As soon as I come home from Alaska I'm going to get a fill. I have the hardest time getting down food that is good for you. M&Ms and junk go down good. I need to learn to just say no. I have the hardest time still learning  and reminding my self to eat and drink slow. My DH is always saying slow down.

I went back to the MD today I had lost 12lbs. He was happy and so I did not get another fill. He said come back in 2 months. I'm happy for the 12lbs. , but i know i can do better and cut out more junk.

I 'm up to 7cc and think I'm getting real close to my sweet spot. I have been eatong my 4oz. at least 2 times a day. I think I may need 1 more cc.  have also learned how to slow down and drink. I still have to tell my self to chew and slow down. My best friend is down 113 lbs. in 2 years. She looks great I can not wait til it's me.

I have been so depressed since my fill and weigh in. I got home after my 3cc fill and I feel little restriction. I'm still hunger and I'm eating way to much. I called and talked to Dr. Ringold's nurse. I explained how the other girl made me chug water and that is why I trew up. I can chug water all day now. I have to go back Monday for another fill. I just feel I a failure and that I have wasted a lot of time and money. I know it takes a while to find that right fill level. My best friend it took about 9 months to find it. I talked with her about the whole 4 ounces at a time. (We are both rns) She laughed and said not to listen to that. She says she eats about once a day. Her surgery was 2 years ago she has lost 110lbs with out problems. I have learned on thing since my fill no bread, ( but was not eating any), and no peanutbutter crackers.

I had my first fill today. He placed 5cc and I could not get water down. He then took out 2cc. I was so glad to get a fill. I had gainrd weight and was so upset about that. I will just have to start being stricter on my diet and exercise.

Well I'm back at Curves I have been 3 times this week . I 'm so proud I have done it. I plan on going back to Snap Fittness next week too. I get my fill on Monday and can not wait.

I can not wait for my fill. I have to wait 2 more weeks. I know I'm eating to much. Today I had a small amount of nachos and cheese, popcorn light butter and 5 chocolate peanuts. I can not wait for a fill. A BIG FILL!!!!!!

Well I had my first eposide of feeling stuck I ate two bites of cantloupe and I could not get it down. I know I should have stayed on puree foods longer. It scared me to death. I threw up the cantloupe and now I scaared I did something to my band. I feel like I'm eating way to much. I plan on bloging all may intake starting tommorrow. I just pray I do not gain weight before my fill. 

Well I lived through surgery. I woke up in recovery and did my walk. I got nausated but that went away and have not been nausated again. I found I had 7 new sites. The md told my DH I had a big liver. I finally got to a room and had ice oh wonderful ice. I thought that was the best thing ever. I slept on and off.(mostly off) I was told I had to have another upper GI. This was great fun. It hurt like HELL turning from side to side. They finally said it was ok and if I kept down jello and a popcicle I could go home. I finally got home about 2pm. My first stop the shower. I wanted all the germs off me. Since then I have rested, walked, followed my diet and walked. I had my 2 week check up and had lost 25 pounds. I'm very happy but hope I do not gain it back before my first fill. (april 28).

Well tommorrow is the big day. I'm so excited. I'm in love with sf popcicles. I have had the worst headache I guess it is because of not eating much. I have to be at the hospital at 0500. Not long now.
