I am really trying 2 stay positive about this whole weight lost process thing . How do i ignore that the weight is not coming off when im counting calories, protein, n im execersing . Its tearing me apart bc i know its only a tool but i dnt think mine is working. Then im reading how everyone else is losing n being happy. I hear be patient. Well when u try something new n u see a difference that gives u motivation 2 keep going it gives u hope that u can do it. But when u dnt see the results or the weight go down what do u have... I have tears, fears, frustration, n headaches . I go 2 the doctor 2morrow im going 2 show him my food journal n request fill number 2 :-( tiffany

I know exactly what ur going through. im counting calories,and exercising. one day im down 2lbs the next its back up. uuugh Im so frustrated bc Im really tryin n it doest seem 2 wrk. I see my doctor 2morrow n Im going 2 request a second fill bc i can eat more than 1/2 cup of food. they say the band works with solid food n nt liquids y am I nt losing Im still at a standstill still n bandster hell. How do I escape it?? If I dnt eat my body goes n starvation mode then when I do eat im counting Protein n calories n its like a seesaw up n down but never down down. It makes me want 2 cry... :-( tiffany

I had no idea that all that was going on n ur life may God give u peace n strength 2 endure. Im so sorry 4 ur lost n injuries. U have been such an inspiration 2 me with all ur encouraging words n advice. I guess the saying is true dnt complain because there is always someone worse off then u. I know how u feel about the sweets its nt easy just hang in there like u tell me. it will get better. I try 2 keep myself busy 2 buy cleaning the snow off the car n side walk. I will keep u n ur family n my prayers. one day at a time

ok now I am starting to eat more during each meal while im counting calories and protien. do u think that it is time for fill number 2??? I dont think that im losing like I should be and yes Im exercising even though I just started this week. At wht point will I start losing between 2-3 lbs a week, do I ave to wait for retriction in order to loose weight???:tt1::eek::eek:

Idk about the smoking, n yes the do fill ur stomache with gas

thank u n I will let u know what I find out

Im craving chocolate with nuts like turtles, or hershey with almonds. Any healthy candy with nuts out here that I can eat? Any suggestions??? THANKS IN ADVANCE

wow congrads can u send me a message with u calorie intake and what ur diet u follow on a daily bases. n what type of exercise do u do. how many fills have u had n 4months? that is very exciting news 2 hear

how many fills have u had n r u exercising if so what r u doing? how much weight have u lost. I had one fill n no restriction now so I can eat n I wasnt counting calories. hopefully the next fill will give me restriction n the weight will come off.

do u think that until I have good restriction or another fill the weight wnt come off?

thanks 4 the info i think that I wasnt eating right nt enough calories or Protein. now counting calories n protein along with exercise that damn scale should move...

hey friend whats ur calorie intake??

how many calories do u take n on a daily bases? Do u go over or under 1200, 1300, or 1400 calories?

Im learning to I knowhow to cook its just all the countin and measuring that gets on my nerves. my doc told me to eat a piece of meat the size of the palm of my hand and on the rest of the saucer it should be veggiess.... he advised me to take a bite or 2 of meat chew chew chew then a fork of veggies then wait 10 mins (with good restriction) u should be full but if not take another bite... hopefully this can help if u like we can can share recipes when we get them Im open to it

wow thats great how many fills have u had so far??? I guess when I get real restriction I will lose it to... Keep up the good work... when u were too tight did u get unfill or just waited it out

hey dragonflylover how r u doing? Have u had a fill yet? R u at a standstill with ur weight. Thanks for the encouragement

thanks. My doc gave me more options 2 try as well nt just the egg mcmuffin. He told me 2 take a bite or 2 of the sandwich or what im eating then wait ten mins i should feel full if nt after 10mins take another bite. What is ur daily diet like what r u eating? How much have u lost since surgery?

wow thats great what r u doing? is that 7lbs lost n a week, or 2? what r u eating?
