Now I really know that part of my slow weight loss is because I had not had a fill from August -December. I could not get in for months and then when I did get my December appointment my surgeon went on about how I HAD to make sure I was here every 4-5 weeks for a fill. I explained that he was booked up since the October and I could not gt in until December... So, I don't have an appointment for another week but I'm calling in the am to make a 5 week appointment early so I don't have to wait 6-7 weeks or longer.

But...I'm estatic about my 11 pounds.....I'm back on track adn feeling great. I'm not going to be where I wanted to be next month but I'm hoping I will make my first goal by July.

I also ordered Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred from Overstock.com and they sent the wrong DVD...so I have to wait for a replacement.

Thank you all for listening,

Bren

That is awesome, congratulations!!

That's awesome. I'm finally giving in and getting a fill next week. I'm stubborn. I like to be able to eat meals without pbing but my loss has slowed down a lot so I need to do something. I have a fear of getting overfilled because so many people's complication stories begin with having been overfilled or getting stuck. So I tend to put off getting a fill because of that.

Whoo hoo!! That's great Bren.

Here's hoping I wil have the same experience as I too waited a LONG time for my fill (and paid the price!). Things have been tight (but not too tight) since my fill last Wed, so I am hopeful that the weight will once again start to come off.

I'm still tight alot and have alot of pb'ing...

Thank you all for your kind words.

Are you PB'ing because you are too tight? Or because you are eating too fast? Too tight isn't good!

I think it's a combination of eating too fast and some not chewing well. I have two toddlers and even though I'm better about slowing down when I eat and chewing alot, I tend to hurry a bit too much. I'm alot better and have made a point to slow down.

That's fantastic! Yay for you! I too have the problem with eating too fast and not chewing well enough. I know I need a fill but I can't even begin to face one with all the pain and grossness I have about once a week from my inability to eat the way I should. I seem to have a very long learning curve.
