Coffee...My Saviour...

Well it has been an interesting week since the fill.....My feelings of being full come and go... and as I have read so many times on these bloggs, the band is very unpredictable indeed.......Now here is the thing, I have been studying my feelings of satisfaction, and FOOD is not the thing that is filling me up.... NO really it's not........Coffee is my current saviour.......I am eating breakfast , lunch and dinner and I get a mild feeling of being full , BUT once I wash it down with a large coffee ( no milk of course ) I become really FULL....now I know this goes against one of the 10 rules of banding.....no liquid for at least half an hour.....but it is working for me.....I'm down about 2 KG this week ( not official until Tuesday)...

So does any one else feel this way ????

  1. That's weird, but these bands are too. I go through periods when my morning coffee fills me up until lunch and sometimes I have to eat breakfast at 7AM. Who knows? I'm glad you're feeling some restriction though.

  3. Isn't it funny how the band works just a little differently for everyone? I think it's great if that's what works for you :-)

    I do the opposite. I have a coffee just before breakfast and it helps keep me full until lunch. Gotta love a cuppa :-)

  4. I guess whatever works is good-and your weightloss is great. I wouldn't change a thing until I had to. I'm having a problem drinking after eating right now and end up waiting an hour or two before I can drink. Although I did have some wine with dinner.

    Glad the fill is working for you right now and hope it continues.

  5. I don't have a band, but coffee fills me up too. Congrats on your weight loss.
