My trip to Kansas City for my first fill

Okay here it goes....

I was so excited to get my first fill that the 3hr drive didn't even phase me!

I guess I had unreal expectations because I have been so hungry lately ,that I would be full after a few bites. Well I was wrong.

I still get my daily protein in with no problems because I can eat more than a cup. I try to stop. Sometimes I eat a cup of food then wait 30min drink and wait till I can eat again in 3hrs.

I work out 3x a week and I am ready to bump up to 4x week.

I guess I was just hoping that I wouln't be so hungry.

I go in for my next fill in 3 weeks.

Frustration has built up so bad. I hear about so many that have lost so much already and I am afraid to step on the scale. I just don't want to see poor results.

    Try not to set yourself up to fail: don't compare you to anybody else. I've been there and sometimes its a high and sometimes its a low.

    It sounds like you are in "bandster hell". Working the plan without having the band provide much (if any) support. Keep up your hard work and positive attitude!

    From one who (on the second fill) is coming closer to the sweet spot. :-) Its alot easier to preach patience now than it was 6 weeks ago lol. But trust me it gets easier.......
