Coming to terms with the slow progress

  • Popular Post

here is my lapband adventure. First and foremost everyones adventure will not be the same. I got band a few years ago and it was empty and I had only gotten one fill. Did not make much progress at all. Now everything I have read told me I needed to keep up on my fills...that was my fault. Now this year I got back on track got two fills and have lost 20 lbs. in two months! The lapband is a tool and the process is slow and steady if you follow the rules. Yes you will have stuck episodes if you eat too fast or too much I have learned this. Also big news...I learned scales suck....don t be a prisoner to your scale. Exercise is helping a lot...but not everyone has to exercise to lose...the ones that don t have to I am a bit jealous of :) But don t think this is a quick fix or your going to drop 50 lbs in a month or two... cause u will set yourself up to fail and then lose hope like I did. Get a year calendar one of those wall ones and track your progress on it no matter how slow it is. that way you will see progress in your journey. Good Luck and don t be your worst enemy be your own Cheerleader!!

P.S. yes there are spelling mistakes and grammatical errors!! Get over it! :)
