Hello all, I have been reading some of your post and trying to keep up. I hope everyone is doing great. The journey has been great so far, somedays better

than others. I had my surgery on September 29th and I would like to report that I am down 58 pounds as of today. I also recieved my first fill and

 

I was a little nervous because I did not know what to expect. It was not bad at all. I have a total of 5cc's in my band and I will be on liquids until tuesday.

 

Please keep pushing and never give up. Something that I have realize is that you may not see the weight right away but one day you will see it just fall off and you will be happy. Let me know how you are doing and I look forward to hearing from you all. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Thanks all, @ Pooh plus size, I just did what the doctor told me to do and I only eat 40z exactly a meal. I have not really worked out because of my leg but I just stop when I finish my portions. Cheetah that is still good weight because think about it, you probably would have gained that plus more so keep you head up. All I can say is eat the right foods and walk as much as you can. If I find anything else that would help I will post it.

    Yes, I don't know..my body has always been like that. You take food away and it shrinks fast. You give me food and boy do I gain super fast. I eat all my meals so I don't really know how to explain the rest.
