Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor Help I am losing sight...and feel alone



Recommended Posts

Hi my name is Alli, and I was banded on 4/10/2008. This April will mark my two year bandaversary. At this point I have lost 141 pounds. I have hit the wall though for many reasons. Last July I left my entire family and social network in Virginia and moved to San Diego, Ca. Needless to say the change has been very hard on me in so many ways. Ive lost about 20 pounds since we moved here in July 09, but since then I have been yo-yoing up and down with 5-10 pounds. I think my band is pretty well adjusted, I get full easily and I stay satisfied the normal amount of time.

I think the real reason I am here is because I am alone. I feel like I dont have any support anymore. I dont work out like I was and I have been eating no no foods. I know everything I am supposed to be doing but I have fallen into such a deep depression about leaving what was my entire world. I need some guidance, a friend, someone to help me get back to losing weight. I wsnt to lose about another 80 pounds. Is there someone out there who can help me? I need and angel.

Alli, hi, I'm Sandi and I was banded in May of 2004. I really understand where you are at right now and would be willing to do whatever I can to hlp you. It is quicker and easier to communicate by PM or email - sandi@banded living.com. I lost 250 lbs and have had to kickstart myself many times in the past year or so to keep from totally falling ff the wagon. I am up in Ventura so we are almost "neighbors". Let me know what you think.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
