Today I had my 2nd doctor's appointment post op. I have over come one fear. That fear was getting a fill. Well, it was nothing to it. I did it like a champ. I got 2cc put in. The downside was I gained 3 pounds from the previous visit two weeks ago. I haven't been in the gym, but I will be tomorrow. Overall I still feel good about my decision, and have no regrets. Pushing on to reach my goals.

Hello Everyone,
I am fairly new to blogging! Just wanted to share a little bit. I had my LapBand surgery on Aug 23, 2011. Pre Op I was 324 pounds. I was on the protein diet for 4 weeks prior to surgery. I lost 10 pounds then. After surgery, the pounds dropped off down to 308 at my 1st 2 week doctor's appointent. I have been at 308 pounds every since. So, I went from a fast weight drop to no weight drop. Is this normal? I got to the doctor on Monday, September 19, 2011. Don't know if I will get a fill or not. Did not get one on my first visit.
I feel great. No post op problems. I have one concern though. I hear people saying they have restriction. I don't. I think I don't. I do take my time eating. My nickname should be chew chew. LOL I sometimes wonder if my band is in. However, I got my first restriction feel the other day. I was at work and rushing while eating pudding. OMG it did not go down. My mouth starting watering as if.... (you know). It only lasted for a few minutes. I had to bend over, and then it seemed like it slid on through. So, I guess that's the way restriction feels. It wouldn't move.
This forum really helps me to understand things. I enjoy conversing with people in the chat room and learning and sharing. You guys are great!!!
