Only 1 pound a week..

Well, I have slowed down to 1 pound a  week.   I exercise Everyday for at least 30 min.. I try to eat  1200 calories a day.  How many calories do u eat?  How can I boost this weight loss???

Hi Lisa, Sounds like you are doing everything you should!  Don't fret over the slow down though.  The average weight loss for the band (or so i've been told) is 1 to 2 pounds a week so you are right on track.  I bet you are just like me though and are (am?) impatient to get the weight off!! Keep up the great work!

im around 600 calories and i have stopped completly losing weight, i think its been a month and i have not lost anything, its so depressing.

     Lisa, do you log your food intake? and your fluid intake? maybe up your calories or lower your calories a little to give your body a adjustment phase...     im not sure what surgery you had so I cant exactly tell you what to do just some general ideas..    good luck... tcnaegle-- is 600 calories enough?? I'd starve to death!!!!!!!!!!! dawn  

WOW 600 calories?? You body is probably in shock because it needs MORE food.. so it's holding on to everything your putting in it... EAting too little will cause your body to freeze up and not do anything.. I 've always  heard staying around 1000-1200... Never to go below 1000... Good luck..
