Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor Need Help Getting back on Track

[MommaBurks 0]

Hello there,

I was banded 2 years today I and I feel like the biggest failure! I lost 50+ pounds in 4 months and then found out that my birth control did not work for me and that I was pregnant with my 3rd child. Prior to finding out I had gotten a fill and during the same appt they gave me 2 unfills and it was still tight within a week or so of that so when I found out I was pregnant I had the majority of what was left unfilled. Needless to say I gained a lot of weight during my pregnancy. As long as I stayed under what I started at before surgury I considered that a plus. Well here I am almost a year and 2 fills later (which is a whole other issue) and nothing has changed. My eating habits are horrible and I feel like I have no support what so ever. My husband gives me a hard time yet all he wants to do is eat out and not exactly at the best choices.

I am so frustrated I need help, I am going to have to do this on my own though, I feel like I have this tool that is supposed to help me and I have no means (insurance or money) to maintain it at the moment. I would like to lose the same 50 pounds by the end of December but don't even know where to start. I am about 245 give or take. I need to do this for myself but i just don't know how. After surgery I had insurance for my fills and I had a membership at the Y and was using it regularly. Now I have none of that. If anyone is willing to help me get back on track any support and advice would be great.

Thanks,

Frustrated Momma,
