On 12/2/11 I went and got a 1/2 cc fill. I do not tolerate fills well so to only get a 1/2cc is normal for me. I did GREAT and I was sure to follow my dr.s instructions to a -T-!! Liquids only for 2 days and then on to soft foods and then to solids. I felt very good restriction up until Thursday...pms kicked in and I could not even keep my protein shakes down. This is the first I have encountered this because I have been on the depo shot for 12 months up until now. I went for a slight unfill today 1/2cc taken out and I feel like a million bucks. Ate a protein filled lunch worked out with the Jillian michales biggest loser DVD and getting ready to do some house cleaning!

6lb Gain!!!! Eeeekkkkk
· Beckh86 · 12/02/2011 22:20
The verdict is in.... Since my last dr visit I have GAINED 6lbs! I have not been making the right food choices and I knew there would be no loss for this visit. I did a lot of sitting around and feeling bad for myself up until wednesday.... Then I decided the only person I'm hurting by not doing the right thing is ME! I have been meticulously counting my calories and I took the plunge and purchased a 1YEAR gym membership.... I am looking forward to what's to come including the holidays, wedding planning and DRESS shopping!

Drinking My Coffee!
· Beckh86 · 12/01/2011 10:38
I woke up this morning feeling MUCH better about everything! I'm sipping my coffee and I can't wait to start at the gym and get my fill on Friday! It is time to get back on track. I have been setting my timer while at home so I make sure I am getting enough to drink and to be sure I am not drinking to soon after I eat. I also threw out all the bad things I add to my food such as blue cheese and ranch dressing and BBQ sauce as a fellow LBT member opened my eyes! thank you I know I can do it! I did not go through surgery and losing over 50lbs to go back to where I started! Good luck to everyone and thank you for your support and encouragement!

I had surgery in January 2011.... My starting weight was 278lbs and I am down to about 225.... I have been stuck here for MONTHS! I am so embarrassed and I feel terrible... I skipped my last fill because I was to embarrassed to go to the dr with no weight loss and possibly a weight gain of a few lbs. I am very emotional and short with the people I care about. I am currently on the depo shot and I am wondering if this is also hindering my weight loss. I have made the decision to discontinue the depo shot and I also made an appointment for a fill on Friday. I was just wondering if anyone else has delt with this or has any good advice? I am not good about following the rules and I recently started nursing school which I feel is hindering my weight loss even more due to poor meal planning.... I am just reaching out for any advice or words of wisdom anyone may have! Thanks
