Hello Everyone

 

i haven't been around much lately but I've still been keeping on. I had a follow up visit today with my surgeon who said I didn't need a fill, that I made good progress (no weight agined) but that I'd only lost 1lb since my last visit in November. I think that they're correct. I have been making horrible food choices. Chips, cookies and even soda when I want it. Yesterday I watched TLC's my 600lb life and i had a wakeup call. I don't want to be like that and I didn't have surgery to lose only 40lbs! I've still been active but I have to be more diligent about what I eat. I work out too hard not to receive the benefits! I feel like a failure even though they tell me I'm not. Its time to get back to work. Whose in it with me?!

Hi I can understand what you are saying. I am three years out this July and have never set a goal for my self. Reading your mess.made me realize its time for me to start to fine tune this gift that i was lucky enough to get. So today i will stop taking for granted my band and start doing my part again. Thank you! I know 25 more pounds would be great for me, and you would think that after loosing 86lb it would be easy but for some reason it feels like it actually got harder. So today I will step back and reassess. Hope you continue to do well and that i can get back on the right track.

I went to visit # 2 and no fill either- I did lose 4 lbs since last visit and he was happy with that. guess I will have to do more work myself, gym etc. I was correct in saying slow loss is better physically for myself, My bloodwork came with very low VITA "D" I need a Hawaiian vacation!!! I knew I needed to be out more. COME on Spring!
