Well I've been discourage becuz I am 6 lbs away from being in ONEderland and I cant seem to get there no matter what I do. I know I havent been eating the right foods, I cant seem to get into the exercise becuz I am not seeing any results. Just sore muscles and no weight loss. :biggrin: I dont know how to get back on the bandwagon. I am thinking about doing the 5 day pouch test. I know my band is working becuz things get stuck often. I dont think I am able to eat very much and I have to wait til like afternoon before I can eat something close to solid. All morning it's just shakes and coffee and iced tea. I think it's a combination of probably not getting in enough calories and not having the motivation to exercise becuz I'm not seeing any difference in my clothes or the scale. Has anyone else gotten down about their band and just stopped following the rules becuz it doesnt seem to be working. ??? Private msg me if u dont want to post on here. blessings to all and hope to get some support here. love and light dolphin

I dont come to this site anymore. I come here for help and poor my heart out to all the may bandsters and 47 ppl viewd it but NOT ONE SINGLE support offered or suggestions. thank you so much.

Wanted to let everyone know that my one yr bandiversary:w00t: is today...it doesnt seem like it's been a yr and I've only lost 49 lbs..I would have thought that I would have lost more than this by now..but I will admit most of it is probably my fault becuz I havent been hitting the gym like I am suppose to...but I am working on that...:glare: and working on trying to eat better and slower and trying to get more water in me and protein..I cant believe after a yr I'm still learning...I dont have any support here at home..so I am doing this on my own. :eek: so blessings to all and take care...hope to hear from you soon

This is frustrating as all hell.:rolleyes2: I've only lost 18lbs and I started going to the gym after I got my first fill and still not losing weight.:tongue2: Although my inner thighs jiggle like jello.:rolleyes2: I'm losing inches but not lbs and I want that scale to do downward not stay stagnant. I've decided to go back to a liquid diet to hopefully kickstart my weight loss back up. Is anyone else having these issues or is it just me? Dolphin

Well I am going on 8 months of having the lap band and I'm not getting anywhere. My huge flippin stomach wont go anywhere. I started back to exercising this week after not exercising for 2 months and I've gaind 3 lbs:angry:...WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME. I thought working out you were suppose to lose weight NOT GAIN IT BACK. I havent had a fill since Nov 4th and I have 7 cc's in me so far. I can eat almost anything after the band loosens in the morning. I have fallen of the damn wagon and I dont know how to get back on it. I guess I keep eating slider foods, i dont know. I'm trying to be good, but I crave Cereal late at night and I eat salad and I am able to get down a WHOLE BOWL :scared2:of salad with all kinds of veggies, cheese, bacon bits etc. I should NOT be able to eat a whole damn bowl of salad. What the hell is wrong with me???:cool2: I dont have any diet plan laid out, I just try to watch what I eat and nothing seems to work. I dont get hungry at times I should be and I get hungry at times I shouldnt be getting hungry like at 8 or 9 pm while watching dvd's or reading. :grouphug: I'm at the end of my rope and I'm seriously thinking that this lap band was the wrong way to go..because I have so many things working AGAINST ME IT'S NOT EVEN FUNNY...I have PCOS, INSULIN RESISTANCE and I'm FAT! I workout 4 times a week and I'm starting to think that if my body is gonna be stubborn then maybe I should be too and exercise for hrs EVERY DAY..but wont I be risking gaining muscle weight and not really losing any weight? I'm so confused and pissed off!! HHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPP PLEASE!!!! LOVE DOLPHIN:wub:

losinjusme congrats on ur baby...ur baby's bday is the same day as mine..different yrs...lol but same day..so congrats

I have been stuck at 210 for almost a month now. I'm heading back to the gym to kick my weight loss back up. I've been doing the mini trampoline at home but I dont know if it's helping or not. I want to see the scale go to ONEderland so bad..I can almost taste it..but I havent been in the 100's for many many yrs. I just hope it attainable. blessings to you all and hope to chat soon.

Ty all for commenting on this post. I'm so glad I am not alone in my feelings. Stuck at 210 lbs right now for about a month or more and I'm thinking of going on another liquid diet to kick start the weight loss again. Wish me luck. blessings to all and hope to hear from you again.

I hear ya ladies...I'm stuck at 210 lbs..I dont do the measuring thing..but I do have some new pics of myself in my albums...it's hard for me to see a difference...I still havent bought new clothes for myself yet. My sweats still fit and shirts are lose even though they are 3 x men's tshirts...I still see myself as the huge blob I was and I dont want to waste money on new clothes becuz I KNOW I will get disappointed if I cant fit into the size I want to be. I'm so glad that everyone hasnt given up yet...I am on the verge of giving up and doing another liquid diet to get the lbs moving downward again. love and light to all blessings dolphin
