I was exactly here just 2 weeks ago... working out all the time and eating less ( though it seemed like it was just about what i was eating before) and then i finally hit a good spot. 8.5 cc's and i am a loosing machine all of a sudden... nothing all month and then 7 lbs in the past 2 weeks.. that was what i lost as a total for the last three months! loving the fill.. i didn't think i'd make it here but now that i am i am thrilled. it will happen. i didn't believe it but i do now.

I'm so glad you had the guts to say this. I am at the same point as you and I go to support groups and others at the same point (6 month out) have lost twice my 30 pounds and it is frustrating. I know I am cheating (I have issues with chocolate withdrawl, Ha!) and haven't kept up with the exercise like I should, so I will keep trying to plug along. I figure its better than gaining 30 pounds in 6 months! Keep up the struggle, I'm there with you. Steady but sure.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
