HelenC 0 Posted July 16, 2007 I was banded on 2/14/07, and rapidly lost 30 lbs, but the last 24.5 have been incredibly hard to get off. I've been discouraged and unhappy, as I PB several times a week, even now. On Monday, a food will go down fine, but on Tuesday, it makes me sick. I quit coming in here because I felt like a failure, but it's time for me to get accountable for my actions and yes, I've seen the February Accountability Thread and will be posting there. I just can't figure out why the foods that are so bad for you go down so easily...and stay down....while the good foods come back on me. My hair has been falling out by the handfuls...I'm just grateful that I had a ton of hair to start with! I started getting religious with my multi-Vitamins and have added a liquid B-Complex and B-12. The B-Complex has 200% of the RDA of Folic Acid, and this morning, finally, the loss appears to have slowed down. I'll be checking in frequently again, as I think this forum does help me stay on track. Who of the February babies are still around?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris_NJ 9 Posted July 16, 2007 Your average is around 2.5 a week ! Thats GREAT ! Don't be disappointed you are exceeding the band average weight loss of 1-2 lbs a week. Get your but back in gear and you will do even better ! :clap2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toniteach 0 Posted July 16, 2007 I think you're doing GREAT, too. I wish the weight would just fall off with hardly any effort, but I guess that's not going to happen with us!!!! Hang in there, and know I can comisserate about the throwing up good foods, it's so frustrating!!!! Cheers, Toni Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
