You know it's interesting that you are counting calories. I know that seems weird to say, but my nutritionist told me not to count calories but Proteins for the first couple months. I was suppose to have around 60 grams of Protein a day, which mostly came from dinner for me. When I did that I noticed that I was more balanced when I ate. Combine that with liquids and some exercise and you have a good deal going. Now for me after time I went back to my old routine of counting calories and had a major plateau so I think I will go back to basics.

Well today is the first day I have ever PB'd. I've had food stuck before and have felt quite a bit of pain during it, but never pb'd. It wasn't a good feeling especially since after I was still feeling quite a bit of pain. I've been in a rut for several months now. Not gaining weight but also not losing it. Quite frankly I feel like people are looking at me and thinking "Yup another one of those lazy people who thought weight loss surgery would fix it." The problem is that I'm not lazy and I have tried to fix it. I have been using food to make me feel good for so long that now it's so hard to let it go. It's hard to let the weight go. I feel miserable being overweight. I'm going to start with my liquids again today, because I don't want my band to get too irritated. I'm going to try harder and snap out of this rut I'm in. Going back to the basics. It's been over a year and I've lost 38 pounds. Ugh it needs to be more. I need to feel more accomplished than that.
