Dust myself off and try again....

[Anume 937 314]

So I was banded April 25, 2012 weighing in at my highest EVER 325lbs within the first 3 months I've manage to lose 40lbs got down to 285lbs. So from July 2012 until now I've only lost 12lbs It's time to get back on track . And I'm determine to do what it take to be one of the people who've found success in this. So like the late Aaliyah said "If at first you don't succeed dust yourself off and try again".....and I'm going to do just that, try again.

_{You've maintained the weight you lost, and that's a great thing, and managed to continue losing. Good luck picking up the pace again, and be proud of your accomplishment to date!}

It's never too late to get back on track with the band as long as you are doing the following:

1. Are you getting your fills?, do you have adequate restriction?

2. Are you getting some exercise in? Daily walks, lifting weights, aerobics

3. Are you counting your calories and getting no more than 1200 calories per day, ideally between 700-1000 on my days for best weight loss.

3. Are you staying away from junk?

4. Are most of your meals lean Proteins and green veggies?

If you answered no to most of the questions honestly, then you can dust off and start over.

Good luck!

Good for you! Pull up your big girl panties, dust yourself off, you can do it! As jessiquoi said, you haven't gained, so you need to get back to the losing mode!
