Hey, congrats on losing all of that weight! That's awesome! I also had a VBG (12/26/06), and would love to know how you're dealing with yours. What kinds of things do you eat? How much? I feel so alone...! Take care, and awesome job.  - Krystal 388/342/277/210

i doing ok,  i find i have sneaked in some items that i shouldnt, but overall im hangin in there, the problem i face right now is that i do get full  with mealsbut 1/2 hr later i want to eat again!! and when i snack it seems like i could snack forever. i still throw up if i eat pork sometimes and i had one mouthful of chicken last night over the top and out it  came. portion size varies, it depends on the food. i can eat one slice bread with tuna and im stuffed. but i can eat a huge bowl of salad. i eat about 1/2 chicken breast. i find i get fullest on protein. im getting in 2 litres of water a day im still having problems with constipation but i guess thats the only downside. i now have 4,5 pounds to goal which i hope to attain by my one year anniversay jun 7 2007. you are doing so well with your loss. keep it up and if i can help just let me know!!!! i know there are very few vgbers around,i know one gal who is having a hard time with hers. take care vicky
