  1. I am new to these boards but am extremely frustrated. I was banded in Feb 2005 and my lap band journey can be described as frustrating. I have always struggled to lose any weight with the band and finally lost 60lbs and then had reflux and heartburn. I had a slip in September of 2009 and so I have started over after gaining 30lbs back. I am just getting tight again and have no problems! Yay! I have trained for 3 marathons with the band and never lost a pound! I consider myself active. I started exercising Jan 1st 6 days a week for 45 min and then 30 min of circuit training 3 x week. I am definitely doing my part in the exercise realm. I have lost 6lbs since Jan and now I have stopped. I eat between 1400-1600 calories a day which I feel is a lot for a bandster. My trainer that works with me for the circuit training wants me to try and eat 2300 cal a day which I don’t know if that is possible for me. I don't buy into the theory you have to eat enough to lose it or starving yourself wouldn't work, which I am not doing. Has anyone else had this problem? Could I be exercising too much and eating too little? I would love to know your opinions!
