Ladies i am in need of some support in order to move forward. I've had my first fil and will need another one for certain because I'm not staying full. I havent lost anything in weeks and I am really frustrated because I am doing everything that I am supposed to and am in my mind right now not making progress.

I really could use someone who will be a support system, especially since we don't have support groups in my area.

Feel free to write anytime, I am trying to get some good support systems going. Be patient with your self, you are not in your green zone yet so your not restricted. You should try eating slow, setting down each bite after taking. avoid high carb sugar, and empty calorie liquides. you must burn more calories then you intake. So if you do make mistakes make up with exercise.

I would love a good support system too. Please try not to get discouraged - remember this isn't bypass, it isn't a quick fix but it can be a lifelong one. And many people have mentioned it takes several fills to get restriction... I know that's so frustrating but keep up the good work and the results WILL come.

Hey ladies we are all here to support each other! This is no easy road we have chosen to travel! Eating is an addiction!!! Every night when I lay down I check in here....kinda like my AA. All addicts need a support system!

Hi my name is Amy and I'm a over eater

Thank you ladies so much for your encouragement, believe me it is quite the uplifter. I look forward to getting to know each of you, and look forward to hearing your progress along the way.

So today was a better day, I didn't feel quite so alone today and that really helps. I haven't told but a handful of people about my band and sometimes it's a bit of a burden to keep to yourself. I have a very small (like 5 people) support group if friends and my husband who actually know, the decision not to tell just worked for my situation. I'm glad though that I can still find support with those who are actually going through the process as well.

even though I'm not a woman I have been succsessful and would like to help Anyone who's struggling or has questions so if you feel comfortable getting help all you need to do is ask..
