Hello everyone I am new to the board. I had the surgery done in Nov. 2006. As of today I have lost 25lbs. I went for my first fill on Dec 26th. I am amazed by how much better I feel since the weight loss. I do have questions about what everyone eats to help with the weight loss. I am stuck and cant figure out what would be best to eat. I live in Texas and had my surgery in Dallas by Dr. Benevidas, everyone there has been great so far. I look forward to talking to all soon

I don't have a specific diet. I eat what I want and stop when I'm full. I do lean towards yogurts, cottage cheese and foods like that. I do like meat but chicken doesn't seem to set as well with me. Anyway, congrats on being banded. I love my band.

Congrats Shaebird!!!

I am only 13 days out, but there are some really good ideas on how to break a plateau on the Lower Bmi thread. I post a lot of info on there that I find and have a few things on this subject!
