Coming up on eight weeks...

It's been a long journey to healing! My surgeon said it doesn't usually take this long. ***sigh*** In any case, I still have some pain, but I'm now feeling fairly good most days. :w00t: No real weight loss yet, but I am willing to wait for that until I get to my "sweet spot" in fills. I had my first fill, 1 cc in an 11 cc band, and that made very little difference. In six weeks I get my next fill. At this point, I have little food restriction, but I do have some, which is fine. I am losing some weight, but very slowly. Tracking my food intake, I am at 1000 calories a day and about 50-60 grams of protein (the best I can seem to manage, though my nutritionist wants me to get 70!)
