LapBandit...Welcome Back! If we can't admit our slumps to each other, who can we? That's what this group is all about...support! Good times and bad, better and worse, up or down the ##$## scale. (Pardon my french...lol) You'll be back down in no time. I'm stuck on a slow loser's course and trying to figure out what I'm doing so the scale barely moves. I think next I have to be aware of how long I eat. I think I'm grazing slowly which is allowing me to eat more. So I'm going to go for the 20 minute mark and then quit. See what happens then. I'm leaving on my Sturgis trip in 11 days and wanted to be down 11 pounds but I know that's not happening. I'll be thrilled with 5 now.

Anyway, we all have setbacks which is the nature of the beast. The key is in beating the beast back at it's own game!

You can do it!!!!!!!! :whoo:

Thanks for the support everyone! This has always been my favorite thread...I've gotten lots of support, encouragement and friendship from you all over the past year or so and it means a lot! Yes...this is a tough journey and if I've learned anything over the past few weeks it's that a strong support system is so important to success.

Welcome back, Lapbandit! Add your name and STATS to the July challenge. ANY loss posted by the end of the month will prove to you that you're on your way back. A gain of 22 pounds is nothing compared to what you've lost so Celebrate your success and put the gain in past history where it belongs.

LapBandit, I am SOOO GLAD you're back :confused:

I am right where you are. I figure I've only gained about 5ish lbs. It's hard to tell because my Water retention is fluctuating sometimes 7lbs from one day to the next. Gotta log real quick I will follow up my thought a little later

OK sorry bout the double post but I had to go on break. I have been so bad, just eating every bit of junk that came my way. I have gret restriction, but that doesn't stop me from grazing and eating sugar like it's goin out of style. I need to get back on track but my head is getting in the way. How do I get the motivation back? I am truly ashamed and embarrassed at what I have been eating but I don't know how to stop. I have tried to "be good" but I fail withing 24hrs. If anyone has any ideas that'd be great, but something tells me this is an internal battle. Well I will definitely check in daily from now on, maybe that will go a long way.

Have a great day everyone :confused:

Hey Molly!!!!!!!!

We need to find our source of motivation again, you know?

I think I'm finding it slowly...it's my health. Since I've been "off the wagon" I feel like crap and my back is starting to hurt again. If I want to feel healthier then I've got to get back to what I was doing before I started being bad.

We'll get there! I am going to really try from now on.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
