Been a While

Wow, I didn't realize I hadn't posted since January! Well things are still going fairly well. I have been seeing the dr. every 6 weeks, so I am not sure where I am at with fills but I am down 70 pounds now - 30 pounds since my last post, which most of that weight was taken off in January and February! I opted one visit not to put a fill in because I was throwing up a little too much.   My last visit was this past Monday and I had a .4 fill, and boy what a difference it is making! I am ha

Still chugging along

Well I had my 4th fill today - my 3rd fill was with 3.6 cc's. I was able to see a little difference if I didn't chew my food, but that was it. Today they gave me 1.6. So I am happy with that. I can already feel the difference when I drink. If I drink too much or too fast it comes back up. I am guess that I really need to becareful when I start eating tomorrow night.   I am down 40 pounds so far and although I know it should be much more I am happy so far. I am down to 265 and hope to b

day #62

Went for my 2nd fill today - I lost another 10 pounds over the past 29 days. Which is quite amazing since I have been eating anything and everything the past 2 weeks with no working out at all.   As for my fill, I got another 2 cc's put in but it wasn't an easy task. I was stuck 3 times by one assistant, who then gave up and called someone else in. After much moving, repositioning he finally found it. FUN FUN!   I really hope that these additional 2 cc's make the world of difference for

First Fill - day #33

:thumbup:   Well the past 3 weeks have been interesting. I haven't really lost any weight (only 2 pounds) because of not having any restriction, and god knows I have NO will power on my own and once I learned I could eat a slice of pizza I did...however I woke up on Sunday and changed that thought and got back on track. My first fill was quite easy. It didn't really hurt at all, I did feel it but it didn't hurt at all. They put in 2 cc's and the doctor said if I am still feeling like I

Day #17

Well I am down 20 pounds, but very very constipated. ExLax i my only relief and although I know it isn't the solution, twice a week isn't the worst thing right?   I have been on soft foods since Wednesday night and loving every minute of it. Sushi never tasted so good, taliapia, salmon... but I am still longing for my veggies, I need them bad!   I have noticed that since my band isn't filled I can tolerate not chewing chewing and chewing, not that I am not chewing at all, but I havent h

Day #12

Well I am still holding strong.   The scale has been on a 17 pound loss for a few days now, and I beleive the constipation issue that I was having is the reason. So I added a calcium supplement with fiber, but it didn't help. I finally went and purchased some ex-lax...what a difference! I fell so much better today!   I had been having severe back pain, and I really beleive it had to do with with constipation. Well it seemed to get better today, thank god.   Today I had my first meal ou

First Post

Well it has ben 8 days since I had my Band put in and I think I am doing fairly well. I started this journey at 301 pounds. I do not have a goal weight that I want to be, only a list of personal goals that I want to acheive with my weight loss.   My first week on clear liquids went well, if anything it has taught me that I don't need food to survive. Well you know what I mean. I started the mushy phase yesterday with farina for breakfast, sweet potato for lunch and then a yogurt for dinn
