Hi, I had my lap band surgery in february 2012. I am still the same weight I was on the day of the surgery. I can not tell u how disappointed and sad I am. I thought this was it. My chance to be normal. I am more depressed than I was pre-Op. Can you please tell me your routine? Do you really stick to one cup? Do you avoid fatty stuff? Do you exercise 5 times a week? I thought with this i would eat less without trying and lose weight. I know it sounds lazy but i truly thought this is how it works. I am looking forward to hearing your methods.

Kisspooh, have you considered going back to your doctor and working toward a fill? I can't wait for my first fill to let this band start helping me feel satisfied on less food than I used to eat. Is there a reason you never got a fill before?

Kisspooh, I agree that you should consider going to your surgeon and getting fills. This is still salvageable.

Good Morning and thank you all for the support. I will call for a fill. The first thing I did this morning was hop on this website. I feel inspired by your kind words. Going to get yogurt and fresh berries and add it into my app. Here's to a fresh start! Have a great day! !

Make it Greek yogurt so you get your proteins. I personally like Dannon lite & fit. Another thing is get your measurements. Sometimes they will give you inspiration when the scales aren't moving. Especially if you are exercising. I agree, this site has been a blessing for me too.

Just checking in. I stocked up on yogurt and fresh fruit. Also bought EAS protein shakes. Made it two days without snacking. Taking it one day at a tme. Its been raining like crazy and I haven't gotten any walking in. Live out in the country and have no malls for walking. Does anyone have any cheap ideas fir indoor fitness? Going to take one day at a time and hope for the best.

You have internet. Go to youtube and search Tracy campoli. She has some good workouts
