Thanks to everyone who answered and gave me the incentive to get up and keep going. Today I went for fill #3 and the scale said I lost 3 lbs! I was so dreading this weigh-in! Thanks again and back on track...

Thank you all for such kind words! I must admit that I did weigh myself on a scale I had never been on plus it was late that night. I usually only weigh on the scale on Monday mornings at the gym or every 2 weeks at the doctor's office. I go in Thursday for my 3rd fill. Never minded needles before but now I am getting tired of them! Love my mom to death but that 73 yr old, 5'4", size 4-6, old lady challenged me to a 3 mile sprint in July knowing full well I am competitive! I got a feeling I am going to need you all for some butt kicking til then!!!! Thank deeply.

I am so down. I weighed myself on my friend's scale at home and according to it, I have gained 4 lbs! I was doing so great and yes I did stop going to the gym because I am going through menopause and I had a really bad period that lasted 2 weeks. Now I am very down. I can't say depressed because that would be too "drama Queenish" for me. But yeah, down is the word. I am trying but need a good kick in the butt. Any good suggestions? Oh I was banded on Nov 4th 2011 and lost 40, now gained 4. UGH!
