No restriction!

I'm struggling with the fact that I have not felt any restriction or full feelings since I've had the surgery!! I feel satisfied with the food mentally but I want to feel my band working!! I just started with mushy and solid foods this weekend and they are going thru just fine... I know my doctor won't do a fill for 6 weeks and I'm only 2 weeks into this...so I could put on everything I've lost in the next 4 weeks..I'm doing myself to count calories and not go crazy but portion control is my problem!! I'm really down about it and cant stop worrying!

New Year New Me!

This is my first time to ever write a blog but I wanted to share my point of view about my Lapband in some form. I had my surgery January 26, 2009 and I have not been in any pain at all..which shocks me! I was worried about how much it would hurt. The only annoying part is that my stomach growls about 75% of the time! I started at 256 (after my preop diet) and within a week I'm down to 247! I've struggled with my weight all my life and knew I had to have this surgery so I could enjoy my life and be happier! I'm only 23 and felt like I was in my late 30s. I love my life but I just didn't love me. I can't wait to go into a normal store and buy clothes not just go with friends and look at accessories!!! Not look around the room to see if I'm the biggest person. Not worry about eating in front of people b/c I fear they will judge me! I can't wait to love to see myself in pictures..and many more can't waits!!!

Sick of sweet!!

Today I'm getting soo tired of everything I have being sweet or void of flavor! Juice, chocolate protein shakes, and broth are what I've been living on and it is getting frustrating..I just want something spicy or homey tasting...but its just a bad day and I will get over it..and a year from now I will be happier than ever before for losing the weight...down one more pound this morning!! Yah!!

Happy with weight loss but wanting more and more!!

Hey all! It has been forever since I have posted anything. The band is working slowly but surely. I have lost about 15lbs since my fill so Im down about 31 all together. I've been losing about 2lbs a week. I weigh myself every morning and write it on a calendar so if my weight is up a lil one day I know I better watch what I'm eating. Lately I have felt more hungry and like I can eat more when things go down ok. But at lunch I seem to have the most problems especially because I dont take my time but have a new puppy and I have to deal with him..I went to my first support group tonight and it seemed like we did was talk about was food... The whole time I was thinking we are all a bunch of people addicted to food and even though we cant eat as much we talk about it to make up for it... kind of mean sounding but I wish I could beat the mental addiction part..oh well it will happen... Hope everyone is doing well!
