  9. Hi All! I am currently on Mushies and I recently got on the scale (silly me) and notice I gained 2 pounds! Is there a certain amount of calories I should be eating on this phase! I am surely missing the days (2 weeks ago) when I was stuffed on chicken broth and couldnt finish the whole bowl! I am starting to become a lot more hungry to the point when I wonder if my band is correct (silly I know) Im so worried I am eating too much! Should I be staying under a certain amount of calories??? I cannot gain anymore weight! Please Help!:thumbup:
