Thanks, I'm one of those sitting on the post, but I have see the doctor's nutritionist. In fact, I see her again tomorrow. I'm scared of failure, but desperate too.

I WAS BANDED 3/18/09. IT'S BEEN 3 WEEKS. INITIALLY I LOST 4 LBS WITHIN 1-1/2 WEEKS FOLLOWING SURGERY. NOW I'VE ACTUALLY GAINED. I AM FOLLOWING EVERY RULE AND THEN SOME. I WEIGH OR MEASURE MY FOOD, EAT 3 MEALS A DAY WITH NO MORE THAN 1C EACH AND DO NOT SNACK BETWEEN MEALS. I EITHER WALK OR RIDE MY EXERCISE BIKE ALMOST DAILY. I DRINK 48-64 OZ OF WATER A DAY. I CALLED MY DR AND THE NUTRITIONIST TOLD ME TO CUT BACK TO 1/2C PER MEAL. I'D STARVE. I HAVEN'T HAD A FILL YET. I GO FOR MY FIRST FILL 3/24/09. ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR THIS 62 YR OLD FRUSTRATED LADY? MY GIRLFRIEND HAS LOST MORE WEIGHT ON THE DR PHIL DIET & IT DIDN'T COST HER A FORTUNE.
