Tired and uninspired :(

I was banded Nov 8th of 2010 and have lost 61 pounds but I haven't lost anything in 2 months and I notice myself going back to my old ways and I don't want anything to do with exercise anymore ugh what do you do to stay motivated? I need some inspiration!

hello !! cheer up!! 61 lbs is quite an achievement!!! Workouts are difficult for me too...but if we dont work out our fitness will get worse.

I thought lap band was magic...but soon I realised that workout is a must...my doc has asked me to exercise twice....but thats not possible..

How old are you by the way....all the best for more weight loss and good workouts...

Thanks for the encouragement! I'm 28 and I thought the lapband was like magic at first too and now I realize now more than ever it's just a really great tool.

There is nothing like a personal trainer to keep you going...My 6 wks with CC has turned into > 2 years and it has been wonderful. She motivates me and is full of life wisdom.....I haven't had a real plateau ever. Whenever the scale didn't move we looked at my food journal and found the problem and made adjustments. She changes my workout constantly and has been very attuned to my needs to not be bored. I am having a series of foot surgeries in the fall and she is already working on formulating sitting and non wt bearing exercises to keep me in shape for when I can't treadmill for weeks.

I hope you can find a personal trainer to help you.

Try different classes and activities as well! The more fun, the more it doesn't feel like exercise
