Hi!!!

I am so happy... I can eat solids again!!! I am really nervous too but I just keep thinking that I am getting closer to my first fill and then I can really start focusing on my weight loss.. My fill will be on 4/29 and I am thrilled...

I was also worried that I had gained some pounds on the mushies (I avoided the scale for 2 weeks) but I actually lost 3 lbs... good for me...haha

So I am just writing to share with you my happiness... and my 22lbs total weight loss!

congrats! that is fantastic, I was banded on 01/07/08 and I have yet to lose 22lbs. keep up the good work!

Congrats on the weight loss. I was banded 3/5 and too have lost 22 lbs. Unfortunately, I went today for my first fill and because I'm averaging almost 3 lbs a week loss he wouldn't give me a fill. I was looking forward to staying full a little longer. Oh well, my time will come I suppose.

ooooh, you are just like me...I started solids last Thurs and I just KNEW I gained.....I checked yesterday and lost 2 pounds!!! Yay me!!!!

Yeah, Its good to hear we are all loosing... they told me at my docs appointment not to compare myself with others, and I am not. The support and encouragment I get from all of you is invaluable! Thanks and keep up the good work... I have to force myself to increase my excercise... taht is harder than dealing with the food...
