hi ash... hows ur wt loss...and ur diet...are you working out a lot... all the best.. -
oh i am so depressed....got the band on 15th march 2011....i was 204 lbs then.i went down to 176, now my wt is again increasing.I am 186 today!!! I live in India am a vegetarian. It is so difficult to follow a high Protein diet here. Why do we need protein to loose wt? I am feeling quite low today. I dont exercise much due to arthritis. but nor do I eat much.I must be having 1000 cals daily.

Hi...I am 58...got the band in 2011. I was 204. Now I am 180. I am happy with the band tho I didnt loose a lot of weight. Thats because I have severe arthritis. All the best!! Keep in touch.

hello all, At last I have found a solution !! I have arthritis and am not very active...so even 1200 cals was too much for me!! I have good restriction so now I have decided to have more liquids,Soups, buttermilk, and veggies and pulses.since I am a vegetarian. eating less is better for me.I have got to do it now!!!
