Watching the pounds fall away

Finally feeling different

I'm finally starting to feel as if I maybe have lost some weight. Tomorrow is another follow-up with Dr Cahn. I'm not planning on getting another fill. I'm eating just fine and losing about 3 pounds a week. I'm satisfied with that.   Paul and I can tell a huge difference between us. There's so much more room when we hug or snuggle. Its odd but wonderful.   I've been fighting depression though. I think I need to go see Margaret and maybe up my Efexor. I keep dragging my feet on that. I don't

Things are changing

Another week begins, and I can't help feeling as if I'm wishing away this year. I will be happy when I can think about something other than losing weight and what food I'm eating. I'm ready for the band to become a PART of my life rather than consuming my life!   Last week Verleen came over every day and we went through the house cleaning everything we could touch. This week, we are working on closets, bathroom drawers, dresser drawers and the like. Possibly the garage if the weather gets nice

Feb 24, 06 (Friday)

The 21st (Tues) was my six weeks follow-up appt with Dr. Cahn. I had lost 39 pounds. Got my first fill (1cc) and went on two days of liquids again. The first day I managed to drink a protein shake with the Slim Fast in it, and also a can of pureed Bean with Bacon soup. The next day I couldnt face the shakes so just had a can of soup. I was so hungry by Thursday that I could have eaten a house, but well.. no, I couldnt! heh   Today I've been tired and really fighting the head hunger. It seems t

1-31-06 (277)   Feeling better today. Yesterday I actually put on make up before going to see Dr. Cahn. He reminded me not to be thinking about weight loss yet, the first six weeks is for healing. He is also going to call St. Al's and see if he can get more done for us because of this burn. I wore my jeans today for the first time since Dec 20th. Size 24s. Very baggy. I have to roll the waist band down a bit. But the 22s are still too small.   Went to Walgreens alone last night. Enjoyed shop

Weighed today. Only a two pound loss after a week. Complete depression hit me and I can't shake it. So worried about all the band erosions I'm reading about here. God I hope I've done the right thing and not wasted my money in search of a pipe dream that will prove to be wasted time, pain and money. *sighs*   Have cried a lot today. Maybe I need to get my Efexor upped.
