Hi, I will be 52 in November, married with 3 grown children, and 3 beautiful grandchildren.

I have been on this site for a while but I am new to witting on here.

I have been band for 4 year come November 28. By Dr. Michael Nausbaum Livingston, NJ. I Started this journey weighting 331 lost 82 lbs:smile:, In the last year I have put 31 lbs :thumbup: back on bring me to 280. I have falling off the wagon a bite, because I snack a little more then I should, I still tried to eat healthy chicken and fish baked, vegetables and lots of salads.

I lost my motivation and focus. I was at a gym were it was just equipment and I think I got bored, so I have since rejoined a gym with classes hoping that will spark motivation and put my focus back on ME:smile2:. I still get fills, I just had one about 2 weeks ago. My other Dr. wants to put me on this pill to help curb my appetite. Must wait on some test I took because of some family health issues.

So I would like any other suggestion from a someone......PLEASE HELP.....I do not want to lose this battle I come to far. Need to lose at least another 90 to 100 lbs.

Well I say you did the best thing you could which is by knowing you need to do something, and joining a gym. I say cut out a bunch of motivational sayings and put them up all through out the house and put up a goal dress or pants or something that you want to fit into. Up your Protein and add some Fiber into it. You can do it take it day at a time or hour by hour whatever it takes if you fall off the wagon then get back on. everyone makes mistakes so don't be afraid of that. I hope when I have my surgery I will do as good as you!:thumbup:

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
