Lost 8 lbs last month! Weight was 202 this morning- onederland by Thanksgiving!!

It has been a year, all is well and still working on the weight. I have my spells where I do not lose at all, and I have even had spells where I gain a little, but all in all it is still happening well for me.

Doctors Appointment- weight 203.6!! What a joyous rush- wish I wasn't so sick I could enjoy the moment!

While weight loss is important, what's more important is the quality of food you put in your body - food is information that quickly changes your metabolism and genes.

no weight lost since last week feeling crappy

Please remind me that this is a lifestyle change and my weight will drop off if I continue to work with my lapband. I'm struggling a little bit... I weigh in tomorrow and I think it'll be another week with no loss...

Happy 18th Birthday trying to lose weight 209!

Seen your pics and congrats on the weight loss, keep it up.

My weight loss has slowed down. I am looking for some encourgement to get moving. I was banded on Aug 15th and I am nervous about working out. When I stretch my stomach, I feel a pulling at my port. Has anyone else experience this? If so, How did you deal with it?

5 years out, liquid out for awhile gained 20lbs, 2cc in now, and can still eat like mad. Stress in my life, i think time for a support group, i live in the phoenix area, help

another adjustment...hoping for restriction this time and some significant weight loss!

Weight didn't move this am. Oh, well- today was a busy day so maybe tomorrow I will see the elusive 192. So looking forward to 180's.

So frustrated....can't seem to get out of the 340's. Why am I not losing weight?

I always used to favor the winter to summer because I couldn't deal with heat. Now, since losing weight and getting active, I realize I now MUCH prefer summer. I'm so over the snow and cold! I want the warm weather back so I can get outside again!

Have been banded since May 24,2012 and my weight loss is way to slow I don't think I have found my sweet spot even though I have had only one fill. Any advice?

Help!! I am not doing very well with my band!!! The holidays did not go well. I gained 5 pounds. I had my band in june and I have only lost 30 lbs. I admit my exercise has not been the best, but I am sad with my results. I am just feeling like a failure today!! I need to get back on the band wagon and get my self in gear!!!!.

Gaining weight, no reason. UGH!

sooooo frustrated I have to loose 17 pounds before I can get scheduled for surgery So now I am going to start the opti fast early does anyone know how much weight can be loss on opti fast within a week

Trying to keep the weight off! Turns out that I have a bulging disk and it is creating drop foot. More testing next week!

Thankful...now 2/3 of the way to reaching my goal weight!

Only 16 pounds away from my goal weight now! 11 months out, and feeling fantastic!

Today is the first day I haven't gained since I've been able to eat again. 8 pounds up. We'll see what tomorrow brings, but it feels like I've stabilized and am starting to get some energy back. Now to start going back down again...

The closer I get to my weight loss goal, the harder I want to exercise.

So here I am almost 7months out and down to 188, my goal is 175. Its getting harder to lose the weight but feel good that I am where I am. If I don't lose anymore I am still a happy camper.

I am crying tears of happiness from the scale for the first time ever. I'm down 108 lbs from my highest weight and 93 lbs since i was sleeve not even 4 months ago. I am so happy i did this surgery! only 80 more lbs til goal!
