  1. My name is Jose. I am 55, living in the San Francisco Bay area. I am new to the site. I have been reading some of the postings here. they have been very helpful. I had my surgery last Oct, 2011. I My weight started at 242lbs, I am diabetic (not on insulin, just taking a lot of pills). I have been losing weight - am down to 210lbs. I was reading posts here that some have lost 50-100 lbs within a year and others that had band done years ago and only lost a few lbs. I was wondering what makes each one different, no exercise/over exercise, eating right foods/not eating right foods. I am still getting adjustments(fills) every two to four weeks. Dr. states he is still looking for that "sweet spot", Green area. I have made strides with my intake, from wolfing down to chewing slowly and in smaller portions. I do not eat any Breakfast, except a Protein drink. Later in the day, 9am-12noon, I would eat 2 eggs scrambeled. Then every two or three hours Protein Bars. In the evening my wife and I would have a very lite dinner. Except on weekends we would have a light breakfast and nothing until eve, which is also light. I guess I am happy with the way I am losing, but wondering if this is correct or am I doing something wrong. I am going to gym 2 times a week and walking 2-3 miles during lunch at work. Hope I did not bable along here. Just looking for advise and guidance. Who knows, I might be doing everything right.
