What is your food weakness?...

... and has the band helped you to overcome those cravings?

My food weakness is the potato, in all of its various forms. More specifically though, chips. Potato chips have been my favorite food, for as long as I can remember.

In the past, I've been known to sit down with a large bag and finish it off in less than 30 minutes. I'd have still been hungry afterwards.

I'm amazed by how long a bag of chips can last in my house now lol. The bag currently sitting in the cupboard, has been here nearly 3 weeks and is still half full.

After picking my daughter up from school one day, I was having a huge craving for chips, so we stopped at 7-11. Got two tiny bags. Less than halfway through my bag, I was completely stuffed.

I'm loving this band :) heh

NOPE!

It has to be ICE CREAM!!! But I have solved that problem Klondike bars, SLIM.A.BEAR

I love ice cream:laugh and i love chocolate and hot wing but i have been doing real good .i treat my self to ice cream once every two weeks.and chocolate once a month:cry and hot wing i dont eat any more :banana :banana so all in all i think iam doing well.and i also love nut.

Bread...did I say bread and oh yeah bread. I like bread, I miss bread, I have had a 1/2 a bun on occasion but I'm scared so it's just not worth it. I have not had a fill yet and I don't want one yet. I have some restriction, take this weekend for instance. I was in the mood to eat but food was not going down to well so I kep cooking and pinching. I fixed my pot of soup Saturday morning but that didn't want to go down easily. So I had this great idea to fix these low carb muffins. They smelled great, it tasted great until I had 1/4 left to eat. Stuck, that delicious, dry, low carb muffin sat in my chest. I was pissed and if finally went down. So of course later I baked some chicken wings, I ate two and there was that uncomfortable feeling. I'm sure I was just trying to eat them to fast. LOL

Have you guys tried(can we have?) dryers carb free ice cream ...it is pretty good! bread and potatos are my weakness. I was banded on the 17th of aug (12 days ago) I am sooooo tired of liquids. yesterday i had crackers with garlic cheese spread....only 4 small ones but they were GREAT... also have had a couple of prawns with tartar .....i see my doc tomorrow.....
