Should have said 'at the moment I could eat a full leg . . . . . . . . . '
I just don't think I'm ever going to feel the physical restriction that many people talk about. Oh well, it's not all bad . . . . . . . |

Yep - gotta say I'm one who'll probably never reach the sweet spot. I rarely feel hungry, but I never feel full either. Have never been at the point where I feel as though I can't take another bite. Any more fill and I just have trouble swallowing saliva, but I could probably eat a full leg of lamb roast with tatas and pumpkin and trimmings! I HAVE to make pretty good food choices if I want the weight to move - AND I find I have to exercise too otherwise I just plateau and get angry.
What I have learned: we all have to find what suits us best. No two people seem to be alike on this journey and it is as much a struggle of the mind as anything else.
Well done folks! Everyone is doing well. Always remember that even though today may not have been your best, tomorrow has no mistakes in it yet and you can make a fresh start. |

| Even when I am losing weight - I am constantly struggling. For the weight to come off I have to be so religious in what I allow myself to eat and dont allow myself to eat. I certainly thought that having the band would make it so much easier, but it hasn't. The band is just another tool to help. |

Newbj
I guess it is pretty normal. After a fill we are a bit sensitive with the adjustment and do naturally take more care I think. You truck along and try to find your sweet spot. I don't get any further fill as I'm prone to reflux, so I have to manage my food. I love to eat, I'm a grazer,,,bad i know...so i tried to have bland staples, like cuppa soup for lunch and rice crackers...tastier things give me an appetite for more...so if i can keep to bland the taste buds don't go crazy for more...hope that makes sense.
take care.

i think we all struggle in our own way newbj...without knowing your history, if you must eat, make better choices...easy to say i know...but we love to feel full.
i have less than 6mls in my band and i don't know what the sweet spot, so each day i have to be conscious of what i put in my gob. |

Hi Renae,
It never ceases to amaze me how the lapband brings out the worst in some non banded people. I'm still annoyed that my close friend told my tennant about it.
It sounds as if your sister went bananas at you because she felt like she'd be caught and knew she'd done the wrong thing. She was being defensive because she didn't know what else to do or say - a fight or flight scenario. I'm sure she will realise eventually how silly she was. My great aunt always says "we can choose our friends, but not our rellies!". Glad to hear you dealt with it in a healthy way, non self-destructive way.
All the best,
Cat |
