I hope it is not to late to join this challenge. I have been banded almost a year and have been stuck at the same weight for about 3 or 4 months I really need to get back on this site more because I noticed that was when I was lossing more weight. The last half of 2010 was very stressful (my grandpa passed away after being very sick and in the hospital for a little over a month, then two weeks after he passed we found out my grandma had cancer, then a classmate of my daughter passed away during a high school football game...I could keep going but you I think you can see my point).I really got caught up in taking care of everyone else and stopped focusing on me at all. Now we are planning a surprise trip to Walt Disney World in June and I really would like to see some more weight come off before we go.
