So I am just stuck between the same couple of pounds. I keep yo-yo-ing back and forth. I am no where near my goal weight. Not even half way there yet. Anyone have any advice? I am debating doing a liquid diet to jump start things. Any other ideas to get my weight loss going again? I will be having another fill next week, so hopefully that will get me started too. TIA! Andrea

Dr. appt tomorrow and possible fill. Should be interesting!

Thank you all for the ideas! It just gets super frustrating.

My problem is that I am no where near my goal! I want to be, but I've got such a long ways to go. I probably should try to meet with the nutrionist when I get my fill. She is new and I really wish the old gal was still there. She was a lot easier to talk to.

You guys I kinda feel like I'm stuck. The scale isn't moving. I scheduled a fill for the 23rd hoping that will help. Do any of you have any ideas?

Go JT! Reunion here you come!

ha ha ha JT, you are going to own that! You can easily reach that goal. Just keep on keeping on :thumbup: I am counting on 3 and a half more years until my HS reunion!

Yay girl! Glad the scale moved Way to go!

Snow Day! So I can fight the coffee for one more day. I was down 4lbs. too so the scale finally moved in the right direction. Here I come two hundred teens!

ha ha ha I am doing well. It helps that I am working so I'm not as tempted. Now tomorrow it will be hard. I'm not taking my kids with me so I *could* stop for coffee. I am addicted to Starbucks White Chocolate Mochas. I am going to resist the urge! Hoping the scale will show that my hard work has paid off. If not I am not sure I will be as motivated to fight the coffee. ha ha ha

Oh girl! It's just because I'm off of work! Once school starts up next week I won't have as much time. Hoping to continue when school starts. Question for you all. Are you guys eating more then 1200 calories? When I start eating I go hard core. I don't eat much and then I am starving. This is why I question how the band is working. I don't think I am eating enough actually. Any advice?

BG love the pic! So what is the 5 day pouch test again? I missed that somewhere. Maybe I should try it. Sharon I started today! So far so good. And I worked out for an hour going 6 miles on my bike and 2 miles on the treadmill. Hope to continue! I was up 2 lbs. on Wednesday, but forgot to get on the scale this morning. So my ticker is off too. I'll try to check it out tomorrow! Can I tell you a frustration though? My in order to get to overweight on my bmi instead of obese I have to be 190lbs. Ugh! That seems like a long ways away.

Doodle I am starting the first. Wanna join me?

Anyone want to do no flour/no sugar with me?! I am thinking about starting either the day after Christmas or New Years Day. Merry Christmas!

Welcome Crimson!

That stinks JT. You're rocking it though! I am going to start up with a personal trainer this week and then start working out with a girlfriend at our rec center. This should really help me!

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody! Thanks BG!

Just wanted to post some pictures! They are great inspiration. Can't wait to reach 100lbs. I am going to be smokin'!

Way to go Jerseygirl!

Two Twenties and a BMI in the 35's! YAY! 29 will make me obese rather then morbidly!

Oh girl. I am hungry. Wish I wasn't! Thank you! I am going to keep trying my darnedest!

Great ideas! I like it girl. Thanks for the tips. I had another fill tonight. She just gave me a 1/4 cc since I'm getting up there. Now at 8.75cc in a 10cc band. Hoping to reach that sweet spot soon! I have another fill before Christmas so I hope this fill will help me get through Thanksgiving without gaining. I had lost 9 lbs. in 6 weeks so I was quite happy. Just gotta get that starving feeling to go away three hours after lunch.

I am going to give that a try BG! Is yogurt that bad? I eat Dannon Light and Fit. Should I stop it? What things are you guys eating? I need some more variety.

Angie, I am scheduled for a fill on Tuesday :drool: It's been six weeks this time since my last fill and I'm ready for it. Today I reached the 50lb mark! I have been waiting for this for about 3 weeks. This no sweet thing is doing it :thumbup: I also have been trying to hit the water hard. Bg, I can do an hour after eating to drink. Is it 30 or 60 minutes before the meal on drinking?
