Help! I dont understand what im doing wrong. Am I failing my band or is my band failing me. I had my surgery July 13, 2009. Pre surgery Lost:thumbup: 15 lbs. Post surgery Ive:thumbup: lost 15 lbs. I dont get my first fill until September 18 because the the doctors office is so backed up. Any how I was doing really great at first, wasnt hungry at all. Didnt really have an appetite. Following the diet was great as far as the liquids phase goes. Then as soon as I started to eat regular food. I lost one pound one week and the next week I :scared2: gained 4 pounds and havent been able to get it off. What am I doing wrong? I Know I seem to be having a small issue with drinking while eating and getting enough fluids in but for the most part im doing ok. I dont go over 1,200 calories but some time have more than 80 grams of carbs in a day. Is that the problem? Im hungry before I should be after a meal. I dont want to fail my band but somethings definitely not going right. Someone please help me and give me some advice. I'm really freaking out about this.:cursing::cursing::glare::cursing::tt2::c ursing: __________________

YOUR RIGHT THEY ARE JUST EXCUSES. THANKS FOR THE ADVICE. IVE CERTAINLY CALMED DOWN NOW. NOT IN PANIC MODE ANYMORE AND I JUST NEED TO DO WHAT I KNOW IM SUPPOSE TO FOR THE BAND TO WORK. THANKS ALOT FOR GIVIN ME , ( WHAT I CALL TOUGH LOVE) I SURE DID NEED IT.

Well im not exercising as much as I could be since Ive started working. Im not really able to stick to a schedule do to work either as far as my eating goes. I try my hardes to limit my carbs to but its so hard with carbs being in a lot of the foods I have at home rite now. Im getting better with drinking my water now and I can see a difference in my weight because the pounds I had picked up, have dropped off. So I guess I need to just plan my meals better and try the low carb diet or something. Thanks for the advice cuz i can take all support rite now.

Oh my. Ive just begun Hell week today. I know I will make it threw. So far so good.:tongue_smilie:

Im drinking the whey protein but the only thing is that my surgeon doesnt want me to mix it with anything but water. No soy milk or juice. GROSS.
