3 month anniversary of Band

Well I have lost 24 pounds. averages to 2 pounds a week. It is really about 1 pound a week now and I struggle. I do exercise 6 days a week. Done something stupid couple of weeks ago. I swallowed a decongestion pill whole and it got stuck. Could not keep food down. I drank 1/4 cup of diet coke to dissolve the pill and it worked. so only liquid meds for now.

Can't believe i forgot my best news. I am completely off my diabetic meds and cholesterol meds after 11 weeks post op. Yeah. No more glucophage...:thumbdown:

I was banded on 06/15/09. According to my scale this a.m I have lost 19lbs. I gained 4 lbs these last two weeks. I was sick and I know I should have taken sugar free med's but that's what my DH brought home and whatever he brought home for dinner. bad girl. I go for a fill tomorrow, so I hope it jump starts my weight loss again. Congrats on your 24lbs!!!
