The Fill Kicked in...

Recommended Posts

I had my fill a couple of weeks ago and I thought I felt it. Dr. Rodriguez said I was swollen so he put in 2cc instead of the 4 he planned. Boy am I glad that he did.

Today I was out to lunch with my co workers at Wendy's and I ordered the kid's meal. cheese burger and manderine oranges (I love that they do that now instead of fries you have a choice) and I have forced myself to eat slowly (finally) but I could not get it down.

Two bites and I was through. I waited and waited and I knew if I took another bite up it would come.

But I wasn't hungry anyway so I stopped. Later in the day I went out to eat with my husband and I was still full. I left most of my dinner (he ate it for me) but then after working out I went to Cosco because I had this overwhelming thirst.

I bought 2 flats of propel and could hardly wait until bought them and then downed one right in the store. Thank goodness I had on my workout gear... so people could tell why I was thirsty but I think I looked a little nuts anyways.:) By the time I drove home I had drank at least three bottles. ( I know I will be up all night tonight peeing) Not hungry but thirsty... Has anyone experienced this? Maybe it's the heat...It was a scorcher here in the Inland empire today.

Thanks Marie! ((hugs))

Bettie the knee is feeling better but I am annoyed with Kasier. I have asked for an apt. it seems like ages ago and I think because my knee guru left:( no one seems to have time. I have been taking the Glucosimine and Calcium, and now the swelling is managable. So I am not complaning:cool:

Really paula? I am glad to see that I am not alone. It is soooooo hard not to drink and eat together or to wait the appropriate amount. I was in my classroom and I had eaten somthing small like a muffin and later I drank not even a good gulp of my Water and pb all over the floor. My students thought it was hilarious because by coencidence I had just read the story earlier that week of My Little sister ate one Hare. A story about throwing up heathy things!:)

Oh, Rica, why didn't I ever have neat teachers like you? LOL I love your story and then your acting it out! Now that's dedication!

But on the subject of thirst, I'm always thirsty. I usually carry a bottle of Water in my purse every where I go. If I forget it, it's like I left part of me at home. It's become a fixed appendage. I try to "never leave home without it".:)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
