Hi,

I just had my band on 4/21/09. I just got my first fill last week (no restriction yet). I can eat anything and any amount right now. I have not lost any weight since last week, so now I am wonder it may be what I am eating.

Could you please share what you are eating during the day? What is your portion size?

Thanks you,

Hi everyone, I am new here an banded last Monday in TJ.

Everything is perfect an I couldn't be happier.

I am just looking for more info on food.

My question is I have heard folks that stay liquid longer or liquid for 2 of 3 meals lose more weight, what do you think?

Do you think a cup of food is about right (of course with consideration to calorie intake too)?

Any other info will be gladly read.

My name is Kathy & I am in Walla Walla.
