    Bracchus reacted to acolebr1 in Soooo... Who's Losing Weight Without Exercising?   
    Even though i have lost weight without formal exercise. My 2 yr old grandchild keeps me moving. Some funny things are starting:one day i was walking and i could feel myself walking different, then i realized, my thighs were not rubbing...lol. Then while getting dressed for church i put on a suit that used to be really tight and my belly poked thru the button holes....lmao. when i put it on and looked in the mirror.... it looked like i had on someone elses clothes......

    Update: went to my Dr today and I've dropped 8 lbs since my last weigh in three weeks ago. YAY ME!! he also offered the same advice that many of you gave and told me that he was proud of me (sniff). I feel better now.

    Well, with saying that I think that is the one of the benefits of having the band is that even when we lose track for whatever reason,we can hop right back on that horse and steer in the right direction.
    Great attitude! I think this time you are heading for success!!!

    In truth, I could have posted this in almost any of the forums on LapBandTalk but thought I would just start here.
    My name is RT. I was banded way back October 2009. I had three fills from the time of my surgery and then my insurance ran out in March of 2010! I had lost about 40 lbs at that time but never felt any significant restrictions. I kept telling my Dr. but he still would do small, incremental fills.
    Well - lo and behold, there were several other tragedies to hit in my life over the next couple of years and, needless to say, I regained most of the weight I had lost (stress is a B!tch)!
    Finally - this year things started to turn around and I was able to resume my adjustments. I had my first fill since March 2010 on September 11th 2012 and I am glad to say that I have already lost 19 lbs.
    I don't know how common this story is but I have refocussed myself and have made a new commitment to get treatments no matter what the cost and stick to a healty eating lifestyle.
    Wish me luck - I will keep in touch.
