I had surgery in September. And I've only lost about 25 pounds. Im so embarrassed and I feel like a failure. Im only 20 and was 19 when I got the band so my parents are kind of concerned as to why the weight hasnt come off. Idk if it's something I'm doing. I dont eat nearly as much as I use to. And alot of foods I have cut out. I'm just totally confused and heartbroken. I'm tired of crying and being depressed about it. Is anyone else having the same issue or know what I can do?

I have had 4 fills I believe. The last one was a big fill and I think it's time for another one. I go to the doctor in a couple of weeks. I try to exercise 3-4 times a week....walking, crunches, stair marching. I usually only eat 2 meals a day. And maybe a couple of snacks. I try to stay away from red meat so usually chicken baked or grilled. I love fruit and salads so i try to eat that. My biggest problem is probably consuming enough water and consistent exercising because sometimes I only workout once a week.
