Your welcome. One thing I tell my co-worker when she says she's eating more than 4 oz. I tell her to enjoy her food now. It's ok to have up to a cup a meal. My doctor said it wouldn't strech my stomach. And the reason I tell her this is because, with the 7.7 cc fill, it's hard to enjoy my meals. I feel the restriction from the very 1st bite (pea size bites). Also, it's ok for your calerie intake to be about 1200 a day. Good luck : ) K.I.T. - Would like to hear how your doing.

Thank you for your comment. I've been sticking to doctor's orders. I exercised my @ss off for 2 1/2 months straight. Right now I'm only walking a mile everyday, It's too hot. My eating habits have change tremendously. I started with 2-4 oz, then 1/2 cup and then 1 cup. I have a 10 cc band and right now I have 7.7 cc's. I have plenty restriction, so I"m pretty much back on 4 oz, if I'm lucky 3/4 cup every meal. Drink lots of water and substitute meals with protein drinks and vitamins. Tips: Be patient, the weight will come off, I promise. Our bodies all react differently to the surgery, some loose quicker than others, but in the end we have great results (if we use our tool correctly). I have a co-worker who was banded about a month ago, different doctor than mine, and has followed everything, but is also very frustrated because she's only lost 17lbs. She's beginning to notice the inches come off. Hang in there, the weight will come off.

Hi dear, you have accomplished so much in so little time. can you tell me how and if you have any tips for me to follow, I just got banded on August 11, but have not lost that much, I am stuck in 204 and wish to speed up my weight lost. You look great, and in such a short period, you have lost more than 60 pounds. Please reply.

Hello! I had my 1st fill on 4/27. My question is: How long does the soreness around the port area last after fills? It's true what I've read, you don't really feel a whole lot of restriction with your 1st fill. But I'm satisfied with my results :thumbup:

anyone else have menstrual cycle probs after?
Munequita replied to thejasgirl70's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was a week late. Body changes, I agree. I'm cramping, don't know what's normal and what's not normal anymore. First recovery was from the gas pains and back aches, then bad constipation and blockage, right after that my menstrual came. I hope this discomfort goes away soon. -
What about mixed drinks?

How long after surgery does one have to wait before having a beer?:smile:
