Here we are folks day two of recommitment to my weight loss goals ~!~ Sunday was kick off day. I didnt do too bad with food, considering I only had a scrambled egg for Breakfast and some sausage. I drank a lot of Water through the day. The day went so quick I just didnt feel like eatting. I had some issues going on that caused me GREAT stress, and since my band is stress sensative, its prolly for the best that I didnt eat. I guess that was something like the beginning phase of after lapband surgery...I did get some exercise in.. actually it was unintentional but HEY it happened. I was involved with an animal rescue...and I helped two other people spend three hours chasing a cat around... I caught the cat, I felt like Rocky catching the chicken!!!!

Day two...I ate a lil more. I had a yogurt for breakfast and some coffee....lunch was salad and a Protein shake. dinner, baked chicken.

I gotta admit, I am still hungry.. I know its not time for a fill yet.

We will see what the rest of the week is like...

Thanks all for your support.

welcome back!

Hanging with you. I recomment every other day. I am 5lbs from my personal goal and just can't get there, I have come withing 2 but the 0 just won't roll over for me. I am acutally trying to eat more, I seldom feel hungry and often forget to eat. I think my body is now in startvation mode and my hair is drying out so I'm not getting the protein in. Maybe this is the leg of the journey you and I will take together. I never thought I would need to eat to make the weight move off.

Apparently I must do this as I have not lost a lb in over a month! 8.5cc in a 14cc band! Its driving me NUTS!!!

Hello Niterun, nice to "meet" you. I was within 25 pounds of meeting my goal and I became pregnant. I gained back everything I lost, except 20 pounds! So I am basically starting all over again. My daughter is now TWO years old. I was able to maintain my weight over those two years, but I didnt loose either....

Ric, nice to meet you as well~ ugh, that is fustrating~!~ I have a smaller band..and right now, i have NO CLUE how much Fluid is in my band. Sounds like you have hit a plateau.... How much weight have you lost prior to not loosing in the last month or so ??

I am so effin depressed tonight over weight and size and no clothes.....I went shopping for something nice to wear to work and all the clothes are like for women in their 80's (i am 39) and the cost so damn much! I had a cartigan sweater and a tank top in my hands and it was going to cost 100.00~!~ SICK SICK SICK SICK TO DEATH OF THIS BATTLE~!~

As far as keeping to the plan. Today was aight. Prolly not picture perfect according to the plan. I had eggs for breakfast... had some coffee... had a couple of snapple ice teas (diet of course).....then had some cheese ravioli for dinner. I just want to sooo badly dive head first in the bag of potatoe chips that are in the cupbord, and then wash it down with some ice cream....but i wont. i think my body is just going through detox so to speak and I have alot of stress in my life right now, like more than normal...but i will get through that too~!~!~!~!~!~!

23 pre op Diet and around 40 since being banded. I was banded on 30 June 2011
