I'm still here! And I am in the same boat. Slow going but not gaining! I must admit that I have not been putting in the effort that I should. The holiday's screwed me up and I've had a very hard time getting back on track. My eating is getting better (had a fill 2 weeks ago and am very tight) but still struggling with the exercising thing. Good to hear from you. Hopefully others will check in too! Blessings, Sarah -
I'm going to check it out now!

I'm discouraged myself. Old habits are hard to break. Each day is a new day. I keep telling myself that. I've been stuck on 210 for what seems like weeks......I am certainly glad that I have not gained but I just wish I could start losing again!

The good Lord gave you a body that can stand most anything. It's your mind and motivation you have to convince. You must begin to think of yourself as becoming the person you want to be. Let that person who is inside come out and see the world. Take it one day at a time. Happy Holidays. PS: Update me on your progress

How are you doing with your band? It has been so long since I posted!! I am down 31 lbs. and have had 4 fills; I now have 8cc of my 14 cc band filled. The last fill about 6 weeks ago put me in the "green zone". I am not hungry all the time, I eat and I get full, but I have to eat slowly because I have much more restriction than ever! Getting banded was the best thing I ever did for myself!!

Sandie - I am at 4.5 cc. Doc said that this should be all I need unless when I lose weight the band gets loose. Jenn - I don't keep track of my calories. I know lots of people do but I never wanted to do that before my surgery and I certainly didn't want to do it after...LOL....too lazy I guess. Yesterday for B'fast I had a cup of coffee and a scrambled egg with cheese (takes me a little while to eat the egg now....gets stuck easier). For lunch I had homemade cheesey potatoe Soup with (probably too many) crackers and a SF Jello pudding cup. Last night for dinner I had 2 pieces of thin crust pizza (with Bacon, Sausage and Mushrooms). Still struggling with getting all of my liquids in but I am certainly drinking more than I did pre-surgery! BTW - You look awesome!

31.2 pounds down to be exact! I think I'm quite possibly at my SWEET SPOT! I have some major restriction going on! Sorry I havent' been around much lately. I have been popping on to check up on everyone but haven't taken the time to post lately! Looks like everyone is doing well! YEAH August bandsters! Blessings, Sarah

Guess I am going to cancel my Oct 30 surgery!

OH....please don't give up! You deserve to lose weight and feel better about yourself. Call your surgeon and be honest that you are struggling but please don't give up! Blessings to you, Sarah -
WOW! You look awesome! Great job! I am almost 3 months out and I love reading stories like yours. They are so inspiring! Way to go!

Weight loss is kinda slow. I'm down 28.4 pounds. I measured last week and I've lost a total of 11 inches. Haven't been too faithful on the excercising but I bought a kettel bell workout DVD yesterday and plan to try that out tonight.
