Well 50 pounds is wonderful. I just didn't realize how difficult this would really be myself. I was watching this show and they were discussing how surgery like ours only provides 25% of the weigh loss the other 75% is up to us. Ain't that something. I just don't know what I need to do to stay focused. I am loosing, don't get me wrong, but I realize that I have no difficulties eating junk, but healthy stuff, that is where the struggle is. I don't understand, because I am just not use to that. Its like the the only veggie I can really eat with no problem is green beans and spinach. I also realized I can eat mushrooms.

Tell me more about what you eat daily. I need some ideas. I am still struggling with the 45, I need to get to 50 like you. I would feel better with that at least. I have to loose at least another 10 before my next doctor's appointment.

Hey girl! How is your progress going? I am deep in the struggle. I just don't understand.

I remembered that you are in Maryland. Do you attend any support groups?

Okay, well that will cool. I had a fill last week, so now I am up to 4.5ccs. I am looking forward to 6cc. I heard that is the possible sweet spot. Things are tough though. Its kinda hard to get motivated, when there isn't a major weight loss. I have to keep reminding myself, that I am only suppose to loose 1/2 pounds per week. Sometimes I really don't even see that. I am praying and trying to stay focused.

Stay encouraged

How have you been doing?

Hi!

I just wanted to hear more about your personal story and how you have were able to start hiking and everything. I was banded in Nov. I have struggled with this getting my eating undercontrol and consistantly exercising. I would like to know your are doing with your weight loss.

Hello! Thanks for reaching out to me. I am feeling okay. I been trying to adjust to this soup thing. I am so excited, because I will be on pureed food by the weekend. I don't have a lot of pain, but I continue to have minor discomfort, especially when I am sleeping on my stomach or if I lay on my side. It only for a second though. Overall, all my wounds are healing nicely I am feeling great about this new journey. I won't be going back to work until Dec 1st.

How are you doing?
