Takes a few fills to finally kick in and maintain food intake without getting hungry. Be patient and keep up your good work of eating better and exercising.

you should be losing 2 lbs a week not days. The body can hold up to 5-7 lbs of Water weight. I weight myself every morning at 6 am and mark it on the calardar so I can see how it goes for me . it all comes out in the end I do the happy dance the second I see a lower number and keep that in my head. Good luck and keep up the good work

Weight loss can be slower in the beging because you are healing. The band does not make you lose weight. Its calories in verses calories burned. Make sure you are measuring and tracking everything you eat. Make sure you are drinking enough Water because that definetly plays a part in keeping you satisfied. Make good food choices. High Protein solids. Best of luck!!

50 lbs is great! Is that since surgery or before? Your body can go through adjustment periods and plateaus. You may need another fill or two before feeling satisfied longer between meals. The important thing is to eat your Protein first and make sure you are getting plenty of it. Hang in there, more weight loss will come!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
