    9/24/09 Hope for the Economy

    I'm a Business major and finding a job is next to impossible. Fortunately for me, my full time job is to be a mom. Let's hope the G-20 can behave like adults and not a bunch of children.
  2. Sounds like you're doing better than you think. I recognize that you don't know me, but I'm proud of you. Babs

    Staying the Course, but not dropping the weight.

    Don't give up! I'm in the "slow-losing" category.

    Thanks for the laugh!!!!!!!!!!

    October 2009 Surgery Date?

    Oooo, the SF Russell Stovers is so good. I don't deprive myself but there's lots of things I don't want now. My downfall was bread products but after it got stuck practically every time, I quit. One of the best pieces of advice I ever received was to exercise (another downfall). Now that I've gotten off my butt, the weight is coming off. Good luck!

    I bought a new scale. It is a Weight Watchers scale.

    I'm a slow starter/loser too. After 10 months I'm only down 25lb. I'm totally to blame. Denial was my middle name. :tt1: I've done some mental butt-kicking and think I'm on my way!

    Trying

    Hello All.... I'm trying so hard to eat and exercise like I'm suppose to. Its not easy. Thankfully I do like the Slim Fast and Boost drinks along with Crystal Lite Lemonade. My downfall was/is drinking while eating. I've stopped doing that and some of the weight is coming off. One ounce at a time. :tt1::huh2:

    Have I failed....?

    You sound exactly like me. Its a tough road I won't lie to you. Keep up the exercise. That was my downfall. I'm on track now and slowly getting the lbs. off. You are welcome to email me at bmcneely@consultant.com if you need anything. Babs

    Hoooray

    Remember that everytime you have a surgery you'll retain fluid. Once its out of your system, you'll drop more weight. I'm jealous! LOL Babs

    3 days till surgery

    Good luck and don't get nervous. It goes like clockwork and is a piece of cake (pun intended). :tt1:
  21. Hey BG....I've had a pressure test and approx 4 fluoro. Everything is fine and I haven't stretched the band. I have been on meds. that inhibit weightloss. I'm working on getting rid of them.

    Thanks for the words of encouragement. I haven't been able to meet many people who've had the band. The surgeon has support groups but I haven't been able to make them.

    First Ever Blog

    I am not happy with my weight loss. Its been almost a year and only 20lbs down. The nutritionist and dr said I'm doing everything right. Now they are looking at gastric by-pass. This does not scare me. Depression is getting to me. I try to exercise whenever I feel this way. Any advice is better than no advice at all. :tongue_smilie:

  24. PS...I was banded in Nov. too but have only lost 25lbs.
