I think this last fill brought me to the sweet spot. I am now at 8.3 in a 10 cc band and I have been losing steadily for a month without any exersize. (Bad...I know). I have been working at last 14 hour days and I really haven't had a few minutes to even think about it...plus it's already almost 100 degrees every day here which isn't particularly motivating for a nice sweaty walk at lunch time.

I have been watching my carb intake and am making sure I'm getting my protein although I was definitely slacking in March and April on the protein. I made a new mix which is almonds, shelled pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries, white and dark chocolate chips, and a few other nuts and mixed up in a huge batch. Then split up into bags and put one every where I spend time so that I can snack on something high protein and fiber and relatively low in carbs. (keep the number of choc chips and dried fruit to about 1/4 to 1/5 of the total mix. This helps me stay away from the bad stuff.

I am 9 pounds away from wonderland and I can't wait. Just cleared out another 50 pounds of clothes that don't fit me from the closet. IT's crazy!

I find myself wanting to talk about my weight loss and most people just give me a crazy look. I realize that they don't care but I do!

Hope that works that way for me when I have number 3 or 4 fill...stuck right now at 6.5 cc's. Congrats to you!

Congratulations!!! I am 10 pounds from wonderland- can't wait!! It is such an accomplishment of course you want to tell the whole world!!! Good to have lapband talk because we all do care and want to hear about your losses!!! God Bless!
