wow, I wish i loved exercise! I have a hard time getting on my wii fit, let alone going to the gym. I would honestly just rather be watching tv, or reading a book. I guess that why ive only lost 15 pounds this year. Give me some of your obsession, i sure can use it!

hello all from the Hampton roads area. My name is Crystal and I was banded june of 2008. I am really looking for a workout/support buddy in my area. I am the type of person that needs support when it comes to my weight loss. If anyone needs a friend like i do, please email me at jeremiahsmommy07@yahoo.com My best friend i was working out with bailed on me, and i really hate working out alone. Thanks guys!!

I am almost a year post op (will be in june) and i have only went from 290 to 236, I see all these posts with people losing like 120 pounts in 8 or 10 months. I wanna know what they are doing right that i am doing wrong. Any kind of advice is wanted. How your eating and/or exercising would be a helpful guide. Thanks yall.

Absolutly a foe to me. It takes too much time, being a single mom and a full time student, and it just all around sucks. Anyone know how to get around the boringness and suckyness of it? advice is truely needed because ive lost the first 50 lbs. and these next 50 are coming off toooo sllooooww!

Well, I started at my heavyest 280, then i was a 22/24, then about 260, i was a 20/22 now at 240, i am a 18/19.

Well, I got banded in June of this year. I bought some jeans and they didnt exactly button when I got them but i figured i could fit them by Christmas. Well, I tried them on and they fit! Only to realize I need a "short" and not a regular. But that im not too concerned about. I got them from the Jrs. Dept. which im even more happy about. (being that im only 21) I mean they are a size 19, but starting from a 24, im so glad. 40 lbs. lost at the 6 month mark, maybe by the 12th month, i will have lost 70-80 lbs. Yay!

I was banded june of this year. (08) I dunno if anybody else feels this, but when i over-do myself, especially on top, I feel some uncomfortable tugging port pain.

Drinking with food. I love my sweet tea. I had to switch to a decaff tea and splenda. Not that bad though.

I finally get a good fitting pair of jeans and then in a week and a half they start getting saggy on me again. (I love it, but its kinda annoying!)-anyone feel the same way?-I know some people wait to go shopping for smaller clothing, but my next size is in the "regular section" and I do not think I can wait. How often do you go shopping?

Don't worry I had the same problem, I was losing maybe, on a good week, a half a pound per week. I got my third fill about 2 weeks ago and losgt 5 pounds, so just hang in there!

on the top of my stomach just under my breastbone I am having this achy pain I am just worried about band slippage and pouch stretching. Does anyone know what that may feel like? Its been hapenening for about a week now.

Since my surgery in june, I have lost about 40 pounds, which I am happy for, but i have also had a baby (c-section) and I had hanging skin before in my lower belly but it is worse than ever, can anyone recommed a good brand of supportive underwear or something to hide my hanging skin? Thanks

I had my surgery june 11th, started out at 280 and now down to 248. Im so happy!! One more pants size then im out of a 20! YAY!

I always hear everyone say their feet get smaller when they lose weight, well I started out at 280, and now down to 248, still the same shoe size and not even a bit looser! I am trying to wear those cute small shoes, but I just cant, I think im gonna have fat feet forever!:cool2:

I used to have a thick thick head of hair, but the past 3 months or so it has fallen out really bad, every since my surgery. (jun 11th) But is there any kind of more multivitamins i can take to stop this?? I already take a multivit. and a b complex.
