So I had my surgery in Dec 2007. Went from 217 to 165 in 4 months! Now I've been stalled for 2 years! Let me be clear....it is my fault! I have made no effort....and have just mainatined. But I'm done with that!!! My goal was 130...and I want to get to it! 130 may seem low....but it would be very average for a person my size. I am getting married next fall....so I have about a year. I would really like to meet my goal before the wedding...to look beautiful in my gown....but also to be a healthy weight when we try for a baby! I am going for a fill this morning! But I forget where to begin!!! I obviously know the stages...liquids, mushies solids....yadayada... My surgeon is strict with that and I will have no problem complying for those first couple days....but heres my dilemna....what to eat to get back on the wagon... Anyone have some tips for me to get started fresh! It's been so long!

Thank you both very much for your comments. I really need to cleanse my system too! I just need to get junk food off the mind. I get so mad at myself cause it makes me feel like crap!!! I don't know why I turn back to it! So I am going to take some of the advice and apply it right now...2 goals for week 1 1) Stick to 3 days of liquid, 1 day of mushy post fill. I have cheated this in the past and I KNOW it's not good for me. 2) When I start solid foods on Monday...stick to 3 meals of Protein and veggies. If anyone has some food advice...I would appreciate it. I need to refresh my memory!

Not going to go crazy telling my story....since we all seem to have similar ones! Was banded in Dec 2007....went from 217 to 165 in about 4 months! Got lazy...and am still at 165! I am getting married in a year...really want to buckle down and get to my goaol of 130. Had a fill this morning...hoping to start fresh. So it's liquids Today, Tomorrow, and Saturday. Mushies on Sunday. Back to food on Monday. Here's the challenging part! I need to remember what it is that I ate when I was losing!!! Any advice/encouragement would be appreciated!
