Hi Valerie, I would love to share my drs guidelines with you. Dr. Chang is really strict about 3 meals a day...and that's it. No

snacking at all. He is also just as strict about not skipping any meals.

My original surgeon told me I absolutely could not eat breads and pasta...at all. And I have not since day one. I believe that to have been my biggest help to losing. I have this "Healthy Fear" of messing up my band and losing it that scares me. I know I will gain the weight back if I have to lose my band, so I am probably a bit fanatical about doing what my drs say.

Walking...on a treadmill or outside, doesn't matter, but walking is the best thing. Of course you have to keep a good pace, not a leisure stroll.

I am going to try to attach something here, but not sure if it will work.

Oh yeah it worked, I hope you can read it. Anyway, give this a try.

Let me know how you do.

Later, Joanie
