Reached your personal goal???

[B-52 7,113]

PS... I dread going in for my check up for fear I'll get yelled at again. They must think I'm cheating or something. I'm doing my best, which just isn't enough.

You're the one who should be yelling at your Doctor! You went through all this and for what? Why isn't the band doing anything?

I remember being mad and confronting my Dr...sort of, but it was 2-3 months after surgery and I was frustrated because I actually gained weight and was still out of control type hungry, as if the band was not even there...

He laughed at me! Sat me down, showed me the Yellow-Green-Red chart, explained each area, explained the process of fills, and told me what his / our goal is...the get to to the Green....

Which we finally did...since then weight loss has been easy and effortless.....

I hit my goal about 20 months ago..but since this is a lifestyle not a gimmick diet, (which I would eventually fail at if it were such) my body continued to loose...and now my Dr. informs me I am finished loosing, there is nothing left to loose without sacrificing Muscle...and we don't want to do that....maintain Protein at all costs...

With a new lifestyle the body will gradually and eventually level out to where it wants to be....where it is supposed to be....
