Looking for a buddy

Hello,

I got my lapband back in March of 2010 when I first started I weighed in at 360 now I seem to be stuck between 300 and 317.

I'm 19 and attending college in Texas. My current boyfriend is very supportive and is trying to help as much as he can but honestly I find it frustrating that some things he just can't understand.

At first I was doing really well but then I began to slip off the band wagon and things have really just gone down from there. I do want to get back in the swing of things but between school and looking for work and having so much going on I simply haven't had the mental capacity to sit down and realize what I need to start doing again and what needs to change asap. I believe I'm at 8CC's right now? Not completely sure to be honest I haven't gone to the doctor in a few months because of all the hectic things going on in my life.

If anyone is willing to help and be a buddy I'd really appreciate it. Especially if you've gone through the lapband process while still in college.

Thanks for reading!

- Lauren.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
