Hi I'm new to the site and in need of support! I got my band March 23, 2016, I started out at 243 pds. - went on the sugar busters (required) diet and lost like 5 pounds. I got my surgery and I still struggle to lose weight! I have lost a whooping total of 15 pounds and I feel like I should be down more. I do count calories (for the most part) and I walk daily at least 30 mins a day. I can say I have recently increased my water intake and that helps me feel fuller longer. But Im wondering if this is normal? I know they say slower is better but I didn't think it would be this slow. Any advice! I will listen, for sure!

Its not quite been a year with my band but, I FEEL better and just plan on keep goin!

Awesome responses! I will get the food tracker out, I did this at first but may need to revisit! I have seen a few more pounds go away but its still slow. I am working out at least 4 times a week since the new year and I'm going to keep going and appreciate the small changes. (Great advice!) I think it will take me like 10 months to a year to get the right fill also, however I do feel I have made some very positive changes to both my diet and exercise regimes. Thank you guys for responding to my post it helped me! Peace and Blessings. Loveall
