What tips can you give some of the newly bandsters? What do you eat? Do you workout/how often/what do you do?

The best advice I can give is to see a nutritionist and set up food guidelines specific to your needs and lifestyle. I don't eat anything special, in fact I don't even do low carb like most here do, but I do follow the directions my nutritionist gave me.

As for exercise, I walk 2 miles about 5 days a week. Every day if I can.

I know this isn't going to help, but I don't eat anything special or different. I have a Protein shake for Breakfast every morning, a Lean Cuisine or maybe leftovers from dinner before for lunch, and whatever I am making for the kids for dinner.

I do stick to a cup or less of food at every meal, count calories, make sure to get all my Protein in, and limit my fat intake.

Best wishes

Today is the 9 month anniversary of my Lap Band surgery.

Since then I have lost 152 pounds.

I still have considerable weight to lose but I am SO happy with my results so far. It's definitely work and I've had to change my entire lifestyle but I am happier and healthier than I have ever been in my adult life.

I absolutely love my band! It's the best decision I've ever made for myself!

HAPPY DANCE!!! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

Missy, Are you on MyFitnessPal. It would be nice for those of us that want to read your food diary as you go along. Or went along congratulations

Janner146 - Nevada - Banded 9/12!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
