I am very proud of you for asking/seeking help before you gain a real lot back. Good for you. Maybe make a dietitian appointment and start over with stage 3 or 4. I love my monthly support groups, do you attend yours? Also, how about exercise. Just walk 5-10 minutes to start and work it up from there. You can do it. You made the commitment when you got the band to help you and now help it.

I go to the gym since December. I rode the bike for 5 minutes and now can go 25-30. Take baby steps.

Consider this your other kick in the ass!!

It's great that you are getting control before you gain everything back! The hardest part for a lot of people is admitting that they are responsible for the set back and not the band!

It's never to late! Get back on track! Start moving!!!!

Congratulations on your weight loss!

OUCH !! LoL !!thank you for the A$$ kicking !!! I have not been exercising regularly, which I will restart tonight,I've been drinking my calories a lot that also stops today, I've learned how to " eat around" the band , which I will be watching for, but its a little harder but I will work on it. I also have not been consistent on this site being inspired or pushing others. I use to live on this site !! I do not blame the band at all. I understand it is a tool and I have to work it. But I had it really easy at first and I didn't really do anything for the weight to come off.Now I know that was the low hanging fruit and the real work has to begin !! :-)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
