My band is working

I had my third fill May 6th and I had immediate results with restriction. Yeah! I feel so in control of my eating. I have 6.5 cc in a 10 cc midband. I also had dental surgery which has limited my chewing. I am paying close attention to my drinking and it makes a big difference. I try not to drink for about an hour before and an hour after. I could probably do better than that but it is hard to get my liquids in. I have lost 25 pounds so far but I feel so much more comfortable at 213 than at 238 lbs. I am surprised when I see pictures of myself that I am still so overweight. I could lose another 70 or more pounds easily. I haven't been that small for so long it does seem like a dream. My next fill (#4) is in 3 weeks. I want to lose maybe 5 to 7 lbs by then for my daughter's graduation.
