Wow, everyone seems to be doing well!! Congrats to all!!! I'm bouncing up and down with the same couple of pounds this week. Can't wait for the next fill!

Well today I got my first fill. I have been banded almost 3 months with no fill. I wasnt actually planning on him letting me get a fill today I was just gonna ask about it. But he said since I've gone longer than most without any fill at all he would do it. So I was a little nervous but it was a breeze no pain at all the only word I could think of to describe it was "weird". It just felt weird to me I could feel my band getting tighter. I have an 11cc band and he put in 3cc's to start. Well I'm back to liquids for a couple days but I'm so happy that I should start losing again. I had a protein shake and it took longer to drink than its been taking so I'm taking that as a sign that I'm tighter.:clap2: We'll see.

Go girl. Say goodbye to the 300s!

Congrads Robin! I just had my 2nd fill and had two days of liquids (my own decision) because I have been between 301 and 303 for a month. I wanted to give myself a kick and hope that I become a Twoterville. Well, I did it. I am now 298!!! I'm staying on mushies for a couple of more days so I can get further away from 300. I never want to see that number again.

I don't know if I have restriction yet but it does feel different when I swallow. So I hope I do.

I'm so happy to hear about the victories from you guys. So far fill #2 has been fine for me. No issues today and eating pretty small portions.

Pebbles, you are so beautiful! Your skin is amazing!

ladydi and rlittman -- way to go sisters!!

Thanks Pelo

Am I crazy or are we missing posts from 11/1 and 11/2? I could swear there were some posts about eating Halloween candy, and I think I posted about vomiting everyday. Did anyone else notice this or is my brain starved.

Something odd happened. I couldn't get on for two days, and then, as you said, it seems some posts are missing. Weird.

Speaking of the thread....it's November! Shall we start a new thread? I'll do it...okay so everyone go to the ABC November Chat thread....NOW!!!! LOL!:D
