Even though I haven't been banded long and feel no restriction, there is no way I'm going to let this weight thing beat me any more. If I have to live on 600 calories and drink gallons of Water until my weight gets back down- so be it.

My rant for the day. :frown:

Good for you!

You go, Pizzaman and I'll be following right behind you!

woohooo!!!!! half of this battle is the mind and sounds like you've got yours under control :frown:

wombat

Yeah! That's the way I think you have to feel at first (especially before you have restriction).

Can I just tell you that you are cruel for having the word "pizza" in your name?! lol :frown:

You can do it!!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

The weather will be getting better soon (hopefully!!) and you'll be down more weight and it will make it so much more enjoyable to walk, run, ride a bike, do yard work, etc ... <o:p></o:p>

Look forward to the nice weather and activities!! That's what I have been doing to stay motivated!<o:p></o:p>

I've been here over 2 years and I'm going to Splish Splash this summer damn it!! lol<o:p></o:p>

I hear ya. You are well on your way. Good luck!

That's an attitude that will make you successful.

never give up!

Don't do that! If you were just going to be stubborn and miserable, you wouldn't have gotten the band! Let it do what it's suppose to do. If you have no restriction, get a fill, if it's not enough, get another. You'll get to your "sweet spot" and it will all fall into place, and things WILL be easier!
