I am back after having a baby - no restriction - cannot lost baby weight!

Hey all

I had my second son June 2, 2008. I started my pregnancy about 268 and delivered at 288. I am still at 288!!!!!!!

My band is 4cc and filled to capacity - I have no restriction and am eating like my old ways.

    Looking at the positives...you have a baby, AND you still are below your starting weight. That is something to be celebrated. Also, I have heard your band can hold a little more than what it says for capacity, so MAYBE you can have a tiny fill. Also, have you tried doing the 5 day pouch test? It may help to get you started back.

    Congrats on your new baby! Perhaps a slight fill, an increase in protein, and exercise will help jump start your weight loss.
