Should I be more concerned with sugar or calories? I've been keeping a journal of what I consume (still on full liquid phase) , and keeping track of calories and protein. For example, my instructions from the Dr. says diluted juice, but juice has a lot of sugar. I'm a little confused about all this. I'd appreciate any input.

Thanks,

Here's my quandry. So if we are counting calories and Protein and fat, sugar, etc., what actual 'role' does the band play? Is it that it shrinks your stomach so you get full faster? Sometimes I feel like if I had stuck to all of these guidelines to begin with, why did I need the band. I'm not trying to be negative here, I'm really asking.
