You certainly have a different menu than most of us do? You should be on solids by now and not eating slider foods. You can lose weight eating those foods(depending on your calorie intake) but you're defeating the purpose of having the band?

I'm agree with you , about my menu. But he said to prevent complications . I'm aloud to have 4 to 6 oz of Soup, and with that I feel full.

Why are you still on "full liquids"? Grits' date=' pea Soup and more soup... High in carbs. Do you trck your food on something like myfitnesspal.com?? No wonder your struggling!

My doctor said to prevent any complication , that's why still on full liquids . And I do track, what I eat . No more than 4 to 6 oz of the soup. .

I have the same problem. Before surgery I was 230 ,now I'm on 207 . But since January 21 , I haven't lose no even one pound . I'm still on full liquids .

I have grits , for Breakfast no more than one oz , pea Soup 6 oz and more soup for dinner . I'm really frustrated . Doing exercised 2 times a week . Don't know what o do

Just give sometime and you will . Have faith, keep me post to see how are you doing . Wish you the best

I feel weak sometimes , the Protein that I'm taking it taste like crap. I told my doctor , but he said that I need it to take it

Beside that I fell good . Sometimes the smell of the food , makes me feel like eating everything in the menu , but I have to be strong . I can't afford to do nothing stupid I pay for my surgery , because I didn't have any medical condition for them to cover my surgery. I was 80 pounds over weight and my BMI was 39 % , but I didn't have any medical issue according to them ( insurance ) . But I don't regretted to have my surgery. Try many diets , and don't loose any weight . Now I was 230 and now I'm 209. Very happy about this .

Because I can't lift more than 30 pounds , and my job description won't aloud me to do it . So now I'm on FML . Until the 21.

Still no able to go back to work. Still on Clear Liquids , and hungry . Sometimes I feel like eating something. But then , when I see all the weight that I lost , I said no.

I really can't wait for the next step . But I have to wait another week . ?

My doctor told no to those , Protein Shakes .i really don't know why .

I found a great whey Protein it is Nectars Fuzzy Navel. It is clear like a juice and has an orangey/peachey flavor. I pretend I am having a cocktail :-) It is a great deal on Amazon. I do not like the milkey ones so needed to find an alternative. I have a question does anyone have pain at their port site when they bend at the waist? Maybe I just need to heal longer but it hurts to bend to pick things up I dropped or to sitt perfectly upright it feels irritated. Thanks :-) Oh and I find a cup of prune juice a day keeps me happy.

I guess each doctor is different . I'm still on liquids diet , for the next month. Which is January 21 . But , the only way that I'm having my Protein liquids is with one saltine cracker . I shouldn't but is my only way . I need my protein , because I feel really weak .

I can't wait for my soft diet

Good morning ! Just wake up,feeling hungry . It's been days that I didn't feel like that .i wasn't able to sleep good last night . I work nights and not used to be on my bed at night . But it really feels good to be home .

I feel, pretty good. Sometimes feel weak, but I think is because the Protein takes horrible . I have my surgery on 12/21 . So happy about my decision.

I have my surgery on the 21 , and I really feel weak. My doctor give me Protein ,but it really taste bad .

All I can said , be strong . You make a decision and don't look back . Wishing you the best . Be strong .

Going for my surgery tomorrow . Very exciting , and looking for this new chapter of my life .

I pray that everything goes well , be positive

Thanks , blessing to you too.
