Dear God Help Me

i fell off the bandwagon so to speak and have not being doing what I know I should be doing, luckily I didnt gain any weight but I didnt lose any either. I went to surgeon last week and cried and he suggested I go for an adjustment under fleuroscopy so he can make sure I have a proper adjustment well, no eating 3 hours before so I was scheduled at 12 noon, got up at 9am so i didnt get to eat. he did the procedure, band looks good and he gave me another 1 cc adjustment. my problem is NOW im starving. i had soup, soup and more soup. he says liquids for 48 hours. protein shake isnt helping, im about to eat some solid food, I need encouragment and suggestions of what I can do to not feel like im starving. I am also diabetic so this is making me feel nauseated, I dont want to fall off the wagon again when I just got back on it, but im so hungry. -sigh-

Frustrated To The Point Of Crying

As I type this, tears fill my eyes. I am so frustrated with my weight loss. I was seen in december of 2010 and was 272, I had to go to my primary dr for 6 months with supervised diet which I did and got down to 254 in august of 2011, I did preop diet for one week and lost 5 lbs putting me at 249 day of my surgery which was aug. 31 2011, thats 6 1/2 months ago and I am down to 229. I cant seem to budge, I eat so much less than i did before but nothing seems to happen. one week i weigh 229, then i weigh 233 then back down to 230 then to 229 its like a yo yo. I have had 4 fills with a total of 6 cc in my band and i have restriction. I dont pb much and I dont eat much but something is not working for me. I have a difficult time exercising because I have muscle weakness and pain, went to my primary dr today and he is testing me for rhematoid arthritis and says i could have fibromyalgia or myastenia gravis. my surgeon says that i shouldnt have to exercise to lose my weight and im eating correctly or atleast i think I am but im not losing. very very frustrated and my surgeon is not very nice anyhow and all he says is what are you doing wrong and I explain to him what im doing and he says well you habve plenty of restriction you need to learn to work with the restriction you have and im like wtf does that mean? I am working with it. I also joined weight watchers thinking that would help keep my on track and track my food better but still nothing, not really gaining but not losing either. and I know we are NEVER suppose to compare ourselves with other WLS patients, but when i read all these blogs and profiles and see how so many have lost 80 lbs in 6 months it just makes me cry even more. guess Im just destined to be the fat chic forever.
