Hi all,

I have been struggling for the past 3 weeks. I have been making poor choices and seems as if I am letting my old self back in. I DO NOT want this to happen... I need to get back on track... I need to find it within me again as I am too newly banded to be self destructing already... Any tips on getting back on track before I do some damage to my band...

thanks

1. Look at how much weight you have lost and how good it feels .2. When you go to eat that wrong thing, stop and ask yourself is it really worth it, do I want to eat this more then loosing weight? 3. Go for a walk instead of eating 4. up your protein and water intake 5. go see your Dr. 6. go back to basic 7. remember why you got the lap band and the work you had to do to get it.

agree with Brenda. It is so easy to get off of track, it is the bad habits that got us to where we were. but that does not define you at all. i get off track too, but pick myself back up and get back on track. you would not be human if you fell off the wagon

you can do this!

Thanks... I am going to try the 5 day pouch test and start all over... starting tomorrow... today will watch what I do but tomorrow is a new day...

I am fairly new as well, 10 weeks post-op. I have not been making the best choices the past 2 weeks and I am determined to get back on track. What is the 5-day pouch test?

I would recommend going to a support group meeting. That always helps me.
