Ok so for the first 3-4 weeks after banding I hardly ate out at all. However, this week end I ate out 3 times I think it was! Not that I had bad things, but I am eating too much when I go out! I'm thinking "oh I can have one more bite" and I never get sick but I do get to the point of being pretty uncomfortable. Man o man its so hard for me to visualize 4oz of food when I see just so much food and I want to eat it all! If you have come up with any helpful hints please let me know because I really need to hear them! My husband and I did decide though that we were going to limit ourselves to one dinner out a weekend, not only because we need to eat better but to put extra cash in our pockets as well!Oh and I wanted to mention to everyone, that my friend Kristen who also has a lap band blog just got engaged!!!!! I am so happy for her! Congrats Kristen! Take a peek at her blog guys she just posted about it!
Thanks for reading! Love yas!

Oh I hear you on the 'one more bite thing.' I don't get sick either but boy, do I feel uncomfortable!! It's the worst feeling in the world (I have since stopped doing it.. slow learner anyone? lol)
My doc said to measure, measure, measure. I've been doing that this week. Measure out the cup of food and soon enough you get to judge just how much you should have on your plate as opposed to what we want to have on our plate (and eating it all!)
Hope this helps.
Lady;
You have one of the most beautiful, mezmorizing set of eyes I've ever seen! Can you imagine how they are going to look when the extra weight is gone from your face?

Well I think that is the best compliment I have received in the longest time and I am flattered. Thank you so much!
I am totally struggling with the one more bite issue. =( I also get uncomfy after I do it, but it still doesnt stop me from doing it again....I need to kick myself in the ass! And also stop snacking. I cant go from lunch to dinner without a snack and lately its been four PB&J sandwich crackers. But I still am madly in love with my band. I just want it to be filled up so it can do its thang!
