Recommitting to my band and exercise!!!

[Froggie D 1]

I have fallen off the wagon and making a committment tonight to get back on it tomorrow!

I was banded April 7 and have lost 69 pounds including my preop diet. I started exercising in June and have done well with that. I even lost weight on my vacation.:smile:

But I have not lost since I got back from my vacation (August 30). I continued to exercise until about 10 days ago, and have still lost some inches. Last week I had foot surgery. I have not been able to do much and have been eating like crazy, in spite of having pretty good restriction. I am eating all the wrong things and way more than I need. :sneaky:

I went to the gym and did exercise bike and arm bike for 30 minutes. Not to bad, so until I get my stitches out on Thursday, I will do that.

I am making a public committment to get back to my high Protein, low carb, all my Water, eating plan. I am determined to lose at least 40 more pounds! :yesnod:

Thanks for listening!

That is great! Sounds like you know exactly what to do and are ready to start doing it. You can loose that last 40 pounds! Best wishes!

Good luck! I was banded on 7/22 and have only lost 23 pounds so far and started really exercising this past week and stayed the same! Didn't lose a pound! I am somewhat frustrated but I have only had 1 fill so far so am hoping that as I get more restriction this will get easier and I will start to lose more quickly. Congratulations on your success so far and good luck with your re-commitment!

Froggie,

I'm right there with you! I have fallen off the wagon as well. My life is finally somewhat back in order (except for a few family problems). I was so excited to get out and walk my neighborhood this evening. Well, it decided to rain today. So I'm excited for tomorrow morning! I was banded Dec 30, 2009. I've lost about 45-50 pounds. I'm dying to lose again. So I'm starting fresh and doing what I'm supposed to do: eating right and exercising!

Awesome Froggie!!! Great to see you back.

Thanks everybody. I ate right today, went to the gym, and I am trying very hard to not eat anything else tonight (eating a SF popsicle!).

I get a fill next week so I hope that will help too.

Good luck to all of you!:smile:
