I use it everyday, I've been sleeved since January 22nd 2015 MP: chopstikkninja

I called my Dr Monday and they told me with lots the exercising I'm doing I need to ramp it up to 1000 cal. I was at 800. I'm on the. I me for 20 min then lifting weights for another hour. I'll be honest with everyone. It's Easter there's candy around I might go over a bit. Lol.

Peacheeie- my story is just like your. My starting weight was 207 had a revision do to band failure and also diabetes. I have gotten down as far at 185. I started working out the lasts 3 weeks and I'm up to 188. Calories are set To 800 by me. Dr states not to count calories, eat three meals and stay away from carbs. I can eat more then 4 oz, wonder if I stretched my sleeve. Dr and RNP says my weightloss will be slow because of the band.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT A THING!!!. I was a mess the days leading up to my surgery. I couldn't even drive to the hospital that day. Hangin there!!
