That's how I had my last unfill ! That's a great way to do it. No Guessing, just going with what works.

Yeah, I like this method. I had never heard of it before he did it. It was kind of weird standing up with the needle sticking out of stomach and sipping on Water, but the whole thing really does make a lot of sense. My PA will allow me to get a fill like this every four weeks until I find some degree of long term restriction. This means that I can get to my third fill (seems to be a magic number for a lot of people) in only 8 weeks.

I get to eat Mushies today after two days of liquid post-fill diet. I'm excited to see what kind of restriction I'll have.

I was at a standstill to for the last couple weeks and all of a sudden... just from this past saturday til today I have dropped almost 4#s... So excited & i go for a fiil tomorrow... I cant's wait cuz my appetite is in full force. Good luck... I believe we all go through the standstill stage in the beginning. The weight will catch up with the weeks.

Thanks for sharing you're experience. I hope that I catch up too. I see all you with 20 something lbs since surgery day and im only about 8. My toal loss is including preop. I mean its not bad but I was hoping id be consistent. Im never giving up and I'm starting to enjoy walking. Im also doing real well with eating and staying in good calorie range. Excited to eventually see the pounds start coming off.

I keep flirting with onederland. It's frustrating but I keep on trying. I'm using myfitnesspal to log my food and that is helping me see what I'm doing wrong. I'm hoping that tomorrow I will still be under 200 lbs. Keep your fingers crossed!

Hey all first fill went well. I had it done on the 14th on November and I still feel restriction. My next fill is December 20th... right before Christmas so that will be nice!!! I've been walking a lot and that is giving good results but I haven't started exercising regularly so that is my next mini goal =) Hope everyone is having a good week and has a good Thanksgiving!!!!!!

I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! I did until I got stuck last night. I overdid it and ate too fast. It was not a pleasant feeling. Live and learn.

Hello October Bansters!!! How did everyone do on Turkey Day??? What did you have??? Are you satisfied with your day and choices???

I can admit I wasn't perfect but I dont think I was horrible either. It makes 6wks post-op for me today & yesterday on Turkey Day I had1/2 cup of dressing, 1/2 cup of mac&cheese, 1/2 cup green Beans, and a small piece of bbq rib. I also had a small piece of pound cake & carmel cake. But this was for the entire day. So I think for a person with no real restriction & only 6weeks in, I did hella good!!! I didn't touch the ham, greens, potato salad, cole slaw, turkey, soda, egg pie, or sweet potato pie... Last year I woulda easily put away 3 plates full of food & a whole sweet potatoes pie, along with a 6pk of pop. So I'm very happy with the choices I made this Holiday. thumbs_up.gif

For dinner I had 4oz. Turkey, 1/4 cup Mashed Potatoes, 1/4 cup of Gravy, and 1/2 cup of stuffing.

I did good for someone that needs a fill....

Later on I got into my Husbands chips (I'm Bad !) I never eat them , but yesterday I figured some would not hurt.

So I busted my Butt in the Gym, and Pool today.

      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.
