I have been banded last year November 2007 and so far have lost 47 pounds. Not that great and for the last 3 months I have hit a serious plateau and don't seem to be able to lose a pound. I need to lose another 50 pounds and it does not go. I am in the gym every day for a workout and I have cut down eating, I stick with protein, and very little carb. I am not sure what to do anymore........ Help please.........

I had 3 fills already and am at 10 cc so my doctor would not do another fill......

ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD REALLY HELP ME. Thanks.

i am the same the only thing is maybe go back to the doc

you need that sweet spot because you are doing everything else.

At the end of the day you need to eat something

and he has to help you in the process

hope it changes

Are you hungry? Cause that is what the band helps with. If you have your hunger under control then it is something else.

Plateaus happen. Sometimes it is your body regulating itself. The good thing is that you can do something about it.

Are you working with a trainer? Do you see a nutritionist? If not then that is where I would start. Even one session where you map out a plan is worth it.

Are you journaling your food? If not, most of times we think we are eating within our limits but after writing down everything that goes into the mouth it is seen that is not true. Sometime you don't get enough food and your body goes into survival mode and hangs onto every calorie. This is when you need see a nutritionist.

Are you doing the same old, same old, when it comes to exercise? If so shake it up a bit and do something completely different. Use different muscles. See a trainer.

I hope this helps. Wanting to change is a great place to start. Now plan some action. Good luck.
