Always been bigger than other girls. Have been 90lbs overweight for 13 years. Cannot get weight off. Have lap band on 8/16/11. Down 18lbs but going so so slow. Feel restriction and pain only when not chewing long enough. I still can eat, eat, eat, just slower than usual and sometimes just give up chewing because my jaw gets tired. I am afraid I will never hit my goal weight and I am paranoid people are looking at me like "why is she still fat?" Want to push to get below 200 asap and hoping to hear if anyone has had the problem not losing and still hungry.
