I wish the heat would help me - without the upchucking. Monday is (hopefully) the last fill for a while. Hungry 2-3 times a day...sometimes not in the morning.KellyOKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08747983407654250219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1786028657534118741.post-62091488055746894002011-07-16T21:18:21.009-04:002011-07-16T21:18:21.009-04:00Congratulations!

I think the band really does impact my hunger. When I eat protein first especially. I just have to remember to separate head vs. physical hunger since it can't do that for me. :)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00346121186616743135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1786028657534118741.post-70665672271605464322011-07-15T12:44:31.811-04:002011-07-15T12:44:31.811-04:00For me, the band keeps me from overeating, but I e...For me, the band keeps me from overeating, but I eat small bits throughout the day and it keeps me from feeling hungry.

Last night I wasn't hungry when it came time for supper. So, I didn't eat!!! What a concept...listened to my band and my pouch and had some watermelon later on when I felt a rumbly in my tumbly!!!<br /><br />Also, I have found that extreme stress makes me tighter...kind of a good thing!?!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17698344618368294860noreply@blogger.com
