September 2007 check in

I have not journaled in so long!!!

I had a 3rd fill and they put 3cc's in my 4 cc band. The fill level is good and I have pb'd a few times, but the weight is still not coming off. I have been at a plateau for so many months. I had even gained 5 pounds. They came off with this last fill, but no more. I am at 164 now.

When I first got banded, I lost the 25 in the first few months. I was also taking a supplement called QuickSlim30 in the beginning. I didn't really know if it was the band or the QuickSlim30, but it helped a lot with appetite and energy. I have not lost any more weight since I have not taken the supplements.

I am going to do a 2nd experiment. I am going to start taking them again and see if I begin losing again. That would be great!!!

I was just on their website and they just came out with some patches too.

I am eager to see if I will lose again. I have been so frustrated lately. I don't want another fill because then I would be pbing all the time!!!!

I am still doing South Beach, most of the time.

But I am so tired of dieting!!!!!! That is why I got the band in the first place. The QuickSlim30 helped so much when I took it, I am hoping so much that it will help me shed the last 20 pounds. I lost it so fast the first time. Then, my band will help me keep it off!!!!!

I still have to get my butt moving to exercise. I know that I got too!!!!

I would like to have all my weight lost by my 34th birthday, on November 8. That is almost 2 months and I want to lose 19 more pounds. That is my goal!!!

Hi Audree!!

I know how you feel, I'm stuck at 186!!! I've been there for months. Today is my fourth day on liquids, I can't believe I'm sticking to it as much as I hated it in the beginning. I'm in school full time and I can only workout four days a week now, so I have to keep that schedule. On the other had I would like to lose my last 16 pounds by my birthday on November 4th so I have to get moving! Good luck!

Be blessed!
