I forgot to ask you who is your doctor and where do you go for your fills.. Maybe we can get together and walk, help each other in some way.. let me know

Hi, Thanks for your message. You're right we're not very far from each other. Well, I was banded on 3-25 by Dr. Frank Felts. His office is in the Colony and he is great.. no complaints. He says I should have lost more weight by now but encourages me to keep trying and to stay on track. I told him on my second fill that I was able to swallow two horse looking pills for my back pain and he was kind of like your NP and said you should not be able to swallow those but what he said next was a little different that your NP, he said lets go a few days with the fill he had just given me and call him back in if I didn't feel like I was getting the help I needed from my band or good restriction. When I first began the process my weight was 240lbs. During the pre surgery process, I didn't actually try to loose any weight and only lost 4lbs. So at post-op I was 236lbs and bmi was 40. I am now 209 lbs, have lost a whole lot but haven't gained either.

Thanks so much for the encouragement.. I wish the same for you

Thanks for your help. I went to GNC the health store here and asked the clerk to show me their protein supplements he showem me a powder, forgot the name, but when mixed with juice or milk offers 40grms of protein per shake. unbielievable. The cost was $ 59.00. If I decide to purchas this product, I'll share the name of it

:cool2:Hi fixin2notbfat,

Please tell me how you were able to get in 70 grams per day of protein. I'm finding that my hardiest accomplishment?
