Well it been two weeks since my last fill and have very little restriction. I guess I should call the doctors office and see if I can get another fill and not wait another two weeks. I can get at least 2 cups at a sitting. I'm not eating as much as I was before my band, but not anywhere close to 4 oz's the doctor talked about. I'm going to challenge myself to excersise this month. I will start slow and add some time to it each week. Dana wants me to do the walking program at zona rosa that is to start tonight. I don't think I can walk as far as the want you to. If it wasn't for this journal I might as well be invisable to the world out there. I'm trying to keep track of my food intake on fitday.com. Do pretty good most of the time, but somedays I just don't feel like doing it. I also don't do very well on those days. I still can't see myself as every being a normal size. I have been this size for so long, I hope and pray that it will come. My love affair with food is going to kill me if I don't get it under control. My blood pressure is better, can't say that much for my blood sugars. I the blood sugars are coming down slowly. I would love to get off the medications. Today will be a good day.

hi Carol just had to comment on your journal entry. One thing that you have to keep in mind is to be possitive, I know it's hard especially when we have been over weight and nothing has worked, sure we are going to be negative and have very little hope, I don't know how long you have been banded or how much you have lost but remember that it did'nt come over night and it is'nt going to leave that fast either. we have to be patient, this way of losing weight is slow which is a good thing. take one day at a time and keep the good attitude.... I'm going to do this!! Wishing you the best of luck in your weight loss journey.
