Before/during photos - 7 mo out.
Hi Ryan, Rob and you are my heroes... How often did you exercise? What was your exercise regimen during the losing phase? Specific food plan? I don't know what is going on, but after 32 lbs in the first month, I've been t a stall for the past 2 weeks ( going on 2 months now in 11 more days). I'm watching my carb intake + exercising at least 5 days a week for 1 hour of cardio in addition to daily weight training alternating upper and lower. Sunday is my off day. Any advice you could give is very much appreciated. Thanks 
Pre-op/HW: 302- SW (7/16/2012): 296 lbs- GW: 160-150 lbs. Month 1: -32 lbs.- Month 2: -16 lbs.

Thank you all! (And HI, BEAVER!!! :))
My dh has a lapband and he's looking pretty svelte as well. I did a pretty good job on our cruise sticking to protein and produce. I had dessert each night, but never ate all of it (nor did I eat all of anything else that was served me). I didn't gain anything at all on the trip!
It's hard getting back to regulating my eating again. But I did fine yesterday (ate more than usual b/c I was grazing, but all of it was lean protein and fresh produce) and I'm doing fine today as well. I'll work on making sure my portions get more and more regulated by the end of the week. Once I'm back in the office, it will be much easier. As a matter of fact, even though I'm approved to work from home the rest of the week, I may go into the office tomorrow just to get back on schedule.
The advantage to working at home is that I can make dinner so that we all have a nice lean protein and fresh vegetables and fruit at dinner. We got in the habit of having more processed foods during a recent kitchen remodel and I want to get us out of that habit while I'm home. Since my dh gets home before I do, he usually makes dinner and I guess he's gotten out of the habit of planning and preparing meals.
Tonight we are having lean homemade meatballs in jarred spaghetti sauce with a nice salad. A perfect meal if you ask me, even though the sauce is jarred. I
