Lee Lewis

I am 6 feet tall, my calorie intake is about 1700, I try to get less. I have no support group from my surgeon and the nutrationist was just there for the insurance purposes. I am reading and reading, thanks for all your help.

I have been in hell for all most two months. I have been the last week sub meal with Special K Protein shakes. Does anyone know if these are ok. Also I stay hungry. Need Help to stay full.

Thanks for the advise, I never thought of my calories I consume, I will keep track from now on.

I had my surgery February 8, 2013 and at the time of surgery I had lost 20 lbs prior to surgery. I am now 5 months into this journey and my weight is going the opposite way. My surgeon has said that I know how to go around the band and not eating properly. I would like help in getting back on the right track, I am back on Protein Shakes 2 to 3 a day, and try to eat a healthy meal. I will admit my weakness is McDonalds Sweet Tea and there cookies. I am trying my damest to stay away. I am going this week to join a gym so I am exercise. I do not like the heat, so I believe this will help me. Again any help on getting back on track would be greatly appreciated.

I am having a hard time staying full. I am 3 months post op and have stayed the same weight loss for two months now. Total of 50 lbs. I am loosing inches little by little. Any one out there to help me. I am maintaining a 1200 calorie diet. HELP!

Band 2/08 and down 44 lbs.

Is popcorn safe to eat, I have had some bad experience with food and I am afraid to try the one in the bags, by Smartfoods.

One thing I do is try to stay away from anything in a box or bag. This is a slow process but it works.

I had my surgery 2/8 and feel great. Only disappointment is after my 1st fill I gained 2 lbs. I went back Tuesday and got another fill. I now have a total of 6.5 cc now. And a restricted diet of 1200 calories. Any suggestion to keep full between meals. I am using a strict calorie counter to achieve this.
