OK here we go so I had the surgery four years ago . I have a two-year-old toddler now. so I lost 120 lb before I had the baby . Now I gained 89 pounds back and I can't seem to lose it Please someone help

Well, it's back to the same ol game. Get a tiny fill if you can, eat protein, veggies and fruit count calories and work out. When I had my baby I did STROLLER STRIDES best workout with a baby ever! All the Mommies are in the same boat, trying to get the baby weight off...you should google it and see if there is one in your area.

Get back into the program, Mama! It's amazing proof that the surgery worked wonders for you, having lost 120 pounds before baby came along. Congratulations. Woo! The band alone could not have done that, so this proves you had the strength, willpower and determination to get the job done.

Babies mess us up (mostly in a good way, of course!) but our poor bodies change so much. So. Now that 2 years has passed, it's time to get back into the habits you had pre-babe to kick-start your weight loss.

• Small portions on a small plate
• Protein and fibre should take up most of your plate!
• Avoid Pasta, bread, wheat, pop, sweets and slider foods like sugar-saturated ice cream and pudding
• Small bites, sloooooooowwwwwwww chewing.... Remember that the more you chew, especially when you start with protein, the quicker your brain is to register satiety.
• Remember the 20/20/20 rule: Roughly 20 bites per meal, chewed 20 times each, limit your meals to 20 minutes in length
• STOP eating when you get a sense you've had enough - leave food on your plate!
• Review Dr. O'Brien's "8 Golden Rules of Lapband"! (Google it if not familiar)

You've done it once, and you can do it again, Jackie-o! Go girl!

You might want to go back to see your doc and your nutritionist. Don't let any negative feelings about the weight gain hold you back. It's their job to help you. They might decide to give you a fill or they can work with you on ways to help you start losing again.

Good luck, let us know how you do!
