Im from ireland, so not far away

Ive 4cc's in a 10cc band.
I think i'll be at green zone soon, i get satisfied from a small meal.
Now for me this takes awareness because realisticly i could sit and eat slowly for an hour.
So after 15/20mins i quit!
If i rush my food it will get stuck quite easily.
So never full, but satisfied, thats the goal right?
Problem is i dont stay satisfied for very long,
Doc thinks a small fill will give me this and help me not wanna snack between meals.

Yep went through this stage myself, im 10weeks out now and it hasnt bee plain sailing... Ive struggled to loose weight, felt like i couldnt do another diet, stressed out badly.
I dunno what but something clicked and i just realised to hang in there until i get my restriction and it will be easier then.
Its just not an option to fail, i have a wedding in august, my daughters communion next year and my own wedding in 2/3 yrs!
I will walk down that isle slim and healthy
My better attitude and relaxed approach has helped me loose 3lb this week!

Hey Lyd, i was banded 11/10
I lost 10lb from liquids post op but nothing since!
Its very very frustrating and last week i began to panic that this wasnt gonna work, all my family and friends known it didnt work.
Not gonna happen!
Ive come to far to take that as an option,
It'll take time, we'll get there.
Btw ive had 2fills so far, my doc does them every 4weeks.
Im at 4cc's, have slight restriction so im hoping i'll get to a sweet spot very soon.
For now i have to calorie count, as crappy as it is!
Im basically on another bloody diet!!

Great outcome, your on your way to the end result
