NeverGivinUpTeya got a reaction from myjourneyagain in Diet PillsI have. I noticed I lost the same with or w/o them. I can lose up to 2lbs a day when I am following the LB rules, water and exercise, eating 5 small protein based meals to keep full. Try that and see if you can stay full thru the day even with the fill you have. Example Meal: I have
Brk- Mocha Latte Shake
Lunch- Healthy Choice Meal minus the rice or pasta
snack- Protein based smoothie- I make my self w/ hawaiian punch single(lemon lime), strawberries, soy vanilla protein 1/2-1 scoop, ice water blend.
Dinner- 3-4 oz Lean Protein, 1/4c Veggie, 1/4 c complex carb and if Im not to stuffed I have a Weight Watchers Dessert and hour later.
Drink you 80 -100 oz of water a day and you should be good.
I have 6.2 cc in my 10cc band and some days more or less restriction.

NeverGivinUpTeya reacted to cls70 in Couch To 5KI have done the C25K a couple of times. The first time i did it I was about 250 lbs and 38 years old. There is nothing to be nervous about. You run at your own pace. I researched it quite a bit and the most common advice was "when you think you are going slow enough slow down even more". Don't be afraid to repeat weeks. If I ever felt like I struggled with a week I just repeated it. Don't be in a hurry, that's how you end up with injuries. Also, start with a good shoe. I went to a running shoe store where they look at your feet, look at the wear pattern on your shoes you are wearing, and watch you walk so they can tell you which shoe is best for your foot and your gait. The cool running website has a chat room for beginners and you can get great advice there. I have actually completed the program 3 times - unfortunately once I completed the program I quit running because I found running for 30 minutes straight boring. It helped me complete a sprint triathalon 2 years ago and a 5k mud run last summer. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with. One last thing, a supportive running bra is soooooo important. I bought an Enell and it made such a huge difference!

NeverGivinUpTeya reacted to armymom2012 in Diet PillsI would watch taking diet pills because most of them are very large and unless you crush them, you may get them stuck, plus they are not very tasty when you have to break them in half either. I know, I used to be a yo yo fanatic on pills trying to loose weight. They will also make you crash hard when you get off of them to, which usually means you will start craving again and go right back to bad habits because before you were dependent on them to supress that urge.
The whole point in getting the band is to train yourself to eat less, by measuring your food out and making smart food choices. It was never meant to be a miracle cure. I don't mean to sound harsh, because I know how frustrating it can be when you don't feel that it is helping you. It wasn't until last week when I finally got up to 6cc's that I noticed anything at all. The whole reason I have lost weight so far is because of self control, tracking my food and exercise and it wasn't easy by far. Now I understand what people mean by restrictions, before I wasn't sure what they meant exactly. Talk to your doctor and they will probably tell you to come in for a fill. I was told by my doctor that if you get a fill and it doesn't feel right, too much or too small if you get back in withing the week, there is no charge to fix it. Other doctors may be different but it's worth asking. Hang in there.
