if you get the lap band, a diet is un-necessary

just eat your allotted amount of good quality foods and exercise, and the inches/weight should steadily come off. that is how i am doing it. no tricks, no gimmicks, just doing what i have been advised to do.

Your question is a little confusing. There is no particular diet ith the band... Have to spoken to your dr about getting banded yet?

sorry after reading my question yes i have spoken to my dr and im getting banded dec 28. i meant to say what kind of nutritional foods do u guys eat like for example did u guys stay on the liquid diet instead of going to puree or solid foods??!?

I followed the doctors instructions, but was on liquids 3 week, then straight to soft foods. It seems every practice has its own regime. You should get details before or immediately after surgery!

yes thank you i have everything what to follow but what im trying to say ive heard of people stay on liquids more than a month i think ill just stick to what my dr has set for me

YES, by all means stick to what your Dr has set for you. That's what everyone should do. You'll do very well by following the Drs advice.

thank you much very well appreciated

Have you checked in with your bariatric surgeon or maybe talk with a nutritionist? When you say 2.5 is that cc's in your band? If it is what size band do you have?

thank you much very well appreciated

No problem Nessa. We're all in this together and we all want everyone to be a success.

The people that appear to lose really fast to me always seem to be low carbers, or those really strict on the Protein first thing.

Personally, I'd rather lose slower, lol.

But what really worked to keep it coming off for me was running - an hour six or seven days a week. I dont do quite so much cardio now, more mixed up and spaced out with things like circuit training and gym work. But to shed fat when you've got lots of it, running really works.

thank you Jachet

I'm a protein girl. I eat carbs just enough to not pull my hair out (that falls out on its own anyway) and if you stick to 3 meals a day you should shed weight fast enough.. I get crap for loosing too much too fast but it works for me. I learned a 10 to one plan that always keeps me at about 1000 calories and 100 grams of protein.

also, the larger a person is at the beginning (after surgery) can tend to lose more also...no idea why.

but as long as someone is losing (and doing it the right way) all the better.
