Kittycat Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Okay, I know this is what we demand as a bandster, but wholly cow, I can barely eat a thing. I was able to eat an english muffin w/sausage this morning, about 5 bites of chicken at lunch and 1 chicken fajita for dinner and wow, major restriction. I chew chew chew until it's liquid, I am so afraid of another PBing episode, so far so good. I need to retrain my brain again to stop when I'm full....that is the hardest part of all this...a plate of food, take a few bites and want more, but can't. Cross your fingers it stays for awhile and I can get back to being a loser!! Have a great weekend everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momonamission Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 I know the feelilng. I am glad if I get more than just a couple of bites. No bread for me though. I do miss that. I have been doing yougurt and protien shakes to make sure I get what I need. Maybe that will help you. I was getting headaches until I did that. Good luck.

I know how frustrating it can be (without restriction), and I couldn't be happier for you. I agree that the challenge will now be for you to get all your vitamins/minerals in. You may get very familiar with your blender, again! Anyway, have a great weekend, Skinny Kittycat!!!! - (1jmk) Janet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean Kathy, mine took a month to kick in and boy is it keeping me on my toes!! Yesterday was my birthday and Hubby & I were going to go out for dinner, but I was afraid to! I ended up eating light at home. I'd be mortified if I'd have a PB episode at a resturante.... I'm not a quiet girl when it comes to PBing :bad: I'm trying to do the retraining thing myself.... I'm slow at it though!! Good luck Kathy and I LOVE YOUR CUT & COLOR!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denisem Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 I'm so glad you got a good 2nd fill! I'm having my 2nd fill next Friday! I'll be referring back to your posts to see what you did to get through it. I got 2 cc's the first time and I'm hoping for the same again. Not too much restriction the first fill, but I had absolutely nothing in my band before that. Good luck and thanks for posting such imformative things for us all!

elainad Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Do we need to go on full liquids again a few days before the first fill in addition to the days folowing the fill? I get my first fill Sept 16th...and I was wondering about that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get my first fill Sept 16th...and I was wondering about that... Hi Elainad, my doctor told me not to change my eating habits before the fill, but afterwards I am on three days of mushy/soft foods. Good Luck with your fill!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denise Thanks Denise, portion control is what I use inbetween fills. I have developed willpower all of a sudden with the band, I guess the pricetag might have something to do with it! LOL!! I have gone through too much to fail this time. Second fill is working like a charm so far!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
