I think it is still hard to lose weight with the band I am six months out and just getting a mind set that I have to eat the right food and basically still quote unquote be on a diet anyone who thinks this is easy I think it is not its still alot of work just vending

So true. The fact that I'm achieving it makes me a bit gushy about how wonderful and easy it all is, how its the best thing I've ever done.

But it is ME making those good food choices and avoiding the bad ones.

You have to work with the band, it is just a helpful tool, but you still have to do a lot of work along with it. I don't diet, I just watch my portions. I have dieted all my life, and it didn't do one bit of good!

Yes!!!!!!!!!! The band is hard work. I must say so myself. We must all work with the band. The band can not work by itself. Somedays are better than others for me. I am happy so far with my weight lost and would like to be a very successfull bandster and wish that for each of you.
