Feeling weak. I have had low blood sugar now for a couple of days and am starting to feel it affect my daily life. I feel impatient and weak. Should I throw in a protein shake, or increase my calories? I find it hard to get 1,000 calories into my body some days. (Lost a total of 25 lbs in five weeks.) Suggestions?

Two and 1/2 weeks without my beautiful engagement ring. :'( My wonderful fiance is having a custom wedding band designed and they need my ring for the casting. I can't wait to get them back!

One week from the day before surgery and I'm so ready. Not feeling nervous at all (for now).

finally my rescheduled first fill is this week!!!

Lost a little over 10 pounds this first week post banding. Very excited!

I am down another 3 pounds this week! Yay me

my first week with the band not bad but have some discomfort

weight loss at stall, only 1 lb down this week. hard to be patient but I will be!!

Almost one week post op, feellike im healing well. NOT liking the hunger at the mo, and im craving actual food. !!!!

Counting my pre op and the three weeks today since surgery. I've lost 25lbs!

new week, new mindset

Busy week ahead

So i am really excited. I finall got a surgery date but i have to make sure all my paper work is in the next 2 weeks.

love this time of the month for me...I always drop weight on the 3rd &4th week of the month. Strange.

ugh...this not sleeping thing is starting to make me very angry....2different medications haven't helped much. I started a new one tonight but I was told it might take a couple of weeks before it really helps. I hope thats not the case...hoping more like a couple of days.

5 weeks post op been a bad girl must snap out of it, making some poor choices

Merry Christmas everyone! Have a wonderful day with all the ones you love! My little boy already went off to his dad's house for the week, I already miss him. But miss Hailey will keep us entertained today. Love to all my family and friends I can't spend time with today! And love to the ones I will be able to!

3 weeks until I am banded!!!

going on my 2 week post - op and i'm still hungry!

A week out and im feeling awesome..... Down 25lbs in three weeks....so Excited!!!

Iive been band for 5months, no fills and so far lost 35lbs.About two weeks ago for some reason when i eat in the morning my band fills tight and i cant get as much food down. But come lunch time im so hungry i cant wait to eat. Anyone else having this problem??

I am one week post op and down 17lbs. I am really excited. Good luck to everyone and keep up the good work.

Ok um I don't know ow to change this thing so I way myself in kg's. Ive had my surgery done for like 4 and a bit months I've lost like 24 kg's I've just had my band tighter for the 2nd time three days ago and am finding it extremely hard to keep food down

So far this week I have found $5.37 on the ground! What is it w/ people throwing their money to the ground!
