Hairmaven 0 Posted March 23, 2011 Hi! I was banded (Sounds like we are birds being tagged and released!) in Nov 2010 by Dr. Phearson at SoCal Bariatrics. I weighed 257 and I'm 5'5". It's now March and I'm down to 187! Platueing seems to be my biggest problem. I will stay at a weight for 3-4 weeks and then slowly start loosing again. Juat found you all so I'm hoping for some questions answered here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lapbandchic33 0 Posted March 23, 2011 Great job on your weight loss!!! Can't believe you've lost that much in so lil time! You should be proud of yourself. I have had the same problem for some time. I know what my problem is though.... It's that im not getting enough exercise and i need to cut out some of the carbohydrates. If u up your exercise, you will see more of a weight loss. 3-4 days a week of cardio and weight training 3 days per week.. Try to break it up.. cardio one day/weight training the next.. etc If you are already exercising then add more cardio... Its a never ending battle! I had the lapband 3/24/10- But been dieting since 10/09... Lost a total of 104 lbs. I am 30 lbs away from goal..... I am struggling to get there! Good luck on your weight loss journey. Sounds like your doing an awesome job! \ Hi! I was banded (Sounds like we are birds being tagged and released!) in Nov 2010 by Dr. Phearson at SoCal Bariatrics. I weighed 257 and I'm 5'5".
