3/23/07 Well, I am down to 227 now and have been for awhile. Really loved the 3rd fill, it has done the trick. I am learning to let the band work and stop eating when it tells me to, It is a hard lesson. I still buy food sometimes like I used to, the old eyes are definnitely bigger than my stomach now. I am debating on the 4th fill next week. I have postponed it for 2 weeks and I may again. I still feel restriciton so I hate to waste the $200. When I think I will get one, then I get something stuck or it takes 20 minutes to eat cereal. Actually have had to buy a few new slacks since people have complained about my baggy clothes. They have been tight for so many years, I have enjoyed the baggy feeling.
6/4/07 Down to 218 and enjoying the journey. Going on a Mediterrainan cruise the 11th and didn't get the scheduled fill. I am still restricted and as Chelle put it, "This is a journey and not a race. Enjoy the cruise and then get another fill when you get back." This makes 98 pounds gone after my 4th fill. That is the total from my highest. Yippie. 18 pounds to Onederland.
