Don't be hard on yourself and never give up! The last 2 months have been difficult for me, I have lost zip! Went on a vacation for 2 of the weeks. But I realize I hit plateaus from time to time and the lower my weight gets the longer they last. But I keep on pushing. Sometimes life just gets difficult and our old habits emerge, comfort food 101! But see your doctor, maybe you're just one fill away from continued success. Good luck and God bless!

I'm so sorry you were treated this way. I have been in a relationship with the same person throughout my weight loss. I know he loves me for who I am and not what I look like. I hope this guy wakes up and sees how hurtful he's being. Well off to work I go. Have a blessed day my friend.

When I started my weight loss journey 3 years ago I wore a size 12 ring, when it fit! I was over 420 pounds, in 2 years I lost 170 pounds and maintained for 1 year than in July got banded. I have now lost over 200 pounds. Last weekend went shopping with a friend and we were looking at jewelry the clerk insisted I try a ring on, much to my amazement it fit! She said it was a size 7, well I knew a 8 fit but could it be. I than tried on a dozen or more rings all were size 7's!! OMG the first ring I ever owned at age 11 was a 10, I have never worn a size 7 ever! Well my friend said well Susan you said you wanted to wear a single digit size and I laughed and said I didn't mean in a ring or underpants! I wear 12 and 14's but I want to make it to a single digit size hopefully! But hey a 10 would be great too! Just had to share.

I was on a 2 week vacation. Last time I vacationed it took me nearly 2 months to take off the 14 pounds I gained! But this time thank you lap band I did not gain a ounce! I didn't lose but I didn't gain so it's all good! The nearest 24 hour fitness was 50 miles from where I was staying so I didn't workout like I would at home. Well looking forward to a nice loss this month. Also got my 3rd fill last Thursday and I am feeling lots of restriction I get full on water! Will make for a great holiday season!!

I think I would get a hold of the doctor just to be on the safe side. Better safe than sorry as they say. Hope you have a quick recovery.

I gained a couple pounds when I went from liquids and purees to solid food. Just was a way of my body saying finely you're feeding me! But that was the week I was allowed to work out again and it came off the very next week. So don't beat yourself up, besides 4 pounds could simply be a Fluid gain. I stay away from the scale, I just weigh when I go in once a month fro a fill. Best wishes to you!

The YMCA helped save my life! They bent over backwards to help me through my weight loss. I go to 24 hour fitness now because my health insurance pays for it. But I owe the Y a lot, they use my weight loss story to raise money for their assistance program. I was even featured in a video for the Y. I miss them. Enjoy they are fantastic and very family friendly.

I have lots of excess skin, will have surgery next spring. But I did find out after the fact that there were some things I could have done to have helped with it. One was taking large doses of Vitamin E and D. I was taking the D but not the E. I started out at 421 and I am now 208, but hey I'd rather have excess skin than fill it out again!! LOL But I think you have time on your side, your age and if you have not had children yet that helps as well. I always tell people that the suit is wrinkled!! Oh well!!

You'll do fine. I just about bailed out but I am so glad I didn't. I have lost over 30 pounds since my band, putting my total over 200! I tell everyone i have lost a good sized man, and I gained a good man in the process!! Good trade off!
