FREAKING FRUSTRATED

[diamante 9]

So I'm 5 months post.. at 32lbs lost.. 20 of those occured during the 2 week pre diet and 2 week post diet.. and 10 dropped last month.. so for 3 months I lost 2 lbs.. and now these past 3 weeks again.. I've lost nothing.. I"m at 6cc on a large band.. I feel that I can't eat very much.. especially in the am.. I eat often.. rarely eat carbs.. and work out approx 5 times a week. Should I get another fill?? I feel that this process should be going a bit better for me... with the amount of effort I put it.. or is it normal to stay the same a bit and then drop?? I do NOT want to fill to the point that I'm ill or always hungry! But I'm ready to hit that 50lb mark at to keep going!! I really thought I'd be there by now

The question to ask yourself is: Can you go at least 4 hours on a cup of food without hunger? If no, then you might need a fill. If yes, you likely don't need one.

At any rate, you should have a talk with your doctor and let him help you decide whether you need a fill or not.

As far as losing, do you track your calories? If not, I would. It's the easiest way to be certain you're not accidentally eating too little or too much.

Best wishes.

Chill out! I only lost 12 lbs the first 4 months. 2-4 week plateaus happen to all of us.
