    my journey
  2. Hey Jilly...Im now down 36 pounds..and im frustrated as well...It is sooooo hard...I havent had a fill yet and that is due to my weight loss..my doc feels i dont need one..but right now...i can eat everything as well...Its funny..we are going through the same thing...i can get down 75% of what i use to be able to get down...and my family is curious as to why as well...i get 2ccs put into my band on monday...hopefully that helps...im trying to just practice self control...its hard though...keep your head up...you'll make more progress..im sure of it...keep me posted as well!

  3. awww guys...you made me feel so much better..because i was feeling like crap!!! Im so paranoid now! Im like...is my band where it is suppose to be???? but i have no acid reflux, everything goes down smooth...so im hoping everything is alright??? I see him on thursday...im a little scared im going to get a scolding again..lol...thanks for the support guys and goodluck to you all!
  4. So I got banded on March 30th...I was 321 when I started the process. I lost 7 pounds before the surgery. On my surgery day i was 314. I lost a whooping 16 pounds in two weeks bringing me to 298..:laugh:.I was so excited...and so was my surgeon...my next follow up was may 6. i was suppose to stay on purees during that month...needless to say...i cheated and i cheated bad...not in what i ate..but the fact that i began to have solids once a day after only 2 weeks of being on purees. When i went to the doctor a month later...i was only 4 pounds lighter...bringing me to 294..my surgeon was Furious!!! I told him what i did and he went into a fit...he said i could have flipped my band...i could have hurt myself and that he was disappointed :confused:...im thinking to myself...damn...but i lost a total of 20 :thumbup:pounds since my surgery...he was not satisfied...i was depressed..:rolleyes2: i know i could have done better but i was proud of myself...i couldnt lose 22 pounds in years...and I lost it in a month...so my next appointment is may 27th..im now down to 288...i have lost 6 pounds in two weeks. I hope I can be at 10 pounds lost by the time i see him again. so what have i been doing...well i count calories(800-950 a day)...i walk two miles 3-4 times a week, and i try not to overeat...i have no restriction right now so it is very hard!!!! I can eat everything and anything...so im looking forward to my first fill.
  5. Hey Jilly...it is amazing that we are feeling the same way...its nice to see how someone that got banded around the same time you did is doing...im at total of 33 pounds lost...i lost 7 of those pounds before the band...so i have lost 26 pounds after...I hope all is well with you...i read your last blog and i did the same thing...my surgeon was furious and told me i shouldnt had graduated to solids so early...i get my first fill in the beginning of june...how are you feeling..keep me posted..ttys

I return back to work on Monday...my students will really keep me busy and my mind off food...ttys...kit

    Sometimes i wonder... (excuse the jumble - posting via crackberry)

    fit in a seat...or when you sweat so much that people are looking at you crazy...or when you feel like you are about to break your heels for standing on them too long...or you cant fit into those bbq party backyard plastic chairs...all do to your weight...you start to come to the harsh reality that you need to lose weight...i cant wait to feel good in all facets of my life... physically, emotionally, and health wise...good luck on your journey!

    i just got banded...i and before i did...i was always admired for the way I put myself together...i always looked smaller than i really was...i was admired by the fellas, and have lots of friends..and i let my exterior make me feel like i had nothing to change....but when you get on a plane and dont

    So.....

    im in your same boat...hungry...the difference is is that I have cheated...yes shame on me...i popped a couple of cheese its...chewed them up real good..and swallowed...lol...it went down...so for the paste 4 days...ill take a bite here...and a bite there...and it goes down...I know for a fact that there is not enough restriction in my band....but they said that is normal and after my first fill hunger wont be an issue....im tempted to have a small meal....but i dont want to go too far....i notice that if i take a bite off of my mom's plate...it satisfies my craving...other from that...i have been on soup...farnina....baby food....and protein shakes...my family claims they see me getting smaller...however i dont see it...i ordered a scale...so that i can keep on top of my progress...my doc also said...2 weeks of liquids...and i tomorrow makes a week...and i see him on thursday...
