I was banded on August 18, 2009. Starting weight was 277. I have lost 20 pounds so far. I had my first band fill October 12, 2009.
I'm so frustrated at this point. It's been two months since surgery and I have only lost 20 pounds. My food intake has been drastically reduced. For exercise, I do 25 minutes of step aerobics with 3 lbs weights. I guess I need to eat celery for every meal???
I am trying the slim fast shake for breakfast. Maybe lunch too. For dinner I cook using a Light Crock Pot cookbook. I still need to feed my family! I see other people losing 30 - 40 lbs by now! I'm not going to give up, I just need more pounds to come off. Working out at this weight is killing me!
:crying:
I'm going to make a few adjustments in my eating habits. I'm hoping the slim fast shakes will fill me up. IDK. I'm trying! Thanksgiving is coming up and I will be seeing family. They will be wanting to see a huge weight loss!! I feel like crying right now...gotta go workout now. No time for crying
