Hello!!! I had my first fill today. I now have 4.8 cc in there and everything went smoothly. I didn't even need a band aid!

I have a problem with this heat. I hope you all are getting your fluids in and staying cool. I'm going to get something now.

How are you all doing???

KS_sxychoc was going to reply to your earlier response last week about getting your first fill on 8/12. Was hoping I would see you as I went for a fill at 11:15 AM. on Thursday also, but was too busy to respond to let you know. You definitely did well with the weight loss. Keep up the good work. :)

My fill I thought might be questionable because of the amount of weight I have lost "supposedly for my age" as no fill last month because of that issue and then lost another 2.5 lbs this month. But he did give me more, but wouldn't tell me how much. He just keeps referring that I'm not 18 anymore. I finally came back with "I'm not"!.:)

You lucky girl, no band aid. Whether I bleed or not one gets slapped over where he inserted the needle. I think next month I am going to ask, if he puts one on, "is this to stop the saline from coming out". I love to joke with him.:lol:

Hope you are staying hydrated if you are with the football team, I pretty much stay indoors in air conditioning as work 10 hour days and usually as it gets warmer I get colder and have to put a jacket on.

Know you are busy, so keep up the good work with your weight loss. Stay in touch.

Both of you keep up the good work. Always good to have the "first fill" over with. Then we know it is nothing to fear.

Stay cool, my friends.

I am tired of this heat!!!! I am ready to get my first fill 8/25. I have not stepped on the scale in a week or so but the weight loss from right after surgery has definately slowed down and maybe even stopped. I can tell that the amount I eat has dramatically reduced but I still get hungry between meals hopefully after fills that will stop.

I have been to the gym one time for a real workout since surgery and it went pretty well it will be easier to go to the gym more frequently once the kids are back in school.

I am proud to say that I have not had a Diet coke since July 12th and I was SO addicted to it and drank way more than I should have so that alone is a victory for me on the road to a healthy lifestyle.

I just wanted to check in these boards have been pretty quiet lately must be the heat!!

Hey...it was great to meet you at the meeting.

How are things going?

I may have to return to meetings to meet all of you.

After attending a few, I decided to miss them. Too many complainers who were not working the tool and expecting wl.

I need positive direction to reach success.

It was not exactly what I was expecting but I am going to try to make as many as I can soccer season for the kids is getting ready to start up and that is a very hectic time of year around our house but I desperately need support. I completely agree with you and I need the positive advice and support to get great results!!! I hope to meet you at an upcoming meeting :lol:

I don't have any restriction. So next week will be another fill for sure.

Since I ride The Jo bus to work each day, I've noticed that I have developed motion sickness. So even when I get home in the evening, i have to wait awhile before I can eat.

How are you doing with your progress?

I know what you mean. But since I had to go off of so many carbs two years ago, things aren't as hard for me.

So the chips and bread aren't an issue for me. I seek out suggestions for food ideas. Every now and then I get some helpful info.

When football season starts, I won't be able to go much until after Thanksgiving. So, I'll be on here looking for you all as I travel.

Since it was such a nice day, I hope you all went out and enjoyed it. Take care.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
