tabria28 0 Posted June 18, 2009 I've been banded for voer a year, and so far I have GAINED 30lbs. its my fault, and I've had so much stress over the last year, with starting college and family problems, that my weight fluctuated...until i just ballooned to my highest weight. Please, anybody that has been in the same situation, or can help me start to get back on track, I would really appreciated. I'm 19, so I would love if anyone that was younger who would be more relatable help me, BUT in all honestly, if theres ANYBODY, AGE SEX WHATEVER I DON'T CARE. i'm on my knees begging for someone to just give me a boost in the right direction because I've sort of hit rock bottom with this thing. Thank You, T Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brockbabe82 0 Posted June 18, 2009 First off let this be the start of your new band life. Don't look back anymore, look forward. You need to make a conscious effort to start following the rules of the band. Then you need to start incorporating exercise in your day. One thing you really need to do is make the band one of your most significant priorities. The band will make you happier, healthier, and perhaps better equipped to deal with the stressors in your life. Take it day by day, hour by hour if you have to. Just remember you have a whole family of supporters here to help. Anytime you need to talk email me, I will try my best to help you. The most important thing you need to know is you ARE worth it!

Bassman47 0 Posted June 19, 2009 Don't get frustrated. I would reccomend that you find a good support group or a good " coach ". This approach will help you focus on the triggers, habits and reasons you might be slipping. remember the band is only one tool in your daily life that will assist you in reaching you goals if you have defined them. If I can help with any issues contact me. I'm 6-2 was banded 1/26/08 and weighted 304 today I'm at 203. i had my ups and downs but regained my focus and am very plesed with where I am today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
