I was banded 3/20, I track all my food on myfitnesspal.com, and get between 750 and 900 cal a day. That is because I am working so hard to get my Protein.< /p>

I am down about 35 since my preop but 45 since the first of the year. I weigh on Tuesdays (why Tuesdays? I have NO idea!) I have alot ot lose so, it goes pretty quick. I have noticed it slowed alot since I started mushies amd soft food. Before that my average calories were about 650 - 750 a day.

I am only asking because I am staying the same since my week 2. I weighed 211 and this morning I weighed 208.8.. I exercise every day and give it my all. So its gonna come off. Wish I wasn't so addicted to my scale

I am down 24 lbs since being banded. I was also banded on the 19th. I try to get between 1000-1200. If I do too many days below that I stop losing. The other big thing for me is Water. I have to drink at least 72 oz a day or I don't lose. It seems like I am on the high side of the calories. I don't know how others are getting by on so few.

Fozzy, are you a large man or a petite woman? Caloric intake won't be the same for all of us. And exercise is a factor too.

I am so addicted to the scale I get on everyday when I wake up. I think I am going to try skipping a week because I went 10 days without losing anything and I was really getting frustrated so maybe not such a good idea to get on everyday. I am going on 6wks post op this tues. And I am down 30lbs=).

Jepegurl- I am a woman. I am 5'8 and started this at 350lbs. I burn on average about 3200 calories a day. I wear a link armband, so I am confident in my calorie burn. I work out 4-5 times a week and have been tracking my food and Water religiously since January. I also weigh daily.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
