10 weeks and counting!

:phanvan I had 1 fill at 5 weeks post-op and I go back to the Dr. on June 13th. I think I've lost about 24 pounds but my scale is friendlier than the Dr. I have noticed the last couple of weeks that I have felt hungrier and I haven't noticed restriction as much. Then all of a sudden I trouble getting anything down. I noticed I'm not eating as slow as I did at first and I'm not chewing as long, laying down my fork etc. It makes me so mad when I finally remember everything I'm doing wrong. I've been being too adventurous with what I am eating too. Well, I haven't gained any weight back but it sure is slow to come off. Go turtles! I really "enjoy" having my band. I know that sounds odd. It is like a security blanket.
