Drinking

Crystal, yes, I can eat all foods as well. My band has never physically stopped me eating as long as I pause for a short time before taking an other mouthful. 

I was given the same instructions but this one band rule I never followed.  I always drink during my meals.  I still get full faster.  I still lost 180+ lbs so I didn't eat to excess.  I am just a person the likes to drink...of course now it's water instead of pop
