Banded in January



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone I'm new here and looking for answers...I was banded on January 24 I've had 3 fills and now I'm at 7cc since May 3 with no weight lost. I lost 32 pounds during post op. should I go on a liquid diet again...

track your intake and take it into the doctor with you to find out how you can work on it better. This is diet and the same rules apply.

Sorry to hear you are struggling. The key is fining the right formula for you and your band, and not always how filled up you are. I assume you are following a nutritionist program, but I myself have found that I need a few more carbs than my nut had prescribed for me. I loose more weight the weeks that I allow myself healthy carbs (like a bowl of special K or tortillas) than the weeks I stick to high protien. Also, I have found that I have to drink a capful of Miralax in a zero calorie beverage every night to make sure my digestion is working if you get what I mean. Otherwise I am a miserable bloated mess.

Good luck and hang in there...you can do this =)

Makes sense that it may work. Like when they say changing up an exercise routine helps break plateaus. Good luck.
