Hi all!

I was banded back in December. I've lost 62 pounds total, since starting this process. I joined LBT because I've been feeling really frustrated lately. My band is filled just over 1cc and it's not enough, so I'm hungry a lot more than when I was first banded. I'm feeling a little discouraged as I keep yoyo-ing an annoying 3-5 pounds. I lose it, I gain it back, I lose it, I gain it back - its enough to make me cry! I'm hoping that someone has been in the same situation and can help me feel like I'm not going crazy and that someone else has been in my shoes.

I started a couch to 5k program, that I hope will help me drop the pounds. We shall see

Thanks so much for reading

Hi Alana, I am not banded yet but I have been reading several posts about what you are describing and everyones advice who has been banded states you should always go back to the basics of how you eat when you first got banded. Are you tracking your daily calories? I have downloaded an app onto my android phone called "lose it", I got it from another individual on this site, see you can learn so much just by coming here.

Best of luck and keep us all posted
