  1. Happy 37th Birthday labec1130!

  2. Happy 36th Birthday labec1130!

  3. I just read in another thread about the same problems with weight loss. It was stressed there that if you are eating too little calories that your body could go into starvation mode and reserve all your calories thus little to no weight loss. 600 calories a day with such vigorous exercise seems like too little to me but I may be wrong. Ask your Dr. of course and dont get discouraged. It will come to you. You seem to be quite dedicated so I know you will experience incredible results. It does however require something I know I dont have much of...and that of course is patience:)

    For struggling new bandsters

    I am so glad that I came across this thread. I am 3 weeks post-op and have lost 8 lbs since surgery and have been really down on myself for not losing more. I am hungry all the time and shamefully have started eating solid foods already. Hoping for my first fill tomorrow. I wanted to reply so that this thread could be "bumped" for anyone else who is in need of some wisdom and compassion. Thanks to everyone who posted here and good luck to all.

    Banded 2-21, having problems

    I dont know if that is normal or not. I was banded on 2-18 and did not have any severe pains. Although I did take meds pretty regularly and have been getting alot of walking in. The walking has helped move the gas immensely. Hopefully it will help you also. Good luck!

    Striver, That is so neat that were having surgery on the same day. I will be thinking of you and saying a little prayer for your quick recovery. Mrs M, Thank you for your kind words of wisdom. I look forward to being in your position one day and giving some encouragement of my own.
