gettin back on track

so funny how things go hand in hand. i feel ive been a bit off track. im a 6cc in a 11cc band. i go for my 3rd fill in 2 weeks. also i looked and im not on this site as much so its easy to forget ive been banded. as weird as that might sound.:frown:

i have a tool! i need to use it!:thumbup:

back to liquids for a couple days for me. i know i can do it. i need to be focused. back to the gym today for me too. i can just feel that my next fill will help me. i just know it. when people use to say "oh ive gained on the band or oh it doesnt work" well now i know why. its because they gave up. they didnt get re-focused. its so easy to lose the focus. and i dont wanna be that person. im not gonna give up on my band. im gonna get re focused. :)

i cant wait to find my "sweet spot" thats gonna be awesome. but in the meantime i need to stop eating the sweets!:redface:

Best wishes to you my friend. I got my third fill and that did it for me..... I have never been so full in all my life. To the point that some days I think I should go get an un-fill. But this is when the band is working for me. I did not even feel the results of the 3rd fill until 4 to 5 days later so go slow and be careful if you know what I mean. I never feel hungry and that can be bad. I need to force myself the eat three to four times a day to get in all the protein. Glad to hear you are getting back on track we need to help each other out. I know you can do it. Just look at how well you have done so far. Here's 3 cheer's for you and your success. imaluckydog

I feel the exact same way, I recieved my 2nd fill this past Wed., I had gained 3 lbs. I have been working out since I started on the 6th of January. My Dr. says it is muscle that I have gained, my body is doing silly things, because when I weighed Fri. morning I had lost the 3lbs. I gained. Since the second fill, I still don't feel the restriction I want to feel, when I am eating. I had my surgery on Nov. 2nd, I have lost 32 lbs. I was hoping to be at 40 lbs. by now. I only recieved 1 and half cc's this time. I was reading a recent post, the person brought up a liquid diet, maybe this will jump start my weight loss again. My Dr. says to give it time and stop stressing.
