Finally, the scale is moving down some more! My body just seemed to love the range of 218-220... has been hovering there for 25 days (not that I'm counting or anything LOL). I saw 218 yesterday and have been soooooo good lately about following the rules and getting serious exercise in, I was really hoping I might finally see something lower than 218 today... like maybe 217 or 217.5. I would even take 217.9, but I have an old scale that only goes in half pound increments. But, what do I see this morning...

:w00t::w00t::w00t: 216! Woohoo!!!:w00t::w00t::w00t:

TWO pounds down from my lowest weight. And, I'm proud to say I DESERVE it!

Boy, this band will drive you crazy w/self-doubt because the weight just does not come off very steady. Seems to come off in spurts for me. But, I don't have proper restriction yet either so that may be part of the reason for this (as well as not always consistently following all the rules ). Anyway, regardless of HOW the weight is coming off, I am still thrilled w/my band because it IS coming off. :wub:

Your post was very informative to me. I've had my band since 2/26 and i find that i'm frustrated already. Initially, first dr visit i had lost 12 lbs. I've only lost another 1/2 lb in 2 weeks. I'm eating good and even exercising. I made a post today that I was frustrated. Any advise you can give would be appreciated.

Adagray~ Congrats, girl!!!!! Good for you!!!!! Keep at it and before you know it, the lbs will be sliding off.
