HarleyNana 10 Posted November 12, 2006 I'll be the first to say it's the hardest pounds to lose. With the right frame of mind and the help of your band...I know you can do it. Congratulations are in order for being so close to your goal....YOU GO GIRL! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJChick 3 Posted November 12, 2006 Yep the closer you are the harder it gets IMHO... GOOD LUCK !!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJB 2 Posted November 12, 2006 I also need to lose 30 more pounds. Maybe we can try and do it together. I have gotton off track and need a boost to. I know that if I would measure my 3 meals a day and stick to that like I did in the beggining I would have no problem losing again. I have not lost any weight in 1 month. But I have not gained either. YEA!!! I am going to start weighing my food today and stick to my 3 meals with no Snacks in between. Man thats hard. Good luck to you.

Jachut 487 Posted November 12, 2006 I need more than encouragement, I need a BOOT up the behind. Its very hard isnt it? I just mentioned in another thread, I honestly have not had to diet at all to lose the weight I have. The band limiting the amount I can eat has been enough, that and healthy choices most of the time. But I'm going to Weight Watchers with my mum on Thursday, its time for some added discipline!

Parvathi 2 Posted November 12, 2006 It's absolutely the hardest part, but you CAN do it. Keep your eye on the goal and if you slip up, don't beat yourself up about it. It happens to us all, just jump back on the wagon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the best me 6 Posted November 13, 2006 Tired of fighting for the last 30, too. I'm going in for a fill. I haven't had one in over 13 months. I guess it's time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lianna 3 Posted November 13, 2006 I am with yall! I have floated between 165-170 for about 2 months now. I knnnnnnnnow I need a fill. I suppose that deep down inside I am so happy to be in a size 12/14 and feeling so great, and happy to be maintaining and NOT gaining that I have slacked off! I think it is time for us to step up the excersize, crack down on the food and portions, and fill to better restriction if necessary. I willl make goal!!! So will you!!!

bobby_hamrick 0 Posted November 13, 2006 workin on the last 30 for a year now. I too am considering a fill. I will wait to January to decide that.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fauxnaif 1 Posted November 13, 2006 It is hard! I am so thankful for like a pound or two a month!!! But you can still lose sizes and reshape your body more easily than losing weight (in my experience) at this weight. Exercise is the key. I think if you have a goal of no more than 3-4 pounds a month at this point, you won't be disappointed. Also, turn the exercise up and start going by how your clothes fit, not necessarily by your weight. Good luck. I feel your pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woodys 0 Posted November 13, 2006 I'm working on my last 22.....just had a fill on the 7th, hope this helps. I find that I have days where I can't stop munching. I do really good at meal time but whether I'm hungry or not I sometimes find myself "grazing". Carol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
