  2. I haven't had a pill in my last doc visits. And during those visits I was in track. I got married this past September and ate wat I wanted on my honeymoon. And since then it's like I do right some of the time mostly not doin right at all. Struggling to get to the gym. It's my own fault really.
  3. I've jus had my 2year anniversary with the band and I wasnt happy with where I stand today. Since September I've gained 17 pounds. It's like I've lost the will to fight. I want to get back on track but it's like I have forgotten wat to do. The struggle to do the right thing is very real. I feel like such a failure I feel like crying. I have no one to blame but me. Can anyone give me some pointers so I can get back on my journey. I know ultimately its up to me to do the work.

  11. I had my 3rd fill today .4cc not much at all. But since my last fill march 19th i have lost 14 pounds oh yeah oh yeah. Im so happy with myself. People think this is easy and as my fellow banders know that is not the case. This is a hard road we have chosen but worth it in the end. even tho i go a long wsys to go its still exciting thinking about wats to come. S/n does anyone eat indian food thinking about venturing out. Wat a good beginner dish. Anywho i hope all is well ladies ane gents. No worries and keep on keepin on
  12. Hey banders i have a question as usual and to to tell you guys about this mexican recipe i read about. A few months before my surgery i boughrt a spaghetti squash and im not a squash fan, so i let it sit in the frig for so long and let it go bad. Needless to say it went bad. But right i miss spaghetti and pasta so ima b brave and try again does anyone have any good recipes or tips. And then i saw a low carb recipe to make a taco shell. U basically take a 3rd a cup of cheese and put it on parchment paper and micriwave it till cheese is melted and bubbly. While on the paper from the cheese around q round object to from a taco shape. When it cools take parchment paper off and load it up with ur favorite taco ingredients.
