  4. TMF.....you're absolutely right, I'm not a failure. But i am pretty much PO'D with myself. I am losing inches its just the numbers on the scale aren't changing the way that I want them to. And I also allow my mind to run wild when I go in for my fill. I sitting there thinking that ,my doctor and his nurses are looking at me and thinking we have another one not doing what she is suppose to. And I know this is not the case. I really don't have much of a support system here. Its more of a competition. My husband has been banded for 6 wks as of yesterday & is already down 35 lbs. And having to listen to him tell me that I'm not applying myself or I'm not trying has really reached its limit with me. I'm not on this WLS journey for him so don't get me wrong. But I still have to hear this only a daily basis. So i'm going to take this fustration & start working out more on the weekends and try to squeeze in extra time in the mornings before work . Thanks TMF.... I needed that.
  5. I too feel like a failure when it comes to my band. I was banded on 02/24/12 and had my second fill on 05/29/12, feel no restriciton & I'm constantly hungery. I have lost only 17 lbs and I'm disappointed in myself. I wanted to know if I should go back on the soft diet in order to increase more wls because right I truly feel like a FAILURE !!!!
