OK folks, I have 18lbs to "Twoterville" I just got a second fill bringing me up to 6.5cc's in my 10cc band. I seem to be holding the restriction, last time the swelling went down 2 days later and this is day 4 today (crossing my fingers and toes) Yesterday was my first day of full on solid food after the fill and if this level of restriction stays I will be very happy. My goal is to get to twoterville in the next 4 weeks, making a total loss of 50lbs !!! Just putting my goal out here so I can't fudge on it later, I am committed to it.

PS I know that is a lot to lose in 4 weeks, but I like to dream big and think positive. Besides if you shoot for the stars you know you will at least hit the moon

That's awesome and you can do it! I look forward to joining you in twoterville someday!

Oooo - I am trying for Twoterville, too!! We'll urge each other on.

That third fill may just be the charm... I also have 6.5 cc now, but in a VG band. I think they hold up to 11cc's - but I don't know for sure.

Anyway - Good luck to all of us on the way to Twoterville!!

:]

I just hit twoterville on Wednesday. It was a struggle and I made a mini goal of going to 275. I had my third fill on June 20. I learned I have a VG band that holds 11 cc. 1st fill was 3.8, 2nd was 1.2, and the 3rd was 2.0 so I think thats a total of 7.0. I feel more restriction than before. Keep working at it you will join us. I am making a concerted effort to stay there and make it to onederland.

Granlady.....when you figure it out, you let me know! I have posted help on it with no luck.

Your doing GREAT!

We're in the race together because I am exactly where you are. I really, really would love to be back in twoterville before my next appointment in the middle of July. Think we can do it?? You're right tho...that would be a pretty impressive loss for a month and I don't want to get disappointed if I can't make it. That would be awesome to hit that goal. I think about it all the time because it's my first "mini goal" and I really want to get there! GOOD LUCK!!!

I'll keep sending positive vibes your way...please do the same for me!!!

Well the restriction is easing up a bit but definitely getting close, sounds like we all have the VG 10 or 11 cc's I don't remember. There is only one of them though so we have the same one. I think I need another fill to get good restriction, but at least I have restriction!!! I hear avg on the VG is 6.5 to 7cc's for good restriction in the beginning, of course not everyone is average :eek: Not getting on the scale yet, waiting a few days. Upped my water intake too :fish: For all you bandsters that want to let's start a Road to twoterville thread for us :tsk: I will start it.
