Hersheyskiss21 4 Posted January 24, 2013 Ok I'm confused I am not losing any weight...I had my fill last week and have moved to lentils and soft foods and I'm off the Soup but now I'm not losing weight...is it the lentils? I'm kind of bummed out..my portions are about 4oz each time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheryl2586 3,053 Posted January 24, 2013 You are not going to lose weight every single week. It just doesnt happen, however lentils being high in Protein are very high in carbs also. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fills add Fluid to your band to control your appetite and suppress hunger. It has nothing to do with your metabolism. The only way to lose weight is to burn more calories than you consume- and that isn't a quick process. Best wishes. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted January 24, 2013 please forgive me now if i am coming across harsh. short and sweet.....you are still recovering from major surgery. so stop weighing constantly you are swollen and have fluids and gas and all that goes along with it. the first month is for basically healing and getting your mind frame in the game...so dont worry about (not losing right now)..... follow your dr's guidelines..stick with it no matter what soon, very soon, you will notice a big difference...you must heal first and the best thing you can do is realize this is a process and not an overnight miracle. 2 cassieb and DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rojasanoll 920 Posted January 24, 2013 Exercise of any kind will help recharge a possible low metabolism. Try some walking each day. And it takes time to lose weight and it doesn't stay everyday. Remember how long it took us to get out weight out of control. Best wishes 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
