    What am I doing wrong here?

    I had my 5th fill yesterday. I got on the scale and have only lost 3 pounds in 5 weeks. WTH!?!?! I almost started crying from frustration. I don't know what I am doing wrong that I am not losing the weight. I know that 67 pounds in 6 months is great but I thought I would lose more. I am eating right and exercising. I don't know if I need to eat differently or change up my exercise routine. But I am having a hard time doing what excersie I am doing because I am in pain most of the time from my Lupus. Maybe I am just being too hard on myself. I am still losing and I need to remember that this is a life long process not an overnight miracle. Things will all work out how they are supposed to. If anyone has ideas on what I can do to bump up the weight loss let me know.

    6 Months Out

    Well I am happy to say that today is my 6 month bandiversarry. I go for my next visit on the 10th and hopefully I am still losing. It seems like I am eating a lot lately. I don't know if it is because I am actually humgry or because I am so stressed out. I know that this is a lifelong journey and I am making every effort to do the best I can with this awesome tool that I have. I thank God that I have an awesome support system to help me. I need to get back on track and get my life back under my control. My health is way more importnant than anything that comes my way. Good luck to all of you that are still on your journey's and congrats to those that have made goal. We are shining examples of what the Lap Band can and will do it. I am proud to be a member of this "family".
