    I do exactly what my surgeon and nutrition told me to do.

    1 cup of food or 3oz protein and 2oz veggies

    2-3 times a day.. 1 protein shake on gym days.. And plenty of water!!

    It is very hard in the beginning. Yes it does feel like the end of the world.. It does get discouraging.. But it does pay off!!

    Your band is only going to work if you enable it to!

    I had 2 fills.. And I'm at. 5ccs...

    Exercise... I've been doing things like Zumba, playing soccer, and running after my 2 year old son all day. Lol

    I'm staying away from weightlifting for now because I bulk up really fast so I try to do some cardio at least 2-3 times a week
