I felt the same way. I lost 50 lbs and was band Oct 29, 2008. And others have lost 100 lbs, 80 lbs, etc. But look at it this way. At least you are losing. Those are lbs you will never see again.

I totally understand how u feel. When I had my surgeory Oct 29, 2009. I was so ready for it and time slowed down. I didn't tell anyone because I didn't want to hear the comments that people is telling you. They just don't understand. A few months later, I told my co-workers because in my department of 12, 4 of us are banded. Just keep your head up and try to stay postive. I know its hard.

Sounds like you hit your plateu. Google P90X and you will learn more about muscle confusion. U need to change your work outs some and work different muscles. Also I heard that at least once a week you can eat any thing you want so you can shock your body. I'm not sure about that part so you may want to ask your doctor. Now the muslce confusion part I'm sure of. And if you read P90X you will learn more. You don't have to buy the DVDs like I did (they are expensive) lol, but u will see what I'm talking about. Also you may want to workout 5 days a week instead of 6 because your musles need to rest. Good luck on your journey. I understand how you feel. I been there. O by the way. I have about 8 ccs in my band.

It's easier to stay on track....than fall off and start over!
sarahp626 commented on sarahp626's blog entry in My life since I been banded!
Well I have started back excersing really good. I work out in the morning and evening. Also I walk on my morning 15 minute break. I must say its harder starting all over again. It makes me more disappointed in myself for ever stopping. But I got to suck it up and keep on going. I knew I was going to do this. That's why I gave away all my big clothes when I lost my 50 lbs. My size 10 is getting too tight and I am wearing mostly my size 12. I also brought some more cute size 10 hand me downs. That really made me want to get back on track. Looking at all these cute clothes in the closet and knowing I can almost wear them. :smile: I haven't weighed myself in a while because I knew I wasn't doing anything to get the weight off. As a matter of fact I gain three pounds. I'm just thankful its not more than that. I don't feel a different with my 5th fill but some times it takes a few days to a week for me to feel a different. I just felt a different with I took my meds. The third pill sort of gotten stuck. So I will have to take them about 15 minutes a part. Well I just wanted to update everyone. Feel free to give me any feedback!! -
Everyone's doctor is different. But with my doctor yes after your fill they have me to do the liquids. Have you been banded yet? If not when are you going to get banded?

How many fills have u had? Also bread is going to be a problem too. I have to chew mine really good. And some days I can't eat it.

Yesterday was my fifth fill. So I am feeling better about myself. In a few minutes I will take my break and go walking. I suppose to be on clear liquids for 2 days. Then full liquids for 2 days....then soft foods for 2 days. I was starving so I ate some oatmeal. Have anyone cheated on there liquid diet? Or if you havent tell me how u get through the week? It has been three hours since I ate the oatmeal and I am hunry. I usually have my snack by now. So I am going to drink my muscle milk. It has lots of protein in it.

u look great!! -
My doctor have me to drink water as she does my fills...to make sure I am not too tight. Also my doctor doesn't put much in. She does it slowly. Like BJ said it depends on your doctor. So make sure u ask questions. After your fill make sure you can drink water. If you can't you are fill to tight. My doctor also numb me first with a needle before she gives me my fill. My friend her docter didn't numb her and it wasn't pretty!

-
How has it been going? Also how much have you lost? I cancel my internet on my phone so I no longer can keep up with your blogs. My computer at home crashes so much and at work I really don't suppose to be on the computer. I just had my fifth fill yesterday. I gain about three lbs. So I am trying to get back on track.

I can't wait to you visit your family too. They are going to be soooooo shocked and surprise. That's a good idea that you are changing your eating habits so you can shock your body. Also I was told at least once a week eat what you want so u can get the cravings out your body and it will also shock your body. You sound like me about feeling fat. That is the way I feel since I been at this size for so long.....but trust me u are doing a good job and you will start losing again -
I have gained 3 lbs. Maybe a little more. I haven't weighed myself. I go to the doctor Monday, July 20, 2009 for my fifth fill. (I think its my fifth) I have been feeling down and out about not working out and my eating habits haven't been so good. It have been 12 weeks since I had a fill. I was at my sweet spot for a while and now no restriction. Thanks to this site I am feeling better. Like my title says I'm not going to give up.....can't afford to. I gave all my big clothes away.:smile2: And I am not buying any more.:confused: Just wanted to up date every one. It had been months since I wrote in my journal. Feel welcome to leave me some feed back. And tell me about your experiences with being banded.

I just wanted to thank you on your words of confort. I feel much better. I have been on this site all day yesterday and some of this morning and I see I am not the only one. Some people go a year without a fill and gain a lot more weight back.....and I'm just crying over three lbs. Also I remembered to take my meds!!! Thanks again.

It's okay....we all cheat ever once in a while. Plus I was told u need to eat like that once a week to shock your body.
