It has taken me two years and two months to lose 85 pounds. I never counted calories. Math makes me crazy.

Just remember the tortoise and the hare.

    Sick of the ups and downs on the scale!!! I really think the forum for plateaus is a good idea! I need a fill I think that is my problem! 1 more week!!! Things get stuck but I can eat my whole plate now if I let myself. I will also go long time without eating then I binge eat which makes me eat more at one time and too fast so it gets stuck then I get a pain in my neck and shoulder like gas pains...anyone ever experience this?!?

    Yes I have it's a nerve that tells us we over ate.,I think it's called a Vegus nerve, but someone please correct me if I spelled it wrong

    I was banded in Sept 2011 also, and have lost 50lbs but have been on a plateau for 3 months! I am so discouraged and frustrated. It seemed like the weight was coming off so easily before and now the same for 3 months! I am so excited to get the remaining weight off, but it just keeps hanging on to me! It makes me feel better that I am not the only one going through this!
