5yrs Banded, need support buddy/buddies!

[Lady Lap Band 71]

Hello!

I’ve been banded for 5 yrs. In 3 yrs I lost 103lbs and was 11lbs to goal. Long story short due to the stresses of life instead of hitting my goal I gained 30lbs back over the last 2 yrs. Well I’ve finally woken up, yippy! I’ve adjusted my goal to 148lbs instead of 138lbs. I’ve already lost 5lbs and now I have 27 to go until I hit my goal. I’m hoping to hit it by the last day of summer Sept. 22^nd.

I’d really love to chat with others who need support as I’m really struggling. I’ve been super motivated the last 3-4 weeks as I have not missed one day of working out. However with only a 5lb loss I’m starting to feel discouraged.

Anyone else out there?

I was banded 3 yrs ago. I lost 68 lbs and have not been able to lose anymore. I would like a support buddy as well to help me get back on track.

Can I join you both ? It will be 3 years in August that I was banded. I lost 70 pounds the first 2 years and nothing this last year, I actually gained about 10 over the winter.

I am back on track, finally. I had my first fill over 9 months last week and it seems to be helping. I haven't really had any restriction in a while. I have also changed my goal. I was original hoping to go down to 135, now I would be happy with 140-145.

I've been running and walking to try to get the scale moving again.
