:DHaha THANK YOU ladies..you just made me smile...I have gone from a size tight 24 pants and 3x tops to a size 18pants and XL top...I was so excited to go to the "normal" Maurices (not the plus size store) and be able to purchase something for myself. I have been going to the goodwill and purchasing pants in a size 12 new as an incentive to get to my desired size...Keep up the good work my fellow bandsters, you make this ride more enjoyable

I get this too..nice to know I am not the only one!!

Maddie Lynn, I can see how you feel this way. I was banded on June 1st and I think I am doing well as far as the weight loss goes and better than most with the exercise. I have had sort of a set back as well...but like you said it is all about my mindset. My body tells me I am full but I will continue to eat since I don't get sick. I went through some pictures and found 2 of myself at my highest and that was a GREAT wake up call to get back to being strict as far as measuring and writing everything that goes into my mouth...Not necessarily advice just letting ya know I was there too and you CAN overcome this!

Yipppeee!!! I am so excited for you! I have gone to Maurices 3x already to try on size 18 jeans just to SEE that everything I am doing is paying off...such a great feeling...Congrats!

Well first off, Congrats on the weight loss so far! I can relate with you... I have lost 36lbs since my surgery on June 1st and I don't feel like I look any different than I did before...I don't understand it either...I have gone from a tight 24 to size 18 but it just doesn't seem "real". I have always been a big girl since I was 5yrs old, so I have no idea what it is like to be thin or LOOK thin. Sorry I guess this isn't very helpful, but at least you're not the only one =)

Yeah I love the happy dance!!! Congrats to you!!!

Thats AWESOME!!! I would love to try zumba, even with my lack of coordination! You have done great since your surgery hope you feel it...

I completly understand, the very first time I got sick was after taking my multivitamin...I even smashed it and put it with water...I went to gummies and love them!

CONGRATS!!! That is an amazing accomplishment!! Hope you celebrate!

Haha that's hiliarious livingmydream...I couldn't wait til I got on pureed foods it was heaven!

Thank you KatDub!!!

I love BSN Dessert protein shakes..my favorite is the banana cream pudding..I chop up some bananas and make a smoothie, DELISH!! They also have choc coconut candy bar which is also very yummy...I haven't tried the banana nut bread or the whipped vanilla ones yet...sorry I don't have the nutritional facts for you, I'm at work shhh!! Good luck on your new adventure
