Lack of Updates

I don't know if anyone reads this thing other than myself. Normally, I don't care, because it allows me to get my thoughts out in front of me. I guess the reason I haven't updated lately is because there isn't much to report. I haven't made much progress since I lost the 30 lbs. I've just kind of maintained that weight and can't get over the hump. I feel bad that I had my surgery 6 months ago and all I've managed to lose is 30 lbs. I know, 30 lbs isn't a small feat, but I feel like it is compared to what I see other lapbanders lose. One girl had hers done in February and has lost over 80 lbs. I want to be that person.

One of the best advice I can give you as a fellow bandster is DO NOT Compare yourself to ANYONE.
On Lap Band talk there are those "Groups" for bandsters who are banded the same day,month , week ect as each other. Personally those are the WORST things you can get in . DO NOT compare yourself. Everyone loses differently . The way I look at is this. "protacal" says if you lose 1-3 pds a WEEK on average your doing "Normal" SO as long as your doing that , your fine ! IF not then its time to adjust ( I need to do the same thing right now ) weather it be time for a fill , time to get off your ass ( which is my case ) and move or what ever it is. But compare yourself to YOU No one else , this journey is hard enough as it is with out setting yourself up for failure that way !
