I am so happy I change Lap-band doctors!! Dr. Barker's office is so much better. The staff is friendlier and motivational. He gave me a .4cc fill which is more than the other office was doing each visit. They were giving me .1 and .2 cc and that didn't faze me at all. For the first time I am feeling good when I eat only 1/2 cup. Not full not hungry just satisfied. Awesome! I have lost 3 pounds since Thursday!!! Wow! I should have switched doctors when I first moved then I would be under 300 by now! I do have to say that I have been working out more too so I can't blame it all on not having good fills. I am going to go the YMCA to work out today. My regular gym is closed on Sundays. I hate to pay 10 for one day, but I want to kick my week off right. Plus I am 324.8 w/o being fully dressed and 326 with clothes on this morning and I wanted to start Monday off at 325 that means I need to burn around 1000 calories today! I cleaned this morning and I am going to wash so that will give me about 200 calories and 30 on the elliptical will be 700 and another 100 or so from the bike. I will eat 1200 min calories for the day. So far I have ate an egg with 1oz of cheese and 1/4 cup of oatmeal. This past week was awesome and I am looking forward to some more weight loss this week! Good luck everyone this week!

You go girl! I hope you accomplish everything you wish to. We are all in this together and understand exactly what you are going through. I am glad you changed doctors. If your doctor and his staff was not able to give you the encouragement and desire needed to succeed, what good are they? Do you attend support meetings? You will probably get some good ideas and encouragement from those. Best of luck.

Well, I moved to Greenville, TX in April and the closest place for support meetings is in Dallas which is about a 40 min drive for me. I plan to attend one though because I think I really need to. Things changed for the better for me when I joined this site though. Reading all the other stories and seeing the pictures has really helped me. Thanks.

Nice work with the new doctor! I'm glad you feel better about it all, and yourself now! Maybe you could figure out how to start a group in Greenville? Or closer? My mom lives in Plano. What about McKinney? Just ideas. I went to a support group meeting this week and it helps with a boost so much!!!

Thanks for the advice! That's a good idea! I bet I am not the only one in this whole city that has the band. I wonder do a professional needs to be there to give advice or something? I've never been to a support group before.

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
