Mushy Foods

Hi all,

I was banded on 15 October last and have been on the full liquid diet until tonight. I wanted to maximise weight loss and lost 20 pounds up until Sunday 7 November last but lost nothing yesterday at weigh in.

This evening, I blended mixed vegetables, a scoop of mashed potato and some turkey with Soup and ate nearly a full cup. I am just wondering what quantity I should be eating. I was also wondering how your weight loss has progressed on the mushy food stage of the diet. I haven't exercised so far as I was eating 500 calories per day up until last week and then upped it to 650 calories each day last week as I was very hungry. As my weight stalled this week and as I am progressing on to mushy foods, I think it is probably time to start exercising now but you might let me have your opinion.

I am due my fill on 2 December next. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks
