I havent been there yet (banded), but my understanding is 2 lbs per week. And at my rate right now I'll take those 2lbs a week. I understand this weight just didnt show up and its not just going to go a way that fast either. If I can get more I will take more, If I dont then I will understand that I might have done something wrong so I will take responsability for it. I have read Dr. Ortiz book and I promised to follow the rules thats the only way I know to take my life back. I'm doing this for my health. I know its going to be tough, And by God if i'm going to spend this money I'm going to make it work. And by the way, WTG Cedartown.

Congrats, hope you feel better. 4 days for mine. time is going by fast.

Dr. Miranda told me between 800 and 1000 calories for me. It's probably different for everyone.

I am in the same boat. What I did was buy a new scale Weight Watchers one its real real cool it gives you youre BMI and keeps track of youre progress, I only weigh in the mornings at the same time. It keep going up and down so I called Dr. M and she said to weigh every other day. And she is right. You get a beeter sence of the real weight loss. And WillT also is right I keeped the old scale and it is always off By 2 pounds. I thru that sucker away.

Congrats, Lets hope its smooth sailing ahead for you.

Happy Birthday Doc. Here's meeting you next week.

Oh WillT bad bad bad boy

Thats about it, but when I go I take my kids school ID also.

I'm so sorry about what you and you're mom are going thru. I have a cat now, and I know I would be devestaded if something happened to her. About the cookies, today is a new day, keep going foward.

My prayers are both with him and you. He will have a hot new woman to come home to.

Im doing the same I started a week early because its been real hard one me. The weight lost thing and me dont get along. Thats why I chose the band. I talked do Dr. Miranda this morning and she said if I still havave trouble then do the protein 3 shakes the last week. She wants me on 700 to 800 calories before the surgery. So next monday its going to be 3 protien drinks for me I hope I can handle it. I will keep checking on youre progress, so keep us posted ok.

My surgery date is June 10th Im down 8 with 7 more to go. Good luck and stick to it. You can do it.
