So what's up? What seems to be holding you back?

Go on to my blog to find some "inspiration"?Sandi's Banded Living — My Lapband Weight Loss Success Story

Let me know how I can help?

Hey Sandi! Thank you for replying. I am looking at the numbers everyone else has lost, with their surgeries being after mine. It's depressing! What am I doing wrong? What foods should I be eating? What am I missing?? I was so excited to get to 199 after being 230, that now I feel like it should continue to fall off 4-1/2 months later and it's not!

First and foremost- congratulations- You have lost about 10 lbs per month and that is no small task. Well done! Now, you may want to take a good hard look at what you are eating. It's not what you should it, it's what you are eating. do you have any idea how many calories and how much protein you are getting? Are you drinking at least 64 ounces of fluid? Are you exercising? Are you eating a little more now than the first 3+ months? all this needs to get taken into consideration. Send me an email with a days food journal and let's see what you're choices are like.

I'd love to help you, but them comes form interaction between us, not just me telling you what you "should" be eating...Hope this makes some sense.
