STL, Missouri

Thank you very much!!! I was barely fitting into a 24 and now 18 are getting too big!! I know I am getting smaller but, especially when I'm out with people smaller than me I still feel very uncomfortable and out of place, I just hope that one day I can start to feel a little comfortable in my own skin!!

This journey has been such a god send but a struggle at the same time!! I was banded 10/11/12 and have lost 85 lbs to date!! I am Hoping to hit the 100 mark by my birthday 06/23, but won't get discouraged if I don't!! My struggle Is I know I look and feel better but when I look at my self in the mirror or go out I still see my big fat self!! I have recently started a new relationship and all I can think about is does he look at all my fat? How can I get past this?? Does it ever go away! Just needed to vent... Thanks!!

I am right there with you MsBritt..I have yoyo'd these past 3 weeks with the same 5 lbs, I am in desperate need of a fill, I go to the dr on Jan 25th and I pray I get one..I know it will help get me back on track..but I've been trying to change up my diet too!!

I eat a lot of salads with canned chicken on top for the protein...

Thank you..I have started to get very worried...as of just up to a couple says ago I had tons of restriction was barely even able to eat the 1 cup I am supposed to but these last 2-3 days I have just not felt the restriction I had and I am just "craving" food!! Plus I noticed this morning I was a little swollen.. So hopefully it is d/t the TOM stuff..
