    255 from 274= 19lbs gone ?????? :eek: :eek:

    I was late as ususal they didnt want to let me in at first but I talked my way in. I needed to attend the class in order to get my 1st fill on Monday!

    I'm so excited about the fill! I have no restriction right now its been 5 weeks since I've been banned! I had lost 15 pounds as of the 22nd of March not sure what my weight is now. Kinda scared to find out, I've been eating like a nut.

    My water intake as increased and my bread intake has also.

    I know when I get my fill I will have restriction and I will lose weight!

    thanks for listening
