Wow you look amazing! Congrats! Any loose skin to have removed?

I don't sweat a lot either. I have a very low heart rate so I have to get it up very high before I break a sweat. You can get a heart rate monitor to make sure you are in your target fat burning zone. Drink plenty of fluids and you should be fine. You're losing weight so you must be doing something right. Keep up the good work!

I don't think a cleanse will hurt the band, but you'll probably get the same results with just doing liquids for a few days including your protein shakes of course. Good luck!

Your nutritionist will give you a list of Vitamins to take and Protein powders and drinks. You try different ones and see what works for you. For me since I have a band, the pills got hard to swallow so I went to chewables. I use Viactiv for Calcium and Centrum burst chewables for multivitamin, they taste like skittles. Good luck.

I have a realize band and it supposedly holds 11cc but I'm at somewhere around 12cc because my doctor said they can all hold more than they say they can hold. We're not sure exactly how much is in the band because when she tries to take all of the Fluid out she said it's impossible because some is always left in the tubing so I could be between 11 and 12cc. She said she has filled others to the max also because patient didn't feel any restriction. I had .25 taken out in October and haven't lost any weight in 4 months eventhough I go to a very rigorous bootcamp 4-5 days a week and eat my small meals, prob 3 is all I can manage. I'm going to doc tomorrow to see if I need more out because I still get a lot of reflux and sometimes food gets stuck. The band is a tricky thing. You should prob get a small fill if you are still hungry after meals.
