Thank's Bmamas I am really doing things right. If I wasn't then I could understand. But I probally eat 900cal top's so that's why I'm so stressed but thank's for the in for and Good luck on your weight loss.

No problem what im here for keep up great work :) time will fly n ull be wow month has passed im like that today 1month annv. I cant belive it keep us psted

One more question Ms. Bmamas. After you got your band filled, did you eat less?

Today first full day after band fill so far yes but ill get back to u in a week lol but I can totally feel differnce

Read my post first fill wow n ull see what happn
Also 1 month annv.
Hope helps

Also 4 weeks out now arent u getting ur fill any day now ?

I get my first fillin 2 weeks and I'm very happy because like I said I can eat more that 1/2c of food

I was same way i couldnt wait n way excited for same reason

I am nearly 8 weeks out now. I told my doc I felt I was eating too much as well, but I was still losing. Remember, we lose at a slower rate because we dont deal with the malabsorption issues like RNY folks. My doc said that they like to see 1# per week and I average 2 or more. Dont weigh more than once a week or you will make yourself crazy. If you are hungry, have healthy snacks that are low cal. Fresh fruit, SF jello or pudding and home made soup are some of my, go to, foods. I know I eat more than 1/2 cup at once and I always thought I would never be able to do that! Now that I had this blockage and I am irritated and swollen, my intake is greatly reduced. It made me wonder if this is what it will be like when I hit my green zone. I dont currently have any fluid in my band but hope he will put it back once this situation is resolved.

Just keep following the plan and use your willpower when you think you have had enough. You will eventually find your zone and then it will all fall into place.

Make sure you are exercising. I have a favorite CD that I cant listen to without dancing around. I also have a Biggest Loser DVD that is all 10 minute cardio workouts. Who cant find 10 minutes?? Dancing is still my favorite and it is a great core workout. Keeps your legs and mid section nice and toned.

The biggest thing to remember is , Dont get discouraged!

Thank's can'tbehappening, and bmamas, My aunt bought me zumba (the one off of tv) dvd and I LOVE IT I do it everyday and I walk 20 blocks. I do eat pretty well. For breakfast I have a yogurt and a light string cheese, lunch I'll have like baked chicken or a turkey burger and a veggie and dinner I'll have(baked) turkey or chicken *or sonething like that) and a veggie. When I get hungury I'll have like a string cheese or 2-3 slices of turkey or ham lunch meat. Like I said I try my best to stay away from carb's but like I said I just don't understand.

But I am so proud of myself, I would weigh myself and see that I gained weight and just say forget it. No matter what I do I'm still gaining and I would go and eat my face off. But I haven't. I just get on her and vent and read other people's stories of success and say "one day that will be me"

Thank you all for your guidance and support. May God bless us all.

Nai, i used to do the same thing. It was so discouraging to see the scale go up so often and not usually down. The trick is to accept this as a normal part of the process and just keep going!

Sounds like you are making great meal choices, so just keep going and dont lose sight of the prize! I WILL come. :-)
