Can you request a low sodium diet? This would help with the increase in Fluid. I am going a cruise at the end of the year, and if I can I will request a low sodium diet.

It's been seven months and only 35 pounds gone. My doctor tells me it will take 3 years to loose the weight. I started at 296 down to 263 today. I have a 14 cc band with at least 8cc in it. The doctors office wont tell me how much exactly. Is there any body out there that started slow and reached goal? I want to loose another 100 pounds. advise needed!

Thank you all, I have increased my Water intake and have noticed an increased weight loss. I use my fitness pall to track my nutritional intake and use a fit bit to track steps. I have not been very faithful about walking, and my carbs are on the high end I think. I eat up to about 140- 200 grams of carbs, between 60-90 Protein and between 50-90 grams of Fat. My sodium levels have been high, which contribute to a slow weight loss. I eat between close to 1500 calories up to 1700.
