@amaniccookie~you go girl! I also was banded in March. My start weight was 244 I am now at 219. I ride my bike 6 miles 5 days a week. I just recently bought a biggest losers DVD that you use weights with. I struggle with workout options as well. I have a problem with my right foot when I try to walk long distances, it just burns like it's on fire. I have lost 5 1/2 inches on my waist and I have ankles again! I'm still trying to figure out my portions because if I eat a cup or less I'm starving and end up late night snacking. Ugh! I have had 4 fills and I am at 5.8 in a 10cc band. My last fill was just a few days ago. I def notice a difference with this one. Just curious where you are at with your meals, etc.

I was banded 3/14/11 and I seem to be losing hair. It doesn't matter if I brush my hair or the wind blows, I am finding hair falling out like crazy. The nurse told me to take biotin or prenatal gummies. Anyone else having this problem?!?

Thanks for all these responses. Helps to know I'm not alone. The cycle that our hair goes thru is truly amazing! I will definitely try to stay calm and of course increase the protein! Thanks everyone

I'm so glad I found this post. I was banded 3/14/11 weighing 244. I am down to 220, and have moments of feeling failure due to exercising my booty off 6 days a week and not seeing the scale drop. I realize I need to reevaluate my portions and take each day for what it is, just a path in my journey. I have managed to lose 5 1/2 inches off my waist. (yay me!) Congrats to you!
