    my band was July 2011. I am down almost 80 pounds my exercise routine is very inconsistent because of other helath issues. I had back surgery this past June and currently going through physical therapy 3x a week. Hope to return to work 2 timesa week starting this week, if I can tolerate it. I am havng a hard time staying within the 1000 cal day that my doc is recommending. I am usually between 55-65g of protein each day. how are you doing with your food intake?
