My band is an amazing tool!! I've lost 80+ pounds in 10 months! I'm 11-15 pounds from my goal. Many of my co-workers are doing the plexus diet. I'm just wondering how it works with the band. Does it work with band? Have you tried it?

Never heard of it but I just googled it. It's just a powder right?

If you're successful with eating normal food why would you want to go on a diet?

If it's a liquid you drink, it's a slider food and will go right through the band and not give you any kind of satiety? If you're OK with that I see no reason why you can't go with it. But, why would you if you're already having success with eating normal food?

from what I have been told it's a liquid that turns into some kind of thick substance that is supposed to make you feel full. I'm not sure I would mess with anything like that with a band. like tmf I wonder why you would need to do any diet or gimmick since you have the band?

I wouldn't try anything without approval from my doctor. I am curious to know if anyone with the band has tried it. I've met several people that diet from time to time with the band.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
