good afternoon all....

 

I have been upset since being banded I have not seen my scale move more then 3 lbs....

I have been walking miles every day and just not being a couch potatoe at all....eatting all good things...trying not to eat to much of it...but not always good there...but still the scale wont budge...( waiting for my first fill)

This morning on the way to church my 10 yr old yells as only a 10 yr old can...WOW MOM YOUR BELLIE DOESN`T TOUCH THE STEERING WHEEL ANY MORE !!! I had to take a moment and smile and rejoice in his excitment and my joy .....God is Good !!! and who needs the scale !

    That feels great huh?! Just keep doing what you're suppose to and those scales will eventually show it to. I think that's why too they want us to take our measurements because you're more apt to see the results there. And I agree....God is good!!

    Glad you noticed your success, the band causes us to lose differently than before and inches do seem to happen even when our scales do not budge. Congratulations to you!

    I have experienced the same event...I am compliant with the diet, exercise, and have lost only 1 pound since starting on soft foods. Muscle weighs more than fat, so while you are building muscle through exercise, you are loosing the fat, which the scale does not reflect. Keep focused...you will see the results. Remember also, that the band has the slowest weight loss rate. Keep up the great work!!
