I am a bit sad today. I actually gained three pounds, went to doctor for slight unfill and now have lost those three pounds but it's disappointing to be at the same weight as five weeks ago. I need this to work.

BG - that tummy picture is scary

Way to go! That is a big one.

Thanks for your blog. What's the difference between a PB and actually throwing up? I apologize in advance for the grossness of the question. Sometimes I can tell I've eaten one bite too many and it comes up but that's it. Which is that? Will it hurt my band? I don't have it nearly as often as I am learning when to stop and to slow down but occasionally it happens.

178 yesterday and finally did my ticker thingie.

I tried to wear a skirt I bought six months ago and it fell to the floor. I felt like the star of one of those weight loss commercials. Lots more to go and it is going slowly but I feel more energetic every day. And I finally made my ticker!

Oh girl, that was so much fun to read. I have many similar childhood memories...injuries. Thanks for the laugh.

1980 First, you are not going to fail at this. You have already committed considerable resources and thought and you will succeed. Second, know that you are not alone. I have been hovering at 191-193 for three weeks. I had my second fill on Tuesday and think it will help. We have to hang in there and trust the band and our bodies. And 1980, ten pounds in a month is great. Just think if you lost one pound a week what you will look like in a years time. I have sixty pounds to lose to hit my goal. Slow and steady wins the race. (I know, I know...I want it to be faster too!) Most of all..DON'T WORRY...We CAN DO THIS!
