I'll probably put up the same goals as for March - 10+ lbs and 20+ days of exercise... :clap2:

My goal is to continue walking 5 days a week and move up to 3 miles each time. Which I did today for the first time!!! YEY for me. I want to lose 15 pounds this month!!!!!!!!! Please God let me achieve this goal!

My goal I think is gonna be 12 lbs. I didnt lose any in March at ALL until the last 3 days than I lost 4 lbs! Probably b/c I didnt eat b/c of stress, I am eating again and hoping I dont gain the 4 lbs back! I would like to be at 190 by the end of the April. I also havent been exercising since my daughters accident. I missed about 4 days being out of town but I was walking alot then, came back exercised one day then my daughters accident and I havent been back. I am staying at my moms this week for a few days so I cant go to my gym, but she goes to Curves and I may try there. I dont really want to leave my daughter though,

Im around but I couldnt find this thread. Dh is coming home tomorrow and hopefully I can get back on track I think I am going in for another fill soon too. I am starting to be able to eat more. I need to do my measurements again. Has anyone here measured or are we all going by weight?? But all in all I feel really good I cant believe what a difference 28-30 lbs makes as far as how I feel!

I have been looking for this thread. I haven't lost anything since the first month. But I have my 2nd fill on Monday and I have high hopes that I will start to lose again. This is frustrating!

[Luvbnanurse 1]

I want to get under 200 and exercise more.

[Oregondaisy 2,020]

Can anyone who has had more than one fill tell me if they started losing after the second fill? I am so afraid that I will be like some of the bandsters that I have read about saying in a year they only lost 20 lbs. The first fill did absolutely nothing. I have to watch every bite or I would have gained the weight that I lost after being on the liquid diet, post surgery.

[Banannie 0]

Denise, it gets WAY WAY WAY easier with more fills! Don't be shy, get another! You shouldn't do this on willpower - if you could do it on willpower alone, you wouldn't have gotten surgery!!! I've had 4 fills and one slight unfill, and am going in Monday for another fill.

[Oregondaisy 2,020]

I can't believe you were banded 2 weeks before me and have lost 62 lbs. I really want that fill. Can you tell me if you have any problems with food sticking, or not being able to eat certain things now that you are filled more. I hate it so much when food gets stuck, but I really want to lose weight. It scares me because if food gets stuck with barely anything in there, I am afraid I will start pbing. I haven't done that yet.

[Banannie 0]

Right now NOTHING gets stuck - but I don't eat bread, Pasta, rice or potatoes. I haven't PB'd even once yet. I semi-slimed once right before I got my unfill when I took WAY too big of a bite of a carrot. Even when I was a touch overfull I really only got the "golf ball" feeling in my chest when I didn't chew enough or took too big of a bite.

[Oregondaisy 2,020]

I don't eat rice or potatoes, bread, etc either. It's meat that gets stuck. I think it's because I take too big of a bite too. I have always eaten too fast. It's really hard for me to remember to slow down. It is that golf ball feeling when something is stuck. I hate it. I remember to slow down immediately if that happens! It's hard to remember to chew until it's liquid too.
