How many calories do ya'll average a day? What should my goal be?

Thank you all for your input. I have not tracked what I eat and I eat way more than a cup for most meals. I will start tracking today and make my 1 year follow up appointment. I saw a nutritionist before every fill I received and up until April of this year I had been keeping up with my appointments. But when the PA told me I was at the max for fills I got discouraged about going back. I did not imagine still having this struggle when I got the surgery

Hi I was banded in August 2011 and have lost 35lbs to date. I am extremely frustrated though. At the beginning of the year I started exercising cardio and weight training 5-6 days a week and have not lost more than 10lbs. My band has been filled to max and I still feel it is not enough as I can eat full plate some days and others I am full after 2 bites. Because of the lack of success with my weight loss I am ashamed to go back for my year follow up. Can anyone offer suggestions or support. This surgery was a last ditch option and I am having severe surgery remorse and wishing I had done gastric bypass. I know it's wrong to want to just loose weight but I have been heavy since I was 12 and I just want to be healthy and in shape.
