| Hello. I am new to this board. I have lost 100 pounds since my surgery November 2003. I would like to lose another 50 lbs before I contemplate cosmetic surgery for the sagging skin. While I am thrilled that I have lost this much, I feel that the journey has been a very slow process for me. I seem to hover over 180 lbs and can seem to do anything about it. Has anyone or is anyone experiencing this and has made a break through?
Don't get me wrong. I am thrilled that I have lost weight and more thrilled that I no longer have to take meds for Type 2 Diabetes and Acid Reflux and that I have more energy. Just need help over this hump? Any help is greatly appreciated.

City: Boise State: Idaho | Hiyas MLJ, welcome to LBT! Congrats on your excellent weight loss and kicking the Diabetes and Reflux out of your life!
As for the hump.. If it were me, I'd go back to square one of the journey and start fresh. Take a serious look at what you're eating now by journaling your food intake, paying attention to calories and proteins. If you're not exercising, start. If you already do exercise, try changing your routine. Sometimes our bodies become so accustom to the same old thing, that it needs to be shaken up a bit. Add in some extra cardio, swim, ride a bike. It's summertime and you've got to be feeling more like living now!
Also, if you aren't drinking water now's a good time to start. Check out this article, I think you'll find it very helpful. Pay close attention to how they determine how much water you should be drinking. http://www.inch-aweigh.com/water.html
Nice to meet ya. I look forward to celebrating your goal weight when you hit it. Won't be long now will it? :) | |

| All of you are so inspiring to those of us just starting the Lap Band journey. I was banded Feb. 28 and had my second fill Friday, May 26. I've lost 32 pounds to date. I want to learn how to make a page like you all do. Where do I go to learn how to make a website with my name, loss chart, etc.? Is it easy to do?

| Everyone is doing so great how exciting and encouraging for all of us!!
I'm not sure what I'm at now, but I think I'm about 70 down. I'd like 40 more and then see what happens. It sure is exciting!

|  Good Job
You have done a wonderful job!! don't concentrate in the 50 lbs you have left be proud of what you have aready accomplised.
I know it sounds easier said than done but you will reach your goal. Are you exercising, drinking water, resting, and following the rules of the Lap Band diet?
Bread, white sugar, pasta, potatoes and rice are a No No according to my Dr (Felix Spiegel) and it worked for 1 year. When I started to "try" the foods that my friends and other patients talked about (while I was in the Drs office) I began to stop losing and feel bad. I have been boucing back and forth for 2 months at the same weight and its all me.!!
I AM NOT DOING WHAT I KNOW WILL WORK.!!!
Try a different exercise routine (if you are exercising) and walk as much as possible and remember *what got you to the 100lb loss it still works today* take a day at a time and watch those lbs melt away. | |
