hello junies I have not posted in forever i am down 60 pounds since June 16th but stuck here cant loose an ounce. My exercise has dropped way off and i think i try to "beat the band" occasionally. i just had my 3rd fill (6 cc in a 10cc band) feel tighter but need to concentrate on getting back on track and not what i can slide by my band. Anyone else have this kind of trouble? Seems like everyone posting has had great success. Maybe i just need a kick in the butt.....

checking in to vent I am up a pound this week, had a fill already 1cc,i am not particularly hungry but probably eat more than i should My total wt loss is 40 since surgery June 16 I know in my head that is good. i walk 2-3 times a week in addition to the gym 3 x a week i called surgeon, still waiting for call back i chart all my food every day on the daily plate,not going over 1300 cals/day is this bandster hell?

I also had my first fill last week due for another next week feel good no great restriction though I feel like i could still eat more than i should good news thought down 38 pounds since starting preop diet June 2nd i don't post often but i read daily to keep up with everyone's progress i have a hard time keeping my commitment to the after surgery nutrition and exercise class. ( I have a 12 week commitment) but because of work am finding it hard to get there I do go to the gym with my daughter a few times a week i guess i am feeling guilty about not keeping up my end of the deal with the classes, but i do have to work! anyway keep up the good work everyone cathi
