Fell off of the Lap Band Wagon!!!

I was Banded in 2005 and have been very successful until the last few years up and down and up and down. I was frustrated with myself and my old habits started to creep back in. Eating in the car, drinking with meals and bad food choices. I had my band filled today. I feel that I am starting to get that fire back that I cannot give up or return to the person that I was. I am still at a 70ish pound weight loss so I am proud of that. Anyway, I am looking for some Lap Band buddies for support and to keep me accountable. I would love to have a friend that is or was in s similar situation. Good luck to all and have a great night :flowerforyou:

    I had the sleeve 3 years ago, so I'm not a "band buddie", just wanted to pop in a say congratulations on the loss so far and great job at catching things before it got too far out of control!

  • I know that feeling of slacking. And I know when I'm doing it. My biggest problems are remembering to take small bites and chew thoroughly or it will feel stuck. I also need to slow down the pace that I am eating. The other thing is remember to eat your protein first off the plate or I won't get enough. I'm trying to get another 5 lbs down before vacation at the end of the month.
    I need to keep moving forward and not get mentally lazy.
