What a GREAT DAY!!! I am at my half way mark!!! :thumbdown:

I have 40 more pounds to go!!! I started this journey on 7/11/06, lost my way till April of this year. (thought I could do it myself )

I started at 225, at surgery I was 208 (only due to that darn 2 week liquid diet-oh that was hard). When I came to my senses in April this year I was at 205.

I've lost 20 pounds in 5 months, that's an average of 4 pounds a month! :tongue_smilie:YA ME!!!

I also want to thank all of you for being here and logging in, blogging and for the chat line. LB has been a life saver!

I'm so happy to have gotten this GREAT TOOL!

I felt like that after my fill a month ago. drink alot of protein shakes if you don't want the fill taken out, but if you are unable to drink anything and keep it down then you need an unfill. I have since loosened up naturally and I really don't like it, I like being tight. It may go back to being tight after this week, because sometimes it's just a hormone thing.

my bands too tight at the moment its never been like this before:glare:

i don't like to be that tight, in fact when i have been - it halted my weightloss....a small unfill sometimes is the best route to go, so your able to eat.??.
