3rd Fill
Oct 06, 2008
I finally got another fill. It was .7cc. I counldn't swallow very well so she took out .1cc. That is a total of 3.6 cc in a 4 cc band. I think I may be a little to tight. I got the fill 9-15-08. It has been almost a month so I'm sure it has settled. I have started to loose again. Which is great so I'm not complaining a all.
Changed my mind and got another fill, May, 10th.

I LOST 2 MORE POUNDS!
May 02, 2008
I am feeling good. I was going to get a fill next Saturday but I am losing pretty steady so I think I will wait and save the money. I lost another 2 pounds. Unless it starts coming back. Sometimes I'll loss 2 or 4 and then it comes back. I hate that. I am so encouraged by every pound I loose. Yeah for 32 pounds gone forever!
I've lost 30 pounds!

I had my 1st fill on April 12th. I didn't feel a thing. The Doctor was great. I still don't really feel restricted. She said it may take a few fills. I guess I do have restriction because I don't eat like I used too. Used to I didn't even think about it until I was miserable. Now I never go that far, I just stop eating and I'm not hungery but I'm not full either. I started low carb this week and I finally lost 4 pounds. I'm am so happy. I was really getting down. I'm back to being a loser! It feels GREAT!
Happy Birthday To Me!

My phone has been out for 11 days. They came out and fixed it today. Thank goodness. I have been sooo bored. Well I am dowm 22 pounds. It was 23 but I went back up. I need to quit weighting every day. I am doing great. I have not gone back to work yet. I am not quite ready yet. I still have some pain when bending and stooping over and lifting. I am still on liquids until Friday. Then It will be mushy food. Can't wait. I went to the zoo Saturday. It made me so tired. Everything was up hill. But I really got some walking done.
It's finally over.

I had my surgery Friday. Everything went well. I did have a hienal hernia but the doctor fixed it during surgery. The trip went good. The weather was great. The hotel was great. The doctor was the best. The hospital a little old, but it was clean. The whole staff was very helpful and very nice. We arrived on Thursday, had surgery on Friday. I was up and walking by that evening. We left the hospital by 9:00am Saturday and was home by 6:00 pm Saturday night. It was an 8 hour drive. I am so glad it is over. I still am on liquids for two more weeks. Doctors orders. I can survive it. I do get to eat soup strained next week. Yeah! I have no nausia, so far. I am still taking pain meds. and Antibiotics, hey its only Sunday. I did go to Wal-Mart and shop and walk today.
The week of my surgery.
Mar 01, 2008
It's Sunday, the week of my surgery. I leave for Mexico on Thursday. I have surgery on Friday. I am 11 pounds down from the first day of pre op diet. I am so excited and a little nervous. I have a busy week so I packed my bags yesterday. We will leave at about 6:00 am on Thursday. We have about a nine hour drive. I will be traveling with a freind. My husband will be staying home to work and watch kids. I will miss them. I am not used to being away from them at all.
2-22-08 started liquids
Feb 29, 2008
I did it. Today is my 9th day on liquids. I have lost 10 lbs. Yeah! It is not as hard as I thought it would be. I have my moments and then they pass. I'm still cooking for my family. I go to the grocery store and buy more. I guess it's because I'm hungry. The first day was hard. I felt kind of sick. But the next day I woke up cooked a big breakfeast for everyone and I wasn't hungry until about 10:30. I get sick of the sweet stuff all the time. V8 hot and spicey is great. As long as slim fast is cold I can stand it. The s/f carnation breakfeast is great. I've got in about 6 days of walking. Just 30 to 40 minutes or so. I feel better than I have in a long time. I was having acid reflux so bad before. It was keeping me up all night. Now it is completely gone. I am drinking as much water as I can. Crystal light is great. I wish I could lose 10 more lbs. before surgery. But I also wish I could have one last really good meal. Bad habits are hard to lose. I want to lose the 10 lbs. more than I want the good meal.

The doctor got my deposit last week and I got my paper work in the mail. Friday I start my two weeks of pre op liquids. I have had a few last meals, that I think I will miss the most. But I am just so ready to get this thing started. My doctor is requiring me to do 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after of liquids, it will be hard but I can do it. My family thinks that they will suffer more than me. I sure wish they would support me more. I am pretty much in this by my self. They don't even like me to talk about it. I guess I have burned them out on it. It will all be worth it in the end.
