Hello every1, I was banded on July 17 and I had only lost 30 pounds...To me, that was slow but to others it was like a miracle! I was starting to look really good in clothes.

But now, I lost the good feeling. The holidays screwed me ova! Or should I jus say I screwed myself :thumbup: but anyways, Im determined to get right back on track! And I wanted to share my 1 min weight loss pics with every1 because maybe it will motivate some...And I really need some motivation too so if any1 has helpful advice, pics, or videos, please share them with others. Thanks alot

Loved it ! You are already beautiful ! Love your smile and attitude ! Can't wait to see progress video in the future!

and OMG! you already look great in a short dress......watch out in the future! You will have the guys trailing behind you like rats to the pied piper!

Thanks for the link. The good thing about the band is that it is there to use whenever you choose.

Good luck,

Mimi

Thanks Hummingbird! That's 1 of the things that's keeping me real motivated! Just thinking about how cute I'm going to look in sexy clothing! My bf is already jealous so just imagine when more eyes on me :thumbup: lol

thanks Mimi...I'm at 6.7cc Im hoping to lose weight quickly, Im not even hungry anymore. All of a sudden, I have no appetite and I can't finish the rest of my food...Is this the sweet spot? I hope so and I hope it stays like this forever! lol

I am slow going also I have only lost 37 o

Pounds. We go out to eat and I drink pop all of the time. I rarely excerice. If some one could help me through this it would. Be great

I really needed this today. I am 10 days post-op, nausea and most of the pain has passed and now I AM READY TO EAT!!!! I'm physically and mentally hungry and so help me, I don't know how much longer I can take shakes, sugar free pudding and broth! Seeing your progress over time does help! What confidence you obviously have and man, oh, man, I hope someday I can wear something like that animal print mini you've got on! MEEEEE-OW! Very sexy!

I had that problem as well..I kept on drinkin soda only because I knew nothing would happen. I mean, its going to mess up the band if we continue to drink it but while Im drinking it, nothing happens at the moment. Maybe that's something we both can start to change. As with excersizing, I dont really like doing it. But I find that when I go to the gym and take a class, it makes me feel better.

I totally understand what you are going through. I remember when I was post op I was in ALOT of pain so I didnt really care about eating. It wasn until the pain was gone, I would want to eat and I mean EAT!..Your going to be in "bandster hell" and honestly the only way you can get through this is with will power and determination. And I'm glad my video helped! Just keep thinking about the mini animal print dress that you will be wearing real soon! Good luck :confused:

I can give you an alternative to soda. Fill a 2 qt. pitcher with VERY HOT Water. Hang 4 reg. size Lipton tea bags in it and let it seep for a couple hours. Then add 5 sweet n low packets. Fill the rest of the pitcher with ice ........yum.
