All of the responses are great! The problem is I do exercise, but I don't do it consistently. I try, but I always get wrapped up doing something else. I really don't know what to do once I get to the gym...does anyone have any exercise pointers or workout routines that have been successful.

So, I'm 31 married black woman ...lol and my mom is hounding me about having kids...I want some babies, but I'm still to big (in my opinion). I've been infertile for years and had a miscarrage 1 year ago today. Just wondering if you were faced with infertility and then had the band surgery and ended up getting pregnant...

I've been playing around with them for a few months... I've had 3 fills and 2 unfills...so I'm not sure what's up! :-) How about you.

I have been stalled at 300 pounds for nearly 3 months! I know that I fell off the bandwagon a few times, well actually more than a few times...but I feel like I am working harder with the band than I did without it. I had my surgery Feb 8, 2010. My starting weight was 357. So I've lost. But I am getting frustrated because I feel I should be so much farther now. Could someone tell me what they are eating...needing some guidance.

Hello Bandsters!! The last summer holiday is almost 1 month away!! I would like to look really cute this summer and post some pics on here so everyone can tell me how cute I look!! Anyone wanna join me! Here's what we will do... we will start a forum entitled "LABOR DAY CHALLENGE 2010" Each day we will post our menu of what we ate and exercise regimen... we can also post weight loss if any! I think having someone to be accountable to and making it fun will help all of us!! Let me know...The challenge will begin on Friday August 6th, exactly 1 month from Labor Day!!

:thumbup:Hey! I'm looking for some people to connect with in St. Louis. I have really hit a plateau and need to find someone that I can lean on and allow them to lean on me!! If you're out there let me know.

I typically wait 30 minutes. If I'm out to eat, I just won't order a drink until I finish my meal. I normally sit and chit chat with who ever I am out with and then drink right before we leave, if I am thirsty. The same for when I'm at home. I will not grab a drink until I am finished with my meal.

Wow! I was feeling the same way. I've had 4 fills and I still haven't reached the "sweet spot" yet. I have also lost motivation because of my own foolishness. I was banded 02/08/2010 and I've lost a little over 60 pounds! I still have a long way to go. The motivation and encouragement here is phenomenal. Thanks everyone!!

Hey everyone, I have decided to step my workout game up a notch. I have been at a complete standstill in weightloss for about 2 weeks. And I assumed it was because I wasn't working out. At first I was just dropping weight but here lately, I haven't been doing so good. If any of you workout at the gym, could you give me some good routines that you follow. Let me know machines, reps, cardio, strengh...the whole 9?? Thanks!

Ok fellow bandsters...I need some help...I am craving chocolate big time... What are some tips to war off cravings...what are some alternatives if I want a chocolate bar (like I just had:mad2:) I am doing so good. Don't want to sabotage my own success. I know how to walk away, but for some reason I just couldn't this time. Please don't judge me...I need some help lol. But seriously I do.

Hello, I am interested in tweeking my menu so I can maximize my weightloss. It seems like since I've had my last fill, I can only eat a little bit of food at a time. While I am not complaining, I want to be able to eat the right things...can you give me some ideas of what you're eating and how much weight you're losing. Right now, I'm averaging about 10-11 lbs per month.
