Need advice!!

[Mandylove 32]

Hey all!

I was banded November 12th 2012! I'm so happy with my decision but have found myself struggling the last few weeks. I lost -40lbs within the first 4 1/2 months and have since been stuck. I've had 4 fills and am just now starting to feel some restriction. Any advice on getting through this slump. The first 40 lbs fell off and Im mentally so ready for another 40 to reach my goal. Any advice would be great!!

Do you count calories? How about exercise? Those are the first two places I check if I think weight loss is slowing down.

Try switching up your diet. I found that an atkins/south beach/Mediterranean diet works well for me.

Guy,

What does your Mediterranean diet consist of? Just curious as I've been on Atkins and South Beach both. I had temporary success with both diets but I want to keep my weight off forever this time if I can help it.
