I am in the same boat. I'm up and down the same 5lbs for the last 3 1/2 years, since getting banded and losing about 60lbs. I'm at the low end of that 5lbs right now, after my fill a little over a week ago. I've not lost anything in 4 days now, so am going to work on getting in more Protein and hope that helps. I need to make sure I'm getting enough Water also.

Sometimes I feel our body's say enough is enough

I think my last 24 lbs are a little too attached to me. I really would like for them to part ways with me VERY soon!

I'm slowly getting it off. I originally set my sites on 138 cuz that would put me at 25 BMI. I later raised it to 145 cuz I feel ok where I am and jus want a nice stopping point. I'm averaging less than a lb a week. I was thinking about a fill , but just about decided against it. I do a week of almost solid Proteins each month and drp 2 lbs during that week.

I want to be 145 but I am struggling to get there

I think my biggest problem is my work and sleep schedule. I work nights 7p-7a and am having a difficult time working out an eating and workout schedule. Frustrated, but not giving up!

Yes it does, Sandy. Because I don't stay on my "work" sleep schedule when I'm off. Otherwise, I'd never see my husband and sons! If I workout after work, before I go to bed, then I'm too wound up to go to sleep. If I wake up earlier to fit in a workout before work, then I get sleepy during my shift...then I'm MISERABLE fighting to stay awake! And let me NOT get started on my meal schedule!!! Smh...

I just started kickboxing at a karate place and I have been running the other days

That sounds like a great idea. I need something to work. I'm incorporating weights more now and cardio. We shall see, I hate this muffin top!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
