(yes i work out 2mile walks and 30 min arobics before bed)

i dont feel restriction im maxed on my fill (4cc) im walking 2 mile brisk walks ( fast paste) 3-4 times a week i would do more but i work 12 hour shifts. low fat cottage cheese w/ fruit or mix trail nuts, coffee boil egg (l) grill chicken salad or mixed salad friut dinner fish or chicken baked or boiled water and ice decaff tea in between crystal light as well, no periods ( hyster in '03) maybe i need to change up on menu it get hard raising 3 out of 5 kids on one income so i cant buy things when i run out all the time..maybe ishould go back to liquids for a week i dont know , my insurance wont cover me to see an dietrition or nutrtion so i feel im stuck

thanks now that you mention it i have slowed down on the drinking but that was coz i thought i was drinking to much Water thats way my weight gained. i love my iced tea and decaff coffee love my crytal light, but for sum reason was gaining, then loosing the gain it back

thanks i need that .....my body at times feels like a mule with a hard kick when it comes to dieting im at my max fill of 4cc in a 4cc band so i tryed that (eating in the morning) low fat cottage cheese w/ fruit coffee it holds my hunger til 130-230 afternoon but the scale is still going up then burn off then up its like im getting punked by my own scale....humm. well total pounds off 36 when i know it should be pushing 50 ( based on the weight i was loosing in the begaing)

has any of you drink slim fast since your surgery as a meal ? ( due to bad timing)

no i cant get a fill im at my max i got the 1st one 4 weeks after sugery then the last 1cc thr following week the doctor cant answer to why the regaining and then loosing but yet everything i did 2 months ago...still doing more exersice up to 2miles brisk walks weight lifting 5 pounds for arms ( dont wanna cause the port to flip by doing more or band slippage) so i dont know know whats the deal is BUT i didnt have this to gain if i was at a stand still no loose but no gain i wouldnt trip, but to gain 4-6 weekly then take 2 weeks to get it off then back up my gosh...

well im praying very hard for my skin after having 5 kids my arms tend to just hang in there like buff legs off a migit! yeah and the oldest child is 20 the youngest is 12 so if they been hanging around all this time i dont know about getting rid of them im just gonna keep on weight lifting (small amount) and do what i can give it a yr or 2 if not gone or at least sum great change then surgery here i come. my stomache is ok its shrinking i can tell my legs are ok as well but these big mama thro backs, hummm well as stated keep me in prayer!.. love ya'll
