I'm in! I need a goal to work towards! I want to lose 10 lbs by May 5th! -Royce

You guys are all amazing and this has helped me so much. Thank you so much! <3 Royce

I've been doing my best to push til at least 2-2.5 hours but it takes all out of me! I get a headache and I'm really shakey. I do try to stretch the time as much as possible but exactly like you said- I don't want to get to that point where I'll shove anything and everything down my throat. I think I just have to suck it up! Thank you for replying :]

Hi everyone! I know it's time for me to get a fill. I've been waiting over a month for my appointment on Sept 11th and I just can't deal with this anymore! Every meal I have I get hungry about 1.5 hours later. It's really annoying and I am so sick of food (I never thought I'd say that! Haha.) I just don't know what to do. I've tried eating all Protein to stay full, tried eating more carbs, tried drinking a lot. The feeling of being hungry so much stresses me out. I usually eat 400-600 calories a day and I'm seriously up around 1000 a day. I've reduced my exercise to 2-3 times a week so I don't eat as much, but either way I lose. I've already gained 4 lbs in 3 weeks. Anyway, enough complaining! My question is- have any of you been here, and if so what have you done, avoided and had for food? I have two weeks left. Thank you for your time! <3 Royce

Hi everyone! Ok, I have a problem and I wanted to see what you guys thought. I got banded at the end of Sept 06, starting at 252 lbs. It is now the end of Oct 07 and I have only lost 55 lbs. I got my first fill in Nov of 06. I was so busy between school, work, and moving that I got my second fill in the end of Aug, just a few months ago. Since then, I have lost only 2 lbs. I'm so discouraged. I know I should have gotten my fills when I plateaued (um, I don't know, like a year ago!) but I was so busy. I only stay full for about 3 hours. I was a vegetarian for 5 years, and I know protein is a huge factor in losing weight. I just started eating lean cuts of chicken and turkey to help me but nothing is working. I work out for at least an hour each day, I stick to my diet and nothing helps. I feel like I wasted my first (and most important year). I guess my question is- should I get another fill? My band is at 2cc's. What do you think? Thank you, -Royce
