hi, i am in bakersfield and i was banded on june 12 and had my first fill two weeks later. i have lost 25 lbs. but i have not lost any thing in the last week and i want to know if anyone else has done this too? i need a support group soo bad. i am full of questions. what can you guys eat? how many calories are you eating a day? how much protien is in each serving of meat, chicken, fish...etc? i am a mess and my surgeon did not prepare me for this. he told me to consume liquids for the first week, then on to solids, but no real advise on the good, bad and ugly. :help: thanks guys, jasmine
