Momto1plus1

I have 8cc in my 10 cc band. With my last fill I told her I thought that I was pretty close to the sweet spot. It's so odd. My scales aren't necessarily going down, but my clothes sizes are. What's even odder is that I'm really not exercising like I should. I won't complain though.

This is exactly how I felt after having mushroom/cheese eggs this morning. I had surgery Nov. 19, 2007 and have never had a problem with mushrooms before. Well, after my last fill (This was my 3rd fill, a month ago. I have 8 cc in a 10cc band.) I have gotten a whole lot more sensitive. I can tell you without a doubt that it will be a very long time before I eat mushrooms again. What foods have you become more sensitive to???

Name...................Start..........Current..........Goal ......To Go Momto1plus1.........228.8............227.6............218 .8.......8.8 Well I'm going down, but it's slow going. I think losing 8.8 pounds in the next week is problably impossible. LOL Oh, well onward and down.

Wow!!! You should be so proud of yourself. Look at the progress you have made on YOU in such a short time. :blushing:

Name...................Start..........Current..........Goal ......To Go Momto1plus1...............228.8..............228.4.................218.8.........9.6 Well I'm finally on the right track. I guess I had hit a plateau. I don't think that I will be able to meet my goal for this challenge, but that's okay. I'll make it for the next challenge.

I can't figure out what's going on. It just might be "That time of the month." All I can say is that this is not fun.

I went for my third fill today, so I didn't get to go to WW. I'm going to wait until Friday when I go to WW to post my weight. I was shocked to find out that I had 7.6 in a 10 band. She added .4 I told her I thought I was pretty close to the "sweetspot"

Way to go Kristin!!!!!! You should be so proud of yourself!!!!

You know years ago a lady at WW told me that she continued to go even though she never lost weight. She said she figured if she wasn't there she would be larger than she was. That really stuck with me. You may think you have only lost 15 pounds, but you could have been at plus 15 pounds. I do think that getting to the "sweet spot" is a big key. I go for my 3rd fill tomorrow. I feel I'm pretty close. Stick with what you are doing. It will pay off. I know it's discouraging when you see others having big losses. Your day will come. t

Oh gosh girl!!! Keep us updated. I had a partial hysterectomy in 99. It was the best thing I have ever done. It has caused me to start into menopause a little early though. I thought that I would have had about 10 plus years. Big Hugs!!!

Big Hugs girl!!! You know we are always so hard on ourselves. Why do we allow a number on a machine to control how we feel???? It's an ever going battle for me. I have a band that I purcased from the internet. It's says, "All is forgiven. Move On!!" I look at it everyday.

I was banded on Nov 19. I started with 4 cc in my 10 cc band. I've had 2 fills. I want to say that I'm just a little short of 7 cc. I have lost 40 lbs. I think I'm pretty close to restriction.

Kristin Sorry to hear that you are sick. I had bronchitis and am pretty sure that I had the flu too. I went to the doctor, but we kinda got side tracked and they didn't do the flu swab. All I can tell you is that I ran a fever for 6 days. Antibiotics for 10 days and I'm finally almost 2 weeks later the cough is going away. Don't push getting back to the gym too soon. I made that mistake one time. I regretted it. It wore me out.

Oh dear Lord I have. Definitely not a good thing. It's all a learning process.

Wow!!! Congratulations!!! I can't wait to be where you are at.

I have a 10 cc band and started out with 4cc's. You definitely need more of a fill. You need to call and get an appointment. I'm right at 7cc's(This was after 2 more fills) and I can tell you it makes a HUGE difference.

I have had two fills. My second one was last Wednesday. Talk about a change. My band had 4 cc's at the time of surgery. In January I got 1.?? and then 1.?? last week. I can tell I'm just about/ if not at the sweet spot.

Hi I'm Wendy. I was banded in November and have lost almost 35 pounds. I'm thrilled to death with that.

Oh gosh I'm so sorry to hear that you are in pain. I think that I would call the doctor's office back or head to the ER.
