I just went for my 3rd fill. I have been feeling crappy because I haven't lost anything in 10 days. When I went for my fill, the nurse weighed me and was thrilled, I have lost 35 lbs all together, 25 since being banded 10/20/09 (14 lbs since 2nd fill 1/4/10). She said I am doing well, (I thought I was sucking). I guess the inner perspective is different and my expectations are messed up.

I had good restriction after my 2nd fill but then last week when I wasn't losing I decided to start journaling and I found that I was getting too many calories and not enough Protein. :confused: So I scheduled a fill, when I got there I told her that I would just need a little, like .25 because I didn't want to be too tight, but when I got under the floro I needed .7 to get good restriction. I didn't realize how much it had loosened.

Now back to liquids and mushies and hopefully back to restriction. I do think I will keep journaling this time so I can better predict what is going on. :confused:

Funny how we are so hard on ourselves. I agree journaling really helps keep a perspective on things.
