  1. Stuck At The Same Wt

    My starting wt was 250 lbs on 10-10-11 at which time I stated my pre surgery liquid diet. On the date of my surgery 10-25-11 I weighed 243 lost 7 lbs. At first the weight came off fast. But now I seem to get stuck at the same weight for awhile. Finally this morning I lost another lb. I was 225 for almost 2 weeks and stated to get frustrated but this morning I was 224lbs. I have lost a total of 26lbs. I have not had a band fill yet and am scheduled for that on 12-8-11. Hopefully at that time I'll start to see a little faster wt loss. Does this happen to anyone else?

  2. 1st Band Fill Today

    Well today was my first band fill 6 weeks post op. I did not hurt but felt really weird. The Dr. had a hard time finding my port. He said it happens. He put in 2 cc's so now I have a total of 4cc. I defiantly eat half of what I was able to eat yesterday. Wow it was like 5 bites and that was it. But it will be a good thing since I have been at 224 forever. Well we shall see what the scale says tomorrow.
  3. So I get my first band fill on Thursday and I'm a little nervous but mostly excited. Just a little nervous of the unknown I guess not really the needles. I'm a pediatric nurse so I guess I have that to thank. Anyway still stuck at 26lbs hope this will help boost the wt loss again.
