WOOHOOOO!!! HOORAY!! Thats some AWSOME news girl!!

Im finally starting to feel a little better. Once I found out exactly what food plan I was supposed to follow, it seems like my light has finally turned on. I hope it keeps shining bright

Its like I finally REMEMBERED why I got the band. Its not a magic wand, its a tool. I remembered when I decided to have the surgery that I knew that then! I knew it was a tool and I had to work with it. It was like I was finally hearing things instead of just listening. Just eating smaller portions of the same crap is going to keep me at this weight. Eating smaller portions of the good stuff is what gets the weight off. DUH! I know this...I dunno, its hard to explain! lol

I dont know what happened, who smacked me or what...but I hope to keep the momentum going!

I know it's frustrating I was at a stall for two months. The weight is slowly going off again but I have so many fluctuations its crazy. I spoke to my nutritionist and she asked me exactly what I was doing. I kept drinking while I was eating and I know that will make you not lose any weight. Keep the faith that the scale will start to go down again. I know its not easy and it gets stressful. I wish you all the best and don't get discouraged.

Marla,

GOOD FOR YOU!! 

Hope you have a good Dr. vist.  Those freakin scales.  I never wanted to get on one before.  Now, it is so hard to stay off of it.  I am weighing in on Friday.  I hope I have news as good as yours.

Have a good day and thanks for sharing.

Ok, I am totally with you on this one.. Wow, how frustrating it is to stall.  I am unable to exercize still because of my hip fracture and stress of not working and loss of income all have created tremendous stress and frustration.  I have lost about 96 lbs now but have so much more to go.  I did up my protein by having a protein shake during the day or for breakfast to up it, vitamins and cutting carbs down to almost anything.  I did drop a couple pounds but nothing to what Ishould be losing. 
My only suggestion to those in the same boat is to increase exercize, up the protein signifigantly and lower the carbs along with plenty of water.  see if that helps..My instinct always says, BACK TO BASICS.. go back to the begining and start over or as many people do, journal your food intake...
As my friends keep telling me that sometimes it's not you at all, it might just be your body playing catch up...anyhow, keep up the good work and stay on track... you have done well and will finish the race...
See you at the finish line!!!!!
