It's Awful Not To Be In Control!

After 6 weeks unfilled, I was finally given a fill to 1.0 (out of 4.0). Basically, there was no difference. My second fill a few weeks ago was .8 so I now have 1.8 I still have almost no restriction. I can go again in a couple more weeks for a third fill, but do I want to pay for another fill if I am going to have gall bladder surgery? Being unfilled, the old food obsessions came flooding back. I was hungry all the time. I picked up about 14 pounds since February. I have since lost 4, so I still

Oh the gall!

Last Tuesday, (Feb.26th) I started with intense pain between my breastbone, and on my right side. The pain was also radiating out my back between my shoulder blades. I had intense nausea, vomiting and gas pain. It was terrible. I threw up until my esophagus swelled shut. The doctor is most sure I had a stone stuck in the duct of my gall bladder. Further testing revealed that it is not functioning (dumping) the way that it should be. My doctor unfilled me all the way. I am now on a low fat, liqui

Teenagers Can Make You Grey!

2/20/08 (175 lbs.- down 2) My nineteen year old son was charged with pot possession two weeks ago. I have been on such an emotional roller coaster. I am angry, scared, frustrated, sad and embarrassed all rolled into one. He has officially moved back home. This has changed the family dynamics. My seventeen year old son is very quiet. You barely know he's here. The nineteen year old is hyper, noisier, and much messier. I was fixing small meals for three. Hubby and I are dieting, and younger son do

Dealing With Emotional Pain

I'm tired, and emotionally I've been in alot of pain. My teen is really in trouble, and I have been feeling mentally exhausted. My band has been so tight last week, and it still is. Since Saturday it has been somewhat better. Well, at least I don't need a fill anymore. I've been working on stress management all weekend. Saturday hubby and I took off and spent the day antique shopping. I should say antique browsing, because we didn't even buy anything. It was just nice to give my brain a break f

Stress and my band

February 7, 2008- My restriction has not been perfect. I felt I needed a small fill. I was away for a couple of days last week, and I was able to eat more than I should have. I've been at this long enough now to know where my "sweet spot" is. Well, I'm glad I didn't get that fill. On last Sunday night I had some issues with one of my children. He's been a difficult teen, and well, it's just been frustrating and upsetting sometimes. Monday morning I woke up and could barely get my coffee down, so

A new story

January 24, 2008 (177) Yay! I'm back on track and losing weight again. My jeans don't feel as tight, and I feel better. Here's a new story I wanted to share... Two Sundays ago we went to Bob Evans Restaurant after church. Hubby dropped me off out front and went to park the car. The hostess seated me right away. We were walking back to the table when a man I've never met approached me. He said "Would you believe I've lost 198 pounds with gastric bypass?" I was taken aback, and said something l
