Hey Amy! Just checking to make sure you're doing ok. You haven't posted a video yet and I know you are always consistant each week. Hope to hear from you soon! Keep it up!
Thanks so much for checking up on me. I really appreciate you noticing my abscence. I am a little behind on my comments so I'm trying to catch up. Check out my new videos through week 13! :D
You are making QUICK progress! I agree with you, I think starting weight does have a lot to do with how quick we lose. The larger the patient, the quicker they lose. Same for regular dieting, without surgery. Wish I had gone to the M&G as planned and had met you. I know you had a great time!
I think it is a natural reaction of possible failure (diet) My first 3 months really had me going. There are still some days ( I am a week shy of 8 months out) where, I think my success so far has been a dream and I wake up and be obese again. It really gets the best of me, if I hit a plateau. Your doing fine, enjoy the process. Have a great week !
I wish you continued success in your journey. We have all had doubts. You are definitely not alone, but with determination I am sure you will reach your goal.
Thanks for sharing your 'stuck' experience. It is really helpful for us that are following in your footsteps to hear your experience and what helps! I am glad you felt so much better in the morning.
All I can say is WOW! I always enjoy seeing success! You should be very excited! I hope I can be as successful as you! You keep up the phenomenol success! I get my first fill on April 9, and I can't wait. I fully expect you to reach all of your goals!
I'm not lapband'ed but I read on a blog a while back that some have used, with success, warm water with meat tenderizer. Sounds weird but if it works...
Hay chica, cant wait to see you at the meet & greet. I must say that when you were talking in the beginning about being that 1 person that assumes the lapband wont work w/ them, I felt like you were taking out every word from my thoughts. I felt completly the same. I still do at times. Its so hard for me to think that I will ever hit goal or be skinny. I cant even imagine myself being under 200 because I do nt remember the last time I was there. Its truly amazing and wierd at the same time.
You really are doing amaing! I am so happy for you! You're right i think we all have that doubt.. lol... sometimes i still feel like that.. lol.. but someday.. i'll get some restriction.. lol!! :O) Keep up the GREAT work! -Renee
You're doing amazingly well!! Be happy!! You look great! So glad things are going well for you. I had the exact same doubts! And add to that the stall for weeks before my second surgery, I was actually looking for a gastric bypass surgeon! But I'm glad I didn't. I'm doing ok for my age and my health issues, so I'm glad. Sooo happy for you!!!
Whooo Hoooo ....almost into the 200's!!! You GO girl! It's wonderful to know that there IS hope, and we CAN actually be successful! AND, YES, you can, and will get to normal! Just keep doing what you've been doing! You WILL get there!
Someone in the community had a great solution to the stuck episodes (I think it was AJ0402) that you might want to try next time. I used it once and it worked for me. Take the teeniest sips of pure Olive Oil! Tasts awful but I think it helps things slide through.
Hey - look at you!! You are smokin' and I'm choking on your dust!! lol But, hey, you go for it and I am so happy for you. Yes - you ARE going to get to goal! I feel it!
So close to the 2's girl! You are doing so great! I completely understand what you're saying about the doubt.... I still struggle with those nagging negative voices now and then.
Great job Amy on the weight loss! YAY!!! The rate you are going you will be in twoterville in no time at all!!! Good job! Sorry you got sick! Sounds like a similar situation I was in a couple weeks back,,first time ever and last if I can help it! hehe! Have fun this weekend!!! Can't wait to see all the pics and videos on this amazing weekend! Travel safe kiddos :)

Hi Amy...I'm the queen of this very thing!
don't lay down. it hurts too much! sip a tiny amounts of olive oil and hopefully it will help it pass through.
I cough and expel all the time, but I'm trying to cut that out. I'm glad you're feeling better!
