Problems
It is very hard to eat the right foods......I know. Nobody can really tell you what is wrong w/ you. You should just insist that your doc checks things again. Does yyour doc know that your over eating ect? You must be honest. I hope you get this figured out. For now you should try to stick w/ your plan & see if that does the trick. :-)

Hey there! We've all been there when we fall of the wagon. The point is you gotta get back on....before you gain more!!!! I have been banded over 1 yr & was stuck at a loss of 40-45 lbs for about 7 months. I felt like i had failed & I wouldn't find my motivation again. I HAVE!!! I am losing again!!! You have to stay in touch w/ your doc & on this sit too. Like another person said, PROTEIN 1st!!! Wishing you happier times & weightloss!!! :-)

PORK Butt in CROCK POt
I have seen pork butt cooked on cooking shows & it always looks soooo yummmmy. So, I saw one in the grocery store the other day & grabbed it. -pork butt 5-8 lbs -rub w/ brown sugar, garlic powder, pepper, few splashes soysauce. -BBQ sauce (Sweet Baby Rays Honey bbq sauce I like) in bottom of crockpot. -put pork in POT add more bbq & coat pork. i only put sauce about 1/2 way up pork did not have to cover. COOK LOW 10-12 hrs. I am cooking as we speak & it spells & looks mouth watering good!!! I'll have 4-5oz myself. my family will have pulled pork sandwiches w/ the extra bbq sauce. I may have bread too. :thumbup:
