February talk time.
I'm here! I'm here! My fill is doing great for me. I have lost five pounds so far. I was at 179 the day of my fill and now I am 174. I am eating like I should be. The other day the girls got happy meals from McD's and I snuck a french fry and it got stuck. I thought I was going to die!!! I didnt pb or anything but it was stuck and I swear I will not eat another one. I dont care how good they taste. That hurt!!! My middle girl opened up her chocolate milk and said here mommy this should wash it down. lol I took a sip and it did it took it away. For the past couple of days I am really watching how much protein and water I am taking in. I had gotten away from that. So I am back into it. I want to try and be in the 160's by the time I see Dianne again. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Angie

I get my fill tomorrow! WOOT!
Ah, That was EASY! It was fun too! I had two good lookin' men standin' by me... hehe. Dr. B. and his helper. They were fun too. The helper dude was like... You had to have lapband? I said I love you already! But it was very easy and I could feel the pressure from the needle and it was cool. And I got to watch. I didnt have to pay!!! But they did send me over to Patient services because they thought I had too but my insurance is so good I didnt have too. WOOT!!! I am on liquids. Drinking my boost as we speak and went to the grocery store and got all the other fun liquidy stuff. So I am set for my six days of no eating. I will do fine. Hopefully I can lose some weight now. It has been on a stand still and has been driving me insane!!! Thanks for checking up on me girls. Angie

How much liquid or Protein shake could you drink? DId you do the 1oz thing or were you able to drink a full Protein Shake? I am so hungry right now it is killing me. Nothing is satisfying me at all and it worries me. I dont think chicken salad is bad for mushie stage. I think I had it then as well? How much or if any have you lost since your fill? Angie

February talk time.
Just going to stay home and cook for the man. Aunt flo decided to come out and play on Vday and I am hating it. I bought some sexy dice for him and I to enjoy tonight and now I wont be able too. ( I know TMI, but what are friends for) I made 50 chocolate suckers yesterday for my girls classes at school and I was up until midnight finishing them up. I had fun though. I need to buy more molds so it will go faster. I am getting ready to make some Teddy bears for my youngest daughter so she can give them out to her little friends today. WOO HOO! I am sick of looking at chocolate right now. lol Ok I am out. If I dont I will write a book. TTYL!!! HAPPY V DAY! Angie
