Trying to reach 200 by the end of summer

My surgeon for my lapband wants to see me get down to 200 lbs. by the end of summer. I really could use some help. I had the surgery in March 2011 and then had major health problems that layed me up for most of the spring, fall and winter so didn't lose that much at first. I started originally at 255 on surgery day and as of today weigh 217.8. I need to lose another 18 pounds. Please help and suggestions are welcome. You can reach me at 1502kathy:blushing:

Protein, protein, protein! Lots of water. I had lap band surgery in 2005 and saw the bottomside of 200 for the first time in years about 8 months later. I immediately got pregnant, and that was the beginning of my problems. I ended up having it removed in January this year and hit 300 lbs this summer. It is depressing, but I feel like I am finally on the right track. Friend me, and we can keep tabs on each other. I won't hit 200 by the end of summer, but hope to get there eventually!0
