Night of 3rd fill

For the first time since I have had the band I am actually feeling real restriciton with liquids even...This has never happened before...I have heard lots of people talking about having to sip sip sip their drinks and it taking an hour or 2 just to get down their protein drinks in the mornings...Well, now I know what they are talking about...I just had a protein drink for dinner and after 2 small drinks I had to actually take a break before I could drink anymore...There was no room left for anything else...And a couple hours ago I almost got sick off of a half cup of small curd cottage cheese...I am really feeling it now...I guess its a good thing that I am finally to this stage and finally have real real restriction...I am totally scare about what is going to happen when I start back on solids on Sunday...If I was having PBs before on my last fill I can just imagine how much I am going to have to slow down on my eating and how much more I am going to have to chew...I think that I might have to add a couple snacks between meals now just to make sure that I am getting enough calories cuz right now I get real full real quick...Will just have to wait and see how it goes in the days ahead...Hoping for some real weight loss this time!!!!

Awesome Little - glad the fill is working for you! Wanted to stop by and wave hello to you and tell you that I miss chatting with you and caught up on your journal a bit....sounds like you are doing fantastic! Keep up the good work!

WOW Avilla go with it, you may have to go to semi mushies. I can do fluids in the morning and I will try a little something for luch and I may still be too tight then so I will eat something like oatmeal or trail mix. Then dinner I'll have some salad, jello, pudding or ground turkey. Drink lots of water and you will see that scale drop.
