There are two things I'm proud of here: firstly, I've just about managed to lose half of my pre-band weight. And second of all, this latest weigh-in comes after a two and 1/2 week long trip to America, from which I returned weighing less than what I did before starting out on that journey.

Wishing you all happiness and success, Bandpal

Just checking in for the first time since February. Moved my weight marker from 100 lbs to 115 lbs lost. Not bad for two years. I'm having a bit of a struggle right now because I had an upper GI and discovered I had complete blockage from the band, so they've let the Fluid out and I can eat about 75 to 80 percent normally. I've gained about 10 pounds and have taken 2 of that off. Can't wait until December, when hopefully I'll get a bit refilled.

I have not been on this site for a while... (bad bad me). I decided it was time to come back for a little moral support... and maybe a little advise on the current issues/problem I am experiencing.

I really need to get back on track!!!!

I just posted a thread about what is going on with me... any advice would be appreciated from my Nymph sisters

http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f255/does-weight-gain-make-your-band-tighter-106228/#post1369941

Currently, I am at 74lbs lost... (gained 7 the past few months) :confused:

Sorry I have been MIA. This semester has been about to kill me. I have been swamped. Fortunately I'm down to just a few random assignments and I will be on break.

I have lost 20 lbs since I checked in last!! It's funny I didn't realize how thin I was until I saw some pictures that my professor had take. Wow!! I'm tiny. LOL Not a discription I would have used two years ago. :thumbup: I hope everyone is doing well.

[shortgal 5]

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to update you on my status since losing my band after having it only eight months. It's been almost 1.5 years since losing my band.

I am holding steady on my weight. I admit, it's not easy and sometimes is a bigger struggle than other times. My walking has been a tremendous help both for maintaining my weight and my mental health. It has also helped shape my body and I find I have a real waistline now!

I wish I had lost more weight before losing the band, but not sure I would be able to maintain that lower weight anyway without the help of a band or some restrictive surgery.

I still have a big fear of gaining the weight back and if I need to at some point I will consider another surgical option.

Oh and I am happy to announce I am going to be a grandmother!!! My daughter is expecting a girl in June.

Hope all the November Nymphs are well.

[Skinny_Jill 36]

Hi everyone!

Shortgal - Good job maintaining your weight. I am struggling even with my band. Congrats on the grandbaby coming soon.

Momto1plus1 - Congrats on your amazing accomplishment. I want to see the "tiny" pictures. I need some inspiration.

My battle - I got down to 144 which was only 9 pounds from my goal. I am now back to 158. Ick! I feel fat again. I must get back to the gym and stop eating out. I've been at 158 for a while now so this is the place that I can easily maintain but it is not the weight I want to be. It is definitely better than 222 but I want that 144 again. I brought my lunch today and I will take 1 day at a time.

I hope everyone is well.

Jill

[shortgal 5]

Jill,

Don't be so hard on yourself! I used to believe that if I just had a working band, then this whole weight thing would be a breeze and I wouldn't struggle so much, but you know, I see lots of banded people AND gastric bypass people that still struggle.

I guess for some of us, food will always be an issue.

Little things I've learned:

A cup of coffee in the afternoon can get me through late afternoon until dinner time.

An apple fills me for an hour.

Treats (sweets) need to be occasional, not everyday.

I look for the best choice when several items are presented in front of me. (Ok, at least most of the time, I do).

I splurge once in awhile, mostly if I've walked a lot over that week to offset it.

All this effort and I am still overweight, but I am way better off than I was a few years ago, so I'll take it!

And in MHO 158 is not fat, but I totally understand that you want to be back to the lowest you've been.

I have four pounds to get back to my lowest (which is definitely higher than 158) and it's like pulling teeth to get there!!! Hopefully when the weather gets better and I start walking regularly, that will happen!

Good Luck to us both.

I've been here for a while, now - weighing a little more than half of what I used to before the band, and maintaining it for nearly a year.

Edited February 13, 2010 by bandpal

[shortgal 5]

That's great that your maintaining Bandpal, if you were still losing you might disappear completely!

Congrats on being HALF the man you used to be!

[bandpal 7]

Shortgal, if I am "Half the Man I Used to Be" then you truly are:

THE BANDLESS WONDERWOMAN!

THANKS FOR STAYING AROUND FOR SUPPORT AND INSPIRATION!
