I have been getting told that I am not getting enough protein so thank you for sharing this. Hopefully this will help a lot.

Hello everyone, well it seems like you all are doing wonderful! I am having some issues, I am at 10cc's and can feel the restrictions but I do think I am going to go in tomorrow for another fill because well I'm still getting hungry sooner then wanted. I am working on the exercising but what did you all start with? I am walking at night a mile at a time but it doesn't seem to be doing much good. Also was it hard for anyone of you to get it through your husbands or wife's head that you can't have certain things or not supposed to? I am down 20 pounds.

I will be finished with my second week post op tomorrow and I weighed myself only to find out that I have gain 3 pounds back from the 11 that I lost the first week. Does anyone have any advice? I am following the cup rule for food and am trying to make sure the food is healthy and walking 45 minutes a day. I just do not understand why I am gaining......

Thank you for the wonderful advice! I thought that it was really low.

I am only eating 600 because I feel so full afterwards. I'm going to read my information book tonight and see us it tells me in there what they suggest. But my doctor told me on Tuesday on my post op call that my meals should fit into one cup...

I'm drinking my 2 Protein Shakes (Kirkland brand) and each day is about 600 calories. Tue rest of liquids is Water.

I was banded on Thursday February 28th. I was doing good with the liquids but I have twin 2 year old girls so of corse my husband has to cook them foods. The smell is getting me down and they are irritable because mommy is no longer a jungle gym. My husband has been a rock through this whole thing holding the girls together and he is also hoping to lose weight by following our diet. So far I am sore but I do not want to take anymore liquid Vicodin because of some of the side effects. What are some things that are keeping you newly banded ladies am gentlemen full?
