    Cards when eating in restaurants?

    Sweet tomatoes, Chili's, and a few others.
  5. I can relate after 2 slips along with unfills. Fighting to lose after each gain. I started at 289 lbs then lost to my all time low 198lbs. Now sitting filled at 241lbs. It sucks!! The weight battle isn't easy. With all this shorten and said I'm trying. In the meantime my husband had the band removed for medical reasons and started at 408lbs got down to 210lbs. Now is at 290lbs. I can't let us fail. We worked way to hard. We have a vacation coming up in March. I'm going to try my absolute best to use the vacation as motivation to get us on track.

    Advice that makes you crazy.

    That's ok after a slip I did gain a few pounds back. A close family friend had the nerve to say to her new partner "see I told ya that weight lost surgery crap don't work look at her she is back fat again".

    May 2010 till now

    Hi I've unfortunately had a couple different docs due to the requirements of insurance. Am I the perfect bandster since my 2nd slip in May not I am not. After gaining weight back for a 2nd time it's hard.
  9. I had my band surgery in May 2010. I started at 289 till dropped down to 198 after 2 slips and set backs. The last slip was May 2015 since then I've gained back 30lbs. I am now at 243. I am so off track and discouraged it's crazy. Work, having teenagers and premenopausal (only 38 yrs old but mom had the same issue) symptoms is a extra challenge. I recently joined a larger gym. I've not done hot yoga which I love for a year now. Any encouragement or following is greatly appreciated. Looking at pictures is awful. I am getting back to that ugly fat person I don't love as much and that is bringing me down. Signed failed band Patient
