Thanks everyone! I go to dietician Sept 6th but I don't think I have a good restriction yet.

Can anyone give me a basic rundown of what you eat in a day? 12 weeks post op..2 fills and still not in green zone. This is hard!

My fitness pal is awesome! I am Julie2174 on there. Feel free to add me.

Julie2174. Add me!

Who is on myfitnesspal? If so look me up...julie2174. It is a great tool!

How did it go?

I personally feel great..my calorie goal is 1200 and I can't get to it..I am around 900 calories right now + I am walking..walked a mile tonight! Best decision ever made!

Yes it is great to meet u...are u on facebook?? If so look me up...Julie Reno Camp

My Dr is Dr Schmidt at St Vincent's East...i was so nervous about my fill today that I took a half day off work! My appt was 3 and was not bad at all...like a shot..not bad at all!

I am down 17 since June 4

KathyofAlabama, I am from Alabama too. What part? I am in birmingham. So when you say some retriction what are some things your able to eat?

Your right that does make sense! Thank you!!

I have Realize band.

I thought it would be 2 cc but when she said 5 cc I did not argue and when the water went down without trouble I was ok with it. LOL..I guess when I start to actually eat something then I will know.

So is 5CC too much to start out with in a 11 cc band? I thought that was too much but I drank some water and it went down ok. She said the normal cc is 8 in a 11 cc band.

Sorry for repost..I did not think first one went thru!

Had surgery June 4th and I will get fill Monday but I am able to eat normally now and gained back like 10 lb! What is wrong with me? I have such a huge addiction with food....
