Recommended Posts

Well today I got 1.2 cc in my 14cc band for a total of 8.2cc..I feel a little difference but not much...we will see once I go back to solids...lost 5 pounds...it's bc I've decided I can't just rely on this band alone..so I've been walking 2-4 miles a days 6 days a week, and some days I include zumba am my total gym machine..not to mention am really counting calories and increased my Water intake..so in one week I've lost 5 pounds..so that's my motivation...

The band was never designed to work alone. You have to work with eat. New lifestyle, new eating habits, and new exercise habits. The band is just a tool. Congratulations on getting more exercise.

It's truly all about You and the choices you make in selecting the proper foods. Congratulations on the weight loss and picking up the exercise. Try and count all your calories each day and pick an amount to stay at unless the doctor gave you a max amount. I'm at 1250-1260 calories each day and I also have a 14cc Allergan band with 6.5cc total saline solution.

Best wishes

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
