So, I realized I was being ridiculous. I was doing nothing right. I wasn't eating healthy...and the majority of the time I just wasn't eating. I haven't been exercising and I've been stuck at an 85 pound weight loss for about three months. I'm done feeling sorry for myself because I need to get my butt back in gear. I did not pay nearly $15,000 out of pocket just to sit here and be disappointed in myself! I need to get back on track because I'm still at the point that whenever I look at my body in the mirror I cringe a little. I'm not okay with that! So it's all or nothing. I need to get off my lazy butt and take care of myself!

You guys are the greatest support. Thank you all so much

:smile2: This keeps happening. I keep losing determination. I've lost 75 pounds but I feel like that just isn't good enough. As of June 11th I'm a year out and I feel horrible. I'm eating wrong when I eat...most of the time I don't eat at all. I'm not working out anymore....I just suck right now. D: Someone please give me some good advise, I want to get back on track and stay there but I feel as if I have lost my support from everyone. I was way too young for this.

So, I went to prom on April 16th 2010 and wore a dress that was a size 16! My prom that was May 1st of last year, I wore a size 22 dress. Pretty happy about that.:smile:

I'm worried. I got banded on 6/11/09 and it has been 8 months since then. I have only lost 56 pounds and I'm losing determination quickly. I don't want to give up and I'm not but I feel like everything I'm doing isn't right. I need to get a fill but every time I do, I get over filled and it hurts like hell. I'm getting back into working out, I was sick for a week and had to stop. I'm trying to create healthy meal plans for the week but even when I do..they end up falling through. I'm scared that my skin isn't going to snap back and I think that's why I'm sub-consciously keeping myself from doing the right thing. I know that being healthy is more important than vanity but I'm 18! I've been made fun of for being overweight for as long as I can remember...I don't want to be made fun of for having loose skin too. I just need to get my head on straight. That's why I came back to lapbandtalk, at least here I can get good advice and support. Not even my doctors and nurses help me anymore. I feel abandoned. :thumbup:

I live in Lakewood and I was banded 6/11/09 by Dr. Snyder

So I decided to buy a scale today, one that is supposed to be very accurate. When I brought it home and tried it out it said that my weight was 268.6. As of 5 days ago I was 280. I have lost 11.4 pounds.

I had to be on all liquids the day before surgery and that was it.

6/11/09 I got banded on that day. My surgeon was Dr. Michael Snyder from Denver, Colorado. I'm 17 years old and I am finally coming down from being completely overwhelmed with the decision that I made. I start mushie foods on this upcoming Wednesday and I can't wait. This is a very exciting time in my life and I'm very proud of myself for taking this big step towards my success.
