Hi Guys, Well I did my surgery in August 2007 and I am in a slump. I lost 62 lbs in a year and a half starting at 307 ending at 245ltb. I got pregnant in January and lost my baby in March of this year. Throughout the three months I was preganant I bumped up to 265! I am having a hell of a time now dropping this weight and it is all in my stomach. I really need some help from some successful bandsters. Can you please reply or e-mail me with actual menus of what you ate Breakfast, lunch and dinner? I am really discouraged as my two year post surgery is coming and I am nowhere near close to goal. I have family members now telling me this whole things was a waste I want this to work.

Thanks guys...my appetite has decreased temendously now. It is so wierd. I hope it lasts!.

What are you excercise experiences? I have not been to the gym over three months due to shin injury. I am still in pain but now need to excercise I am trying to atleast maintain and keep active during this pregnancy. Do anyone of you excercise during pregnancy? If so what are you doing or what do you suggest?

YES!! Hence why I am pregnant today...lol.

I too am at the hungry, hungry stage. I feel as though if I don't eat I will attack! This is what my face look like when I am hungryyyyy:mad2:! I am trying to eat very healthy...hey what about Splenda and sugar free juice...are you all staying away from that? I bought some yougurt sweetned with splenda...I am a bit scard to I am giving it away?

Hi guys, So I got the de fill and went down from 7 cc's to 5 cc's. OMG I can eat too much now. I feel as though I was never banded and that scares me. I am trying to eat very balanced and healthy but am not used to the quantity. I gained 3 lbs. Guys I am so very scared right now.

Hi Guys, So I just found out I am pregnant. Well I have been banded for about a year and a half now and lost 62 lbs. Guys, I am scared, nervous, happy and everything all into one. Is there any advice that bandsters that have had babies with the band can tell me like weight gain, how to cope with the HUNGER:crying:

Hi Guys, I just found out that I am pregnant. I am happy and scared all at the same time. I lost 60 lbs so far and am so scared of gaining. I is hell to get protien in now. Can I please get some words of wisdome from you all.

I am looking at all of the successful lapbanders that have lost a lot of weight. I am wondering if you can let me know what you ate? Is there anything that you have cut out/eliminated? Have you changed the way you cook? I am at a stand still and would really like some assistance.

That is wonderful...I would like to know as well.

Irish, My next goal is simply 260. When I get there I can go to Calgary to train for a few days with my aunt....I am very excited about this.

Hey all my Calgarians, If you are looking for a REPUTABLE personal trainer in Calgary give this studio a try. She is amazing...they are sensitive to the lapband. I work with her from Toronto.
