Girl 2 years later this video is still so funny and relateable. I am just starting my lap bad jouney now. Had my surgery August 12 so this is all very relevant. I love your videos and your humor. Thank you thank you. I have seen your transformation and am hoping and praying for the same. The "ballooned to 180" comment is hilarious!!
I can totally feel your frustration.You are six weeks post op maybe you are retaining fluids, or you may be slightly dehydrated. Are you drinking enough water? Are you getting enough protein? Stay positive, and make sure you discuss your concerns with your surgeon at your fill appt.And yes I have seen the show "I Lost It" Some of the shows were inspirational,but I agree the narrator is drama happy. Gook luck, stay strong!
I am still laughing - I love your humorous sarcasm - "she ballooned to 180!" I get frustrated by the 'calorie crunchin' people' too. :) I think there is something to having enough essential oils and omega 3 fatty acids, and other nutritional aspects that maybe we don't understand, and I think that the point that losingoneme said is probably worth a shot too. Also, use mental imagery on what you want (not what you don't want) as much as possible. I am with you, keep trying! -Mia
Hi Mia, I am going to try the mental imagery--that is a good idea. I have been focused on the weight I am not loosing. I will let you know how it goes,. Thanks for the encouragement.
you are too funny! i understand your frustration but a really good friend of mine had the band last january and lost slowly at first, but by the 9th month out she was down 100lbs. Hang in there... your time is coming too!
I had my band put in on 9/20... I only lost a few pounds after the band was put in... but now after just one fill at the end of Oct I have already lost 30lbs. The weight will start to drop off after your fill... Trust me!
I think I have seen that Discovery channel show.. I noticed that too, the naration really sucked..LOL! You are so fun to watch, I love your videos! That woman probably gained the weight back after that show.. LOL.. Any weight loss is temporary unless you change your life forever.. That's what we are trying to do girl.. Keep on trying your hardest every day, and you will make it! Becky
Great, I know the fill will get you right on track. I had a slight breakdown about the surgery yesterday, But I am good to go now! Tijuana here I come!
You are so funny. "She ballooned to 180". I know this is radical, but try upping your calories. When I was at 500 I was not seeing loss. I hover around 750-800 and voila! The nurse at my support group says to aim between 800 and 1000. I can tell you with all honesty, if I eat too little, that scale does not budge!

You are doing great girl, hang in there. You crack me up! I think u seriously should look into Stand-Up Comedy :D. I love ur videos.
Have u thought that maybe ur not eating enough calories... if u eat too little, ur body will go into starvation mode and store more fat.

I know you are right but I am so scared to eat anymore for fear of gaining. But I will try.
