I gusee I am confused. My doctor says no liquid dairy for the rest of my life. He says it contains too much sugar but the diet plans I have lookedat on this site include dairy. I am finding it difficult to get more than 600 calories a day in. Anyone else have this type of restriction?

yea, had the same kinds of issues. try a shot of cherry milk of magnesia. tastes good, not habit forming and will help get things moving. -
Hello: I was banded on Feb. 19 and am struggling. The pain was more than I anticipated; complicated by pulling an internal stitch. When will the pain from the muscle incision go away? Also, it has been almost 2 weeks and I have not lost a single pound on 600 calories or less a day? Need some encouragement.

I am experiencing the same thing. I was banded in 2/19 and haven't lost any weight. Nce people on this web site have assured me that it is because my body is trying to heal. Hang in there, how can we not lose (eventually)? -

You are probably feeling the gas from inflation of the diaphram during surgery. Walk as much as you can stand and it should help. -
Hi all> I was banded Feb. 19 by Dr. Earl Fox in Richland, WA. He and his staff are great! Only issues since banding have been that I am not pain-free as soon as I wanted to be (wanted to wake up next day without pain) and even consumming less than 600 calories a day, still no weight loss. Doctor and friends tell me to be patient but it is tough.

Hang in there. I was banded just 2 weeks ago and still have some pain. It is better but the one thing I can tell you for sure is DON'T SNEEZE!! Did that Monday and pulled an internal stitch so back to the beginning. Moving helps and having someone to help you in and out of bed for a few days is a must. Oh, and make sure you take the pain meds. I quitthem too early and paid for it.
