  18. That's so unfair!!! I'm still proud of you!!! You've done an outstanding job!!! They don't know the band is just a tool!!! It doesn't make you work out like you have for 18 months to loose the weight!!! God will bless you in another way and your blessing will exceed $25,000!!!
  19. You go girl!!! I need secrets of success please! Lol
  20. You go girl!!! I'm proud of you. I hope I have some great success like this!!!
  21. I tried retried beans and thought I was going to die!!! Gas x didn't help either and I love refrained beans!!!
  22. I understand you being discouraged!!! Don't be!!! You have started exercising 6 days a week! That's phenomenal. I was banded 4/8/12 pre-op diet 258. Date of surgery 248. Today with 1 fill 235. So I understand not a lot of weight loss but I hv lost a lot of inches... Clothes fit better and I feel better. Don't focus on the pounds. My mom said just stay on track. Track your foods and calories. Get your Protein in. I've been working out 4-7 days in a week. I don't regret the band. I know I haven't had the weight loss desired and actually lost more after surgery but stay on track. Get with nutrionist and see what you can do to boost your metabolism. A lot of people have drastic losses that I was hoping for but this is a lifetime change. Stay focused and keep your determination!!!! Good luck lady and stay encouraged!!!
  23. You go girl!!! Give me some tips please!!!
  24. You look beautiful!!! You go girl!!!
  25. I was banded 4/8/13...I was filled with 5. On date of surgery. I had fill May 1, 2013. .7 for a total 5.7. Weight is fluctuating after off mushies. I was sticking to 1200 calories. They told me to change to 1100. So far I've kept 10-12 ibs off. I have a 10 cc. I was told I was eating to much sugar. Jello/pudding. I've taken that put and dropped back to 15 pounds. Still no real restriction but I have been staying full. I just need help with food choices. I've lost a ton of inches. I'm in jeans I haven't worn comfortably in years. Down to 16. But I hope to loose 60 -75 more. They scheduled me for another fill in 2 weeks.
