FAT2FLAT43

I thought I was the only one feeling like that. I initially wanted to lose the weight slowly, but not this slow in fear of having to deal with the excess skin. I lost more weight before the lapband than after. I lost 17 before and 1 lb after 3 weeks. I was devastated. I got my first fill and lost 5 lbs in 3 wks. I read other entries and got more frustrated when they lose 15-20 lbs in a month. I almost feel like I am depriving myself of the foods I like only to be disappointed by the small amount of weight I lose. I am not giving up just a little impatient. When I said slow I meant lose at least 8-10 a month not 1 and 5 lbs a month. I had my second fill and I really don't have any restrictions. I can eat the same amount of food with no problem. I have to stop eating myself because my body isn't telling me otherwise. Oh yeah to add insult to injury I was exercising too, go figure.

I had no problem either, although I think I wasn't filled enough. I still am hungry and can consume full portions. I never really feel full after eating. I just am so afraid to throw up I stop. My next fill is Tuesday and I am going to tell him to "fill er up" I have been eating as I should watching the carbs but I guess the amounts of food is taking precedence since I haven't lost any wait after 3 weeks. I get frustrated and a little depressed. Hopefully the next fill will do the trick.
