June 15th..........My new life begins!!
Holly,
My biggest advice is to figure out why the band was not a success so that you can succeed with the bypass. I became a grazer and was trying to find foods that would help me stay full so I ate all the time with the band.
With the bypass when my stomach is upset and nothing sounds good I have to be careful not to graze. Sometimes I have to eat even when I don't want what I have. Then atleast I know that I have ate.
Make changes in the very beginning. The band was the practice run, the bypass is the real thing.
I can say that 80% was the band malfunction, the other 20% was me and things I did. I cannot completely blame the band
