Size 14's!!

Went to my favorite store (CATO) last week and bought some size 14 jean capris! Tried them on and they fit well...not to tight. After wearing them they loosened up alot! I cant believe it...SIZE 14!!! I also bought a blouse....large! It feels wonderful!! I have an appointment on Friday for another fill. I'm thinking I may not need one. I'm worried about being overfilled. Nothing gets stuck and I stay satisfied after eating for about 4 hours. Right now I have 5.75cc in my band. The hunger pains died down after the last fill. It didnt seem that way at first but about 2 weeks later I started feeling like my band had gotten tighter. I got on the scale this morning and it read 237!! 54lbs lost!! I'm still keeping up with my 4 workouts a week....I feel guilty if I don't go to the gym...I'm loving the way my body is changing for the better!

You're doing great! I wouldnt get another fill if I were you.... and I was you a few months ago. I went in for a fill and it was horrible. I kept getting stuck, throwing up and unable to get enough calories in. It was horrible. I ended up going back to where I was - about where you are now. Stay there! Believe me, being over filled does not mean weight will come off faster. Im in a 12 now and I would still like to loose another 20 lbs. I only loose about .5 pounds a week....so it takes a long time!

Size 14.......wow, that is wonderful. I also have 5.7 cc and going for another fill next week but thinking about not getting it because I feel I have enough like you. I did get an over fill once and she is right, it is not pretty when you can not even get a protein shake down and then go back for an unfill. So really think about it before you get your fill just like I am going to really think about it......LOL I am in 16 but kind of tight but can wear it all day long but rather be in that 18. I am getting the loose skin now and hating it. Swimming is my exercise which I just started to do but is helping.

Again, congrats on your size 14 and lets both get into that onederland like others talk about.
