Paid off my Band

Paid off my Band. It took me over 16 months @ 5.9 %, but it's finally paid off. :banana :banana :banana

So to Celebrate I've decided to get topped off a bit. I've been able to eat way too much. My last fill was November 11th under flouro, even though the doc said it was a textbook fill it never felt as tight as I did last year at this time.

When I was newly banded and adjusted just right I had trained myself not to eat certain things such as breads and Pasta cause I knew they would come back up on me or give me a hard time going down (get stuck). I watched everything I ate! I need to get back on track, use FitDay and exercise.

I lost that restricted feeling......bring back that.....feeling.

Good luck to those trying to get the band. I paid out of pocket, borrowed on credit, and flew to Mexico by myself.

The band is the best thing I ever did for myself...and my family!

Gee Shelly, I feel just like your signature comments…I eat 2 cups of food and still feel hungry! Major discipline in paying bills, not eating. You’re total Inspiration, you've come so far!

Carol I’ll be at Doc McK next wends at noon to get a fill, it’s a quick trip into town, I’ve been so busy, otherwise I’d do lunch. The doc’s been doing quite a few bandsters lately.

Lisa, I adore you too. Is that incision closed yet?

Darcy watch out for the falling ice!

Soon it will be worth every penny, when I get to goal…. Thanks for all the well wishes and congrats.
