Weight loss succes factors - our own study

Scott,

I think there is one more very important factor you left out.

% of time you follow the "Band Rules" ie. solid protien first, high Fiber veggies second, starch last if at all. along with no liquids at or after meals.

In my opinion follwing these guidelines while eating each meal makes a huge difference in your success.

Not to be a pain, but can you really relate number of fills to weight loss if everyone doesn't have the same band, not everyone starts at the same fill amount, etc? It may not be a contributing factor?

This is interesting reading the various results and ways that people have worked with and around the band.

My results are 266 lbs.// 6 months since banded// 5% drinking within an hour after eating// no excercise// no fills// no diet drugs// caucasian// lost 87 lbs.
