3/30/2008Hello everyone~Sorry it has been so long since my last post. I have been very busy LOOSING WEIGHT!!!!! I got another fill on March 12. I guess I had 4 mL after the first fill. Dr. Fox said I have 5 mL now. This one has been great. The first fill was good for about 2 weeks, then I noticed I was not as restricted as I had been. This second fill, though, is way different. I felt very tight and was a little anxious about leaving the office with that much restriction, but because of what happened after the first fill I decided to give it a shot. Boy am I glad I did! Now, almost three weeks later, I am still getting pretty good restriction. I don't usually eat food during the day because I can't get much in when my band is tight, and it is definitely tightest in the morning. by evening I can get about a cup of food, if it is REAL food (soup still goes right on through!), down. I eat slowly and chew very well, and I am paying attention to that "full" signal. I have only PBd (threw up, productive burping) once or twice since the first fill. I don't like it so I try not to go there. :)Anyway, I am now at 233 pounds, which brings total weight loss so far to 43 pounds. I am actually starting to look at bathing suits for the summer. Maybe...
