Thank you - I have far more trouble trying to maintain!! I either lose or gain. I have been grazing lately, so I'm going back to a little more control. I actually got down 21 lbs below the weight I was in that pic - not healthy. But now I'm up 8 lbs from that weight. Ugh

Checking in to see how you're doing? I decided to go in for half a cc removed and what a difference it's made! WAY more energy - back to my yoga and running/walking. Did gain 3 pounds, but not worried about that......besides - it's hotter the heck here in Texas and very humid! I always gain in the summer just from water retention!

Had half a cc removed last week and I feel GREAT! Energy level is back up, exercise back up and attitude much improved. I got too caught up in "not" eating too much! I'm up 3 pounds, but I know that will come off as I'm able to get back up to speed with my exercise! Sometimes all your really need is a little removed!

I've made an appointment to get a small unfill! It's to the point I can't eat much of anything without sliming or hurting or having acid reflux. So, off I go next Tuesday. I'll let you know if causes me to start gaining weight! At goal now!

I see you just had your surgery in Feb - correct? Hope it's going well for you - have you had your first fill yet? It's quite a journey - learning how your band works for you! If you need any help or advice or a way to vent - just give me a shout!

Thanks - it's not been easy, but I'm proud I've stuck to it! I'm discovering that not many make it, which I find surprising -
