I started really watching what I was eating again back in February, and couldn't lose a pound no matter what I ate. I met with the nutritionist and we figured I needed to change things up a bit.. also a suggestion from a post lap bander too..well, it worked.. I was in a rut, eating the same things almost every day, yogurt, Cereal, salad, chicken.. Now I eat low sodium and fat Soup, Protein shakes, cottage cheese, lean deli meats along with the other stuff and dropped 7.5 lbs!!! in 3 weeks.. One of the big things was eating a little something between lunch and dinner..

but....

my biggest accomplishment is getting my stress and worries under control. I don't know how it could make that much difference, but for 3 weeks I have been seeing a therapist and I am so much more in control of my emotions I feel different. Life is far from stress free or perfect, but being able to sleep at night and not think of a hundred things that are going on is so much better.

I have one more meeting with the therapist before she signs off for me, and said she would be there if I ever needed to see her again, and that is very important to me. I want to be able to check in should the need arise. I'm not even upset that it has moved things back for me anymore, it has made me feel stronger!

Good for you! :cursing:)
