BooBoo,

I drink Herbalife Meal Replacement shakes with added protien powder that they have. I love the new one Cafe' Latte. It is coffee flavored. Before I discovered them I was drinking Body for Life Soy Protien mix which is good as well. The Herbalife I can get 40+ mg of protien.

And how is maintenance going for you Boo Boo?

Thanks for asking Paula!

but....I don't know yet I am still loosing...lol...I am truly trying to add calories in slowly, but I can't wrap my mind around it. It is funny you have the battle to loose, and then you get with the battle to stop loosing...never thought that would be so hard! I am no longer weighing myself, I had to stop. But now I am having to belt my 28" pants or they fall down. It doesn't sound so bad unless you factor in that I am 6". I am starting to scare myself.

I too am just shy of 6 ft. Boo Boo, have you thought of getting a slight defill?

I have been quite successful in adding back a few calories. I just eat more often. But I know my band isn't as tight as yours. Keep healthy my dear.

BTW, LOVE your new pic on the before/after board.

and BTW, BTW, How come you get to be a size 6 and I am still a size 12? NO FAIR!

I know I need a slight unfill, but I can not seem to let the control go. I am eating small Snacks of string cheese now and thinking I am ok...my brain needs a revamp I believe! Funny it goes that way eh?

How are you still a 12? I see you are just a bit more than me. Maybe you should change where you shop! lol... I have no butt left at all sad to say....and I am a 6 in Spanx to hold in the stomach skin...lol...so maybe I cheat??

You are amazing! Thank you so much for posting this! Really gives me hope I can do it again.

I was banded by Dr. Morton five years ago and lost 110 lbs. I got off track and gained 15 back when I needed to lose another 50. : (

I am getting a fill from him this month. The first one in years. I feel badly that I've not appreciated the band as it really did change my outlook and how I feel so much.

Your weight loss is an inspiration to me! Thank you, Holly

Thank you Holly! Good luck to you! You can get back on track, that is the REAL beauty of the band! And loosing 110 and only gaining 15 is great! Don't feel so bad, you could have gained alot more! Just keep focusing on the fact that you CAN DO THIS! Good luck!

Heck no, I need to shop where YOU shop. My measurements are about 40, 30, 40".

I love my new thighs at 22 1/2". Used to be about 28"

I hear you on letting the control go, I understand. I am not ready to let any fill go yet either. I will see how the maintenance goes.

Just got back from my learn to jog program. Dare I say I think I am starting kinda SORTA like jogging.....

Boo....:thumbup:I just wanted to congratulate you and say that you a true inspiration. I am banded as of 8/14/07 and have lost 26.5lbs. I still have about 55-60 to yet (or even a little more...started at 191& doc says my ideal body wt is 112). I think I can do this and your story and others like it really do inspire. Thanks again. Oh and any meal preps you can help with will be appreciated also. :thumbup:

BBK thank you so much for your encouragement. I am in the beginnning of the process and have not yet been banded. Many sites say that people only lose 50 percent of their excess weight which was really discouraging me and making me think maybe gastric bypass was the way even though I really didn't want that. People like you are what is making me go foward and trust that God ahs a bigger plan for me and that I can do this!!!!!!! Thank you so much. I cannot wait to be able to share my progress along the way!
