Bandster Gal

Hey! I put the restriction chart up on my blog: Bandster Heaven If you click the image, you'll get a bigger version of it.

I finally posted my next video... it took me a few weeks.... In it I talk about my progress and answer two viewer questions: Why did I choose the LapBand? Why did I set my goal weight at 180? Go here to watch it: Bandster Heaven

I am enjoying Curves... as much as I hate exercise.... but I am having a hard time forcing myself to go... ergh...

Hey! Don't be too down...some people seem to lose slower in the beginning and hit the top at the sweet spot. I just started exercising, so that's not a big factor yet. I pack my food in a lunchbox every day and eat a cup every meal except for dinner - that's more like 2 cups. I drink a lot of Water and just try to keep my mind off food. I also try to ride the plateaus and understand that they are part of the 'game.' :-)

Hey! Nice to meet you! I got mine at Methodist too with Tom Jones. LOVED IT! It's my 2 month anniv...I'm down 43lbs. The clinic is fantastic. I'd advise going to their lapband support group... and all the others. Also stop by Obesity Help. Lots of good people on the MN forum... though few of us banders... but the people are super nice and we all get together a lot.

I like the smart machines. They are really nice. I hear it's great for beginners... but probably not so for experts. :-)

) lol lol

I forgot all about those suckers.... I used to have dimples, lol.

I just joined Curves. Seems to be wonderful. Has anyone else tried it and if so, did it help your weight loss? I need somewhere easy to start and that seems to be a great place.

What ever happened to this forum? Where is everyone???

Oh man, I can't...but someday it will happen!

Apparently I am getting in 87 grams of Protein....and only 559 calories...ergh. I need to eat a little more maybe.
