Today is not good! For some reason I was starving this evening ! My hunger is staying away for at least 3 hours but everything is going down! I can't wait for this fill. Think I waited too long to eat. I gotta go work out tonight !

I'm in Houston. SW. Banded 7-31

Hey ladies I hope all is well. I'm doing well not much weight loss but I know i'm losing inches especially in stomach (not complaining about that at all) :D . On 7/23 I got a fill(#3) which brought me up to 6.8cc and i'm finally starting to feel the restriction. I've gotten stuck A LOT at-least once a day but that's just a reminder to me to take smaller bites, slow down and chew. I'm going back on the 6th i'm going to ask for .2cc and I think I should be good for a while with that. Workouts have been good 1-2hrs session but I only go on Saturdays and Sundays the workout is murder on my hair. I'm getting braids next week so I don't have an excuse anymore ;). Also after this last fill I noticed that i'm really tight when my cycle starts so going forward I will do liquids and really soft foods during the 1st couple of days. And it looks like i'm tight in the AM also I get hungry around 10-10:30. I'm excited b/c I think I might be departing the band-er hell phase...lol I'm praying that the pounds start falling out. And i'm praying for all of you stay encouraged and focus. ~Cia~

My stuff always go down easy. You ever thought you might just be eating right? I have yet to get stuck and that's what they don't want. Didn't you have a fill last week?

Good to hear from you. That's me I get hungry about that same time. The other day I ate at 9am and didn't get hungry again until 2pm. Glad to see your doing well.

Yea u are right! I guess I have read south stuff on here that I am expecting the worst. This weekend I'm cooking my meals for the beginning g of the week. I was too tired to work out tonight . My only hurdle is getting this Water in.

Lol I never been stuck. I told that to the PA she said well your doing things right. I worked out last night and did some upper body workout. My arms were burning. I'm going to move up to 7 days a week. That 30 minutes 5 times a week the PA said was the bare minimum. So I'm going to kick it up she said I would see more weight loss.

I'm doing good! Waiting on this next adjustment . Haven't been that hungry but I have to get this Water down .

I had my surgery on Monday (aug 5). Doing well now. First night I had a case of dry heaves (nothing in the stomach to come up). It scared the crap out of my husband who immediately wanted to call the paramedics. Other than this horrible pain in my shoulder, I feel fine now. Just trying to get the water in, but I just don't have any desire to eat or drink right now.

Congrats! Way to go...take it one day at a time

Well, it's been one week since surgery. Feel fine, no pain or soreness. A little hunger but not too bad or unbearable. Liquids going down really easy. No feeling of "being stuck". I think getting enough water in every day will be my downfall, but I'm sure it will become habit soon and become second nature.

Thanks for the support!!
