I've heard of people who are weight loss resistant and often wondered in the past if I was... Well, I'm REALLY starting to believe it!

I'm 6 months post-opI have been exercising my butt off for several months now. I eat 2/3 less than before.My weight loss has totally stopped, besides the slight fluctuations, it always goes back. I can't get my weight under the 220 mark and it's driving me crazy. I walk a couple miles 3x a week instead of going to the gym now that it's warm out and I have an ab machine that I do daily. Would gaining muscle really cause you to lose weight for months?

Also, a couple weeks was the first time that I got food stuck. They checked my band and found that 2cc disappeared from my band...crazy huh? So they refilled my 9cc band up to 8cc again. I still feel restriction but maybe I need to go back and have more...to the point where I can barely get anything down? I normally lose about 3-4lbs the first week after a fill and lost nothing after my last fill. I'm wondering if this sweet spot even exists...at least for me.

Anyone else experiencing no weight loss for extended periods?

Omg....so much information. I admire some of you that excercise as much as you do! I thought I was doing good but in comparison to some of you...WOW...I'm doing nothing. :ohmy: There isn't enough time in the day nor do I have the stamina to up my exercise at this point.

I never thought about eating MORE. That just scares me! I feel like I'm eating all the time because the band only holds me for a couple hours. Perhaps I'll try weight watchers again....I'm just afraid that I wont be able to eat as much as the plan calls for. All I know is, this sucks and something's got to give.
