First Fill...Finally
Oct 22, 2009
So I had 3cc put in during surgery and yesterday thew added 2 more, that means I have 5cc in my band. I hate sounding negative but I honestly dont feel the difference...We will see how it goes from here.

+4 lbs
Oct 10, 2009
I only did my Pilate's 1 day so far, I def need more discipline which I'm working on. I have also not lost any weight, I actually gained 4 lbs within the last week or so. I think I need a fill now because I've been eating more and feeling hungry. I have not received any fills since my surgery, I had an appointment on the 13th but don't have the means to get there so I had to changed the date until the 20th (that sucks) but oh well. I'm trying not to stress it, I should be back on track once I get my first fill.

Hi

I had a rough few days, My oldest son father passed away last Saturday. I had to take my 11 year old to his dad's funeral and burial, it was so hard. Seeing your child hurting is the worst pain in the world.
I broke my eating habits while i was out of town for 2 days, I really had no money with me to buy what I should eat, so I ate what was available (in moderation of coarse) I really thought that when I came home I would be weighing like 2 pounds more but I was actually -3 lbs which felt great.
Idk if taking my son to the funeral was the best, he has the image of his dad stuck in his head now. He asked allot of questions on the way back home about his appearance. My friend told me that he needed to be there for closure and that he will be ok...I hope she is right.

Im feeling great, the pounds are falling off and I am loving this. I must admit I have cheated so I definetly need a fill which I have not had yet but I definetly think the fact that I dont eat bagels, butter rolls and a big plates of rice everyday is definetly showing. This food thing is really an addiction, because even if I am not hungry I still want to eat certain things when I see them. But im here ready to fight, One thing I dont think I cant give up is coffee! I tried thinking the decaf but it taste like water, today I filled a cup with half decaf and half caffeinated and it taste pretty good. Does anyone know why they tell you not to drink coffee?
It's been 20 days...

My largest incision seems to be getting infected, It hurts a little and it's pretty red around it 
I called my Dr. office and they called in an antibiotic for me to take for a week, other than that and the fact that I was down on myself for not losing anything this last 2 weeks I'm doing good. This is gonna sound soooo grouse 
sorry guys...but I'm tired of farting! LOL I've been farting and farting since the surgery.
It's so embarrassing cause I always have to find somewhere to run to when I feel my stomach rumbling
I swear I've been wanting to post this for a while and felt kind of embarrassed 
And they are the worse smelling ones too. My husband joking told me he was going to go sleep in the basement the other day 
I keep yelling(while laughing) IT AINT MY FAULT! I'M SORRY. Hopefully this wont last too much longer, I'm already on day 20 and I walk everyday( so all that gas should be out, if that is what it is) 
10 more days before I can pick up my baby, she's 2 and I feel so bad when she lifts her arms and wants me to pick her up 
She use to love falling asleep laying on my stomach too and she hasn't been able to do that.

I know you guys are probably going to get on my case about beeing down on my self but I cant help how I feel.
I know you loose weight much slower with lap band surgery but gosh I feel like Im stuck. I mean I lost 17 pounds the first week and a half but since then nothing. Im doing everything im suppose to do and feel like im getting no where.
Hopefully I'll come out of this slump soon.
