thanksgiving arrives the day i was dreading, I enjoyed myself i dranked alot of wine, eat a slice or 2 of pie through out the day. and ate some of everything that was cooked but in moderation. enjoyed my family but now im back to reality to exercise and restriction. speaking of restriction i had my fillon nov, 18 and I feel no restriction i called my doctor and he told me to come in dec, 6 for more cc's lord knows i need it. hurry dec 6:blink:

today I got my first fill, i think i was more worried on how the fill will go than me actually getting the procedure. them laying me down on that moving table was making me nausious, but after getting the fill i found my self to be light headed and wanting to vomit. hopefully my fill is sufficient he gave me 4cc's. and now im on my liquid diet for 24 hours cant wait till this nausea feeling goes away.:smile:

wow tamara congrats, tks for ur comment

i share ur pain i too have little restriction, and have lost 20 pounds since banded 1 and a half month a go. its really hard to stay healthy full time and all the time but, it is a work in progress. goood luck.

:redface::sad::w00t::sad::mad2:

tks for the input only exercising 2x a week maybe its not enough

hi I say don't deprive yourself, I to will have my fill b4 thanksgiving. and my nutionist told me to enjoy myself BUT< make sure you eat protein first that should fiil you up where you cant fit much else in. hope this helps

my first fill is thursday nov 18th, I'm so nervous. I read about what other people have experienced and there is nothing like going through the process your self. this week I didnt lose any weight:sad:. So I am so ready for this fill because I think my body is intaking more food than when I first got out the hospital. I m ready to get back on my losing wagon. Hey, have anyone experiened something different because my sister had the realize band and I had the lapband. I heard they are the same but different companies, does one make you lose weight faster?:bored: just curious on anyone experience or expertise on both.

lol @latin starr i;m following u as well celebrate ur 13 pounds. @papoose my dr did point out that there is a difference in the scales from office to home but I hate just hate it too. i need every pound to count lol. tks for the reply. @ janetjourneytolism u make a lot of sense lol they are expensive. and it does depend on the time of day. i think the morning i'm the most heaviest.

I went to the doctor like i said on monday 11/08/2010 and jumped on his scale WHHYYY:cursing: did his scale say i only lost 5 pounds. but my personal scale says i lost an xtra 10 pounds whick I knew was incorrect because my clothes should have fell off, lol well, i still celebrate the 5 pounds. But good news I go for my first fill nov 18th kind of nervous. But so ready because I feel I can eat more than what I should be. :smile2: well, hopefully my weigh loss will take off with this fill.:eek: until next time.

tks for the comments

:thumbup: so, today i feeling a little skepital. total weight loss if all goes well tomorrow will be 26 pounds within a month, so why aren't my clothes falling off me? yes, they are baggy and fit very losely. Do you think I'm expecting to much too fast. People say they notice my weight loss. I can see it on my back,you know with my rows, lol face, fingers, ankles, inches in my waistline and my breast is deflating do you think that will keep my clothes from falling off? I heard every 25 pounds u lose a dress size, I don't know how true it is, or who experienced different. If you experienced something different please share so I can have a little insight, because I know everyone body is different.:cursing:

@ latin starr 13 is better than no weight loss i will keep my fingers cross lol

im eating lots of watermelon not for dinner but for snacking and sometimes it will carry me through where im not hungry. and its filling

thanks bo=68 and i will share with u postponeband lol
