Happy New Year

Quiet here, had a pre new year party with a few friends, so went to bed early last night.

it is strange to hear fill of 5.5 or 6. I only have a 4cc band and have 1.5 in me

Trying to start the new year off right, positive and happy.

Have a great day all

Well Val, although I am sorry this is happening to you too, I am glad that I am not the only one. They act like I am an anomoly up there. Barb is going to think I am nuts last week I call and tell her I need a fill and freaking out cause I can eat anything, and now I cant get liquids down..tomorrow I might eat a sub! WTF........:smile2:

Vicki,

Im due sometime at the end end July.

Yes they dont unfill it totally they go by how you feel. Like I said she took out two leaving me with 4cc and I can eat A LOT. Its kinda fun to eat a whole bagel and not get stuck and barf. I knew the bathroom at every restaurant because I had to use them during every meal out. I guess thats not so good but I didnt really realize that I was getting stuck with everything I thought it was just how it had to be. Im just trying to go slow with the weight gain this time around.

You know Rain, I am glad u said that cause I too know where the bathrooms are and I need to "relieve" myself, I don't throw up, just bend over and push it out sort of..:rolleyes2: anyway, I am glad I am not the only one cause I was wondering.. I can eat a lot too even with my fills, i must have a very elastic esophogus, cause it fits but uncomfortable at times. Keep us posted and post pix of your growing tummy..lol :)

      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
