery, I have had three fills. but the weight is comming off slowly. I have been exercising. I am glad i had the surgery. Can anyone give me pointers as what to eat between meals if i get hungry?? (my stomach begins to make grumbling noises) How soon can I have rice , bread, pasta? I need advice...HELP!!!!!

Cheese sticks, 2% Fage greek yogurt, sardines, tuna etc... During a snack you should eat a protein as it will help curb your appetite longer. I ate brown rice 1 month after surgery. I'm not sure what your Dr. recommends though. Follow your Dr's. instructions. Good luck to you. By the way, 12/11 is me and my husbands anniversary.

I was banded on 12/22/08 at 276lbs. I am now 246.6 lbs this morning. I have had two fills with a total of 2.6cc in a 10cc band. I eat colby-jack cheese sticks or sugar free pudding for my snacks. They have some protein and hold me over until meal time. I have had no problems with rice - even sticky rice - but I can not handle bread at all. Best of luck.
