5 months post op

hi all

 

so i am doing pretty good...i am 5 months out and about 46ish pounds lost which is amazing...i am however hitting a wall its seems...i'm not really loosing as much as i would like. i am going for an adjustment...my 3rd.... i was also looking for good food advice... i feel like i'm doing something wrong... i eat pretty good but on occasion i eat something i shouldn't...i have controlled myself with that for the most part... sometimes i feel however that once i cheat its like i instantly gain a pound or two and that my exercise is not doing anything! i dunno i think most of it is psychological but who knows...anyone have any advice?

Work with the band and it will work for you! A little slip or lb. is not in the Big Picture. We all lose at different rates. Look at how well you have done. Congratulations 46 ish is GREAT enjoy the loss.

When I got my third fill that is when I found my sweet spot. So go slow and remember to chew. I did not feel the effects of the fill until 4 to 5 days after the fill so it kind of tricked me. Best wishes and keep up the great journey. I'm on it with you. imaluckydog
