  1. Hey!!

    You are doing really well!! Don't give up and get pass this hurdle because you CAN DO IT. It is worth if not only for weight loss but for your future health!! I haven't lost recently either and it is frustrating but my doc only told me 6-8 pounds a month.......

    I see you on MFP and you are doing great with your working out also! It is nice your smiling face coming up with your boyfriend on the feed!

    Keep working hard it WILL PAY OFF!!!!!!


  2. Going to my sisters for dinner;

    The menu is chicken parm, spaghetti, turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, homemade bread, pastichio (its like a greek lasagne) salad, assorted cheesecakes from costco and apple pie ala mode.... (ya wonder how I got so fat??)

    I already entered into my fitness pal 4 oz portion of chicken parm and salad that I will be intaking tonight ;) .....So I am excited and READY TO EAT!!!! My fitness pal really keeps me in reality with food portions and caloric intake.

    Everyone enjoy dinner!!


  3. Καλή τύχη να σας my fellow greek

    It is awesome being banded. All my relatives where in town this weekend and my mom made spanakopita, pastischio, baklava, lamb etc and I had only a small bite of the spanakopita and lamb and I was satisfied!

    It is the best thing I have ever done!! Let us know how you are feeling after surgery

    Yasou!! ειρήνη


  4. My doc told me never again to drink coke/diet coke. He said it can stretch the pouch and perhaps the band could slip, so to me in isnt worth it, at all.

    That being said I used to drink almost 12 regular cokes a day....to be honest I do not miss it at all. I feel fantastic losing weight and drinking water!

    I have done and will do exactly what my doctor instructed me to and will continue to have success with my weight loss.

    Good luck on your surgery!! Congrats


  5. Only 3 people in my life know. I tell people I am working out and eating healthier small portions, which is very true.

    Unfortunately people are very judgemental and think we are taking the easy way out! We all know in here that the lapband is NOT the easy way out and we have to work very hard at this. I know i do!

    Congrats on your awesome weight loss!


  6. WOW awesome!!!!!

    My starting weight was 282 and my doctor told me 6-8 pounds a month for the first year. So anything over 72 pounds that I lose this year I will be very very happy.

    Congratulations on your weight loss, I would say you are doing fantastic to lose 102 pounds in 5 months!!

    Keep up the good work, any pictures to share of your incredible weight loss you would like to share!!!

    ;)


  7. It is sad, but we can't lose weight until we are ready. I have been to spas for 4-6 months at a time and lost 75-100 pounds each time, sadly I did gain it back.

    I think no matter what we do spas, dieting, exercise or even drastic surgery, if we aren't mentally at that point where we want to lose weight, we won't no matter what our consequences are.

    I hope the lady you visited will make it this time and I hope you encouraged her through this very drastic surgery she just had.

    Hope your wife is recovering well!
