I only have 1 shake and 1 cup of food a day. I have coffee too but sounds like u r trying to take in way too much for a new band. This is the time to heal and drop lbs at the same time. And by 3 wks i was walking 3 miles a day. I was weak and dizzy at first but pushed through it. -

Make sure your not drinking at least 45 min after eating. And if i sit down in front of the tv my tummy starts to feel so full it hurts. If i move around i don't even feel full. So i wait for that painfully signal before i move on. Once i have that signal i can't eat for about 5 hrs
