6th fill was my sweet spot and in ONEDERLAND!!!!

So last month I had my 6th fill and i've finally hit my sweet spot. I won't be going in this month because i'm steadily losing every week which is awesome. I am finally in onederland!!! I weighed in this morning at 198 yipee!!

This is soooo exciting. I went shopping on the weekend at Pennington's and I am a size 14. I won't be able to shop there anymore because that's the smallest size they have. Can you believe it - I have to shop at regular stores now. AWESOME!!!

I am so looking forward to this summer at the beach. My goal is getting closer and closer. I love love love my band. Thank you slimband.

CONGRATULATION!! THAT IS AWESOME!! YES, I'M YELLING BECAUSE IT IS SO AWESOME!!

Ha! I absolutely LOVE to hear about successes like this. You must feel GREAT!! Have fun shopping at the "regular" stores. I hope to be there myself soon!

Keep it up!

Congratulations! Onederland! I am so very proud of you! Congratulations and continued success!

Yay! Getting under 200 is fantastic! I'm hoping to get there before my bandiversary Aug 31. I'm very happy for you!

Thanks for your comments. It makes everything worth while when people say nice things. The hardest part is believing that I can actually fit into smaller clothes. I hold them up and think - there is NO WAY that I am going to be able to get into that. And then magically those pants fit over my hips and I look in the mirror and say wow - I can't believe it. It's still hard for my head to get around. But very exciting. All of you are going to love it shopping when you get to this point. I PROMISE!!!

thats great!! it give me hope. I have my 4th fill coming up . I have zero restriction and i am hoping this fill will put me one step closer to my "sweet spot"

I am staying away from shopping I have a closet full of clothes that have to fit... get loose... fall off of me before i need to buy some. It will be so nice to go into a regular store and try something that will fit.

Good for you enjoy!!!!!

I tried to stay away from shopping as long as possible - I just worked my way down my wardrobe as long as I could as I had many sizes in there. But eventually you will have to break down and by some new clothes because they will be way to big. Plus - I some how had it in my mind that when I went for a fill that I would magically would be at my sweet spot that day. It doesn't work that way - at least not for me. It can take up to a week or two after a fill to really adjust to a fill. Like when I went in for my 6th fill I was great all month - then all of a sudden I got really tight and had to go and get some out because it was too tight. Now I feel much better. Still losing and feel great. I think stress, or not feeling well or the weather - all these things can make the band tighter. Sometimes even if you are sick and throw up a little too much. It's hard to tell. But what ever it is - I can tell the signs now when to stop eating. I get this feeling at the back of my throat like I have a bubble or I have to burp and then I know that I have had enough. If I keep eating past that point I will just be sick. So I listen to my body more and just say to myself - okay - my body is satisfied. And I tell my mind that I can always have more some other day - and to just get over it. Then the little fat girl inside of my cries a little and stamps her foot with a sad little grumble and walks away. And the confident, proud thinnier woman who is in control scraps her plate into the garbage and does the dishes!!!:cursing:
