I have found that every time u throw up the band will tighten . I also find changes in the weather will affect my band

There will be times when u just. Must give into cravings so don't dwell on what is already done just focus on the big picture I look at what I weight I have kept off

Hang in there I know those shakes are hard to have for 10 days take a picture of yourself and tell yourself that u will not look like that again it helps me especially when I think I am falling of the wagon

114 lbs since Aug 2011

Protein is the key get all your protein. I find that if I don't get all my protein I gain weight

ask yourself which would u rather be healthier and weigh less or not have scars? I take the health

There will always be times when that scale will not move. I always look at how far I've come and take it one day at a time. Don't let anyone tell you there won't be setbacks because there will. Remember it is not always about the scale.

cool I have made up my mind to walk 5 miles per day next year It is a goal that is attainable.

M Dr said the port is attached to the muscle so you are probably just sore for the muscle hurting

Don't give up. It has taken me a month to break a plateau and start lossing again. It took me 15mos to lose 94lbs. I have always had it in my mind its not about how much weight I have lost It is being able to keep it off. I have gotten out of weighing myself every day so now I only weigh 3 times a week. It is the baby steps we take that will make us all a sucess. good luck and keep up the good work

I am 15 mos out and some food smells still make me want to gag. It's not always the same food,. Being banded is a continuing learning process. I learn something new all the time

Get yourself smaller plates and eating utensils and measure, measure

I have had the same issue I had to have a little fluid removed from my band so I could eat. My band is always a little tight first thing in the morning, sometimes hot liquid wlll help with that

thanks for the good information
