  1. Thanks everyone for you're quick responses. .... I will listen and take hive...... but I thought I was doing those things..... maybe I do eat to fast..... but I have changed what I am eating just to get food down........ yesterday I tried eating...... tomato and basil soup..... pb'ed..... A taco...... that worked but took me a our a hour and a half to eat it...... I tried mashed potatoes and a pork chop that was a no go so I got some hot tea and pbed that. .... I weighed this morning and was 224.5..... yesterday I was 226..... I know that is just dehydration. .......
  2. My story. .... I was banded March 2011.... I am 5 feet 8 inches tall..... starting weight 268 current weight 226...... The lowest weight since being banded was 218 that was last June...... I've had 2 unfills over the past 3 years for being to tight...... Over the past year I gained 22 lbs putting me back at 240lbs...... so a month ago I went and got a fill for the first time in a year. .... I went from 6.8 cc to 7.2 cc and I pb most days..... yesterday was the 1st time in 7 days that I didn't pb and was able to eat. ...... today I'm back to pbing everything even hot tea. ..... so I feel like I'm miserable for no reason because I can't eat...... and I'm still not losing weight. .... I think I'm just gonna be unfilled down to 6 cc..... and just be fat er and happy
  3. Current weight 224..... starting weight 268 .....goal weight was 185-190..... he'll I would have loved to just see 199....... 3 years and 2 months out.......smh
  4. I'm at my wits end and ready to give up on the weight loss and just be a fat as the rest of my life..... I had a fill about 4 weeks ago..... down only 10 lbs and I pb everything..... I haven't thrown up yet but I pb everyday..... I'm miserable. ..... I want to be able to eat..... it would be different if I couldn't eat and I were losing tons of weight. .... I'm just miserable for no reason. ....
  5. I've also had the band for 3 years ... my original weight loss goal was 78 lbs..... at the 2 1/2 year mark I finally reached the 50 lb mark..... then I gained 22 lbs back...... just got a fill after 9 months hopefully I will start losing again.... starting weight was 268 current weight is 230..... lowest banded weight 218.....
