Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor looking for help

[want_so_bad 0]

i was banded october 2007. i had lost 40-45 pounds slowly, then had to have an unfill and have regained 15-ish pounds. i also have had a hysterectomy in the time i was empty. i am having a hard time getting back into things.

i am looking for someone to be accountable to, for advice, support and a good kick in the butt to get me going again.

thank you.

Hi "WSB"- I just returned from my "vacation" from LBT. I was banded a day before you, and we were in the "October" month group together. I know that the weight loss has been a challenge for you since the beginning. Right now I am in a bit of a "slump" myself. But I am refusing to give up and I can see neither have you! We will get to our goals I just know it.

amy- you are right, i have struggled through this. but nothing before compares to the struggles i am having now. i just need to get my head cleared again and my whole being back into this. i know it will work when i am ready to work it. and i want to, i just am not. does that even make sense? i am feeling hopeful today so that is a good thing. i think some of my problem may be hormones. i am going to the doctor today to see about getting them adjusted. seems like i was doing fine with what they had put me on after the hysterectomy and then BAM, hit a brick wall.

my fill is a whopping 3 weeks away! i have to hold out until then. make better food choices. exercise on a more consistant basis. this morning i also got a big kick in the motivational rear! my sister in law started working out yesterday...i have this weird competitive thing w/ her...no excuses now! i cant let her look better then me, haha..but whatever motivates me works for me.
