Fill today!! 7.2/10cc band

Wow so I had a pretty big fill today! I think it was my 5th fill?? I had a big fill in April and was restricted for the last 2 months but didn't seem to lose ANY WEIGHT?!!!!!!!!! I am so frustrated with the band! I know I know to keep going and try and just take one day at a time. I do try, I do start over every day if I mess up sometimes I think I am just addicted to food. I am addicted to the quantity, the taste, the game of I am not supposed to have this and all in all I get bored really easily with food!

I decided to go to the doctor and since my intake increased they decided to push my band to see what I can handle. I was at 6.6 and I was feeling pretty restricted with that amount but now it will be interesting to see how I feel with 7.2.

I had a cup of tomato basil Soup with 4 crackers and a sugar free Jello. I told my husband that I still felt hungry but it was more head hunger than anything.

Hope every one is doing well! I know I haven't posted in awhile but just thought I would come back to it.

Thanks!:lol::lol:

I go on Wednesday and haven't lost more than a pound since my last doctor visit. I didn't get filled that time. I am at 6.1 cc's in a 10cc band. I want some more because I am at that tight in the morning can eat the cow in the evening place.:lol:

I know what you mean!! I can barely eat a cup in the morning but at night I can shovel in about 2 cups of food! Your doing really good though!! Keep it up! Do you have a problem with sweets at all?

Oddly enough, no. I was never a big candy eater, so don't really miss it. For example, I have a box of Whoppers in the fridge I bought in a moment of weakness and have eaten maybe 20 in the past 3 weeks.

My problem was ice cream. Now its not in the house. Otherwise that would be all I would be eating.

My crave now is watermelon. I ate a whole seedless one over 3 days. Not sure if that might be reason my weight loss slowed; you know, sugar content in the fruit...

Anyway, go for a fill in about 7 hours now, so its time to get to bed.:thumbup::thumbup:

Ok, did lose that 1 pound this month, bringing my total to 53. I am ok with that. The watermelon is fine, but its not Protein, is what I was told. I understand that too.

I got an additional .50cc's bringing my total to 6.6cc's in a 10cc band.

I feel it tight after this fill, liquid is going down slow, and I am back to the sipping I did right after surgery.
