Guest guest Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 , I too put on 5 pounds from the holidays. Stop beating yourself up. Get back on the wagon. You should be proud of yourself for doing something about it. How many times in the past have you gained more than five pounds over the holidays? I'm proud of you for making the appointment....I just had my after holiday fill....it pushes you back on track. It was hard to admit I slipped, but thats the beautiful thing about this band....I'm able to do something about the digression and I don't feel so helpless and alone. Also I wanted to confess to you that I had my band last March. I wante to lose 100 pounds by my 30th birthday which was Monday....I only made it to 75 pounds. I felt like I let myself down, but I had to stop and realize how hard I've worked. Point is I believe in you...make the call From: Pruitt <mkjnpruitt@...>Subject: Embarrassed Date: Saturday, February 7, 2009, 3:24 AM I need a fill, but I am embarrassed to go get it. I was doing really well. And then the holidays hit and I told the family we are not going to deprive ourselves, we will enjoy the holidays and after the first of the year we will get back on our healthy plan. I did ok, of course I can't eat as much as I used to be able to in holidays past, but the sugar, the mashed potates with real butter and heavy cream, the gravies, the simple carbs. Even eating small portions catches up to you, plus the lack of exercising (this time of the year, i might as well live at work), lack of sleep, etc all adds up. I only gained about 5 lbs back. But now I feel like I'm eating too much, even if it is healthy. But since I haven't lost any significant weight since my last fill, I'm embarrassed to see the Dr. and admit that I'm not doing well. Sometimes I feel the restriction, but most of the time I don't. We should have stayed the course through the holidays, but it is difficult to have company and not make that food they are so used to. My boys grew up with all kinds of home made goodies (breads, desserts, candies, etc). Maybe if i just get some support I'll feel better and maybe that's just all i need. I only have about 30 pounds left to go before my goal. I was hoping to get there by March, but that looks a little unrealistic now. Great Deals on Dell Laptops. Starting at $499.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Don't feel bad we all fallen off the wagon. You just need to get back on. I don't think there is one banster that hasn't. Just keep moving forward and do one day at a time. You'll make you goal maybe not by march but how about may or june. Make a commitment to you self to start fresh and before you know it you be at your goal.
