you shouldnt be skipping any meals that doesnt help you i was banded june 30th ive only lost 10 pounds and ive been bouncing back and forth between 239 and 237

When I started mushies I gained! I think your body goes into starvation mode and when you start putting in real food your system holds on to every calorie! Your body will get used to it. However I did not start to loose agian untill my first fill, I know some do but don't get discouraged if you dont. Some take several fills, we all are so different!
