Fills, Eating Out...Rants of Frustration
Hello All...Brief history on me. Banded on 3/30/09. I've lost 38 lbs so far. I've had 2 fills (up to 6.5 cc). I've noticed that a fill only works for me about 3 weeks, then the "I can eat anything" comes back. My doc scheduled me for another fill on 8/12 but I just changed it to next week. WishI could reach the elusive "sweet spot."
I am struggling with eating out. Before surgery, I would eat lunch out every day. Now, I might eat out once every two weeks for lunch (today for instance). Just so frustrating. No restriction at all. I ate too much food. Makes me feel like a failure. No control on my part. The guilt is overwhelming at times.
I feel like the weight loss is a little slow, but I am happy that I am losing. Just wanted it faster! ha! On the positive, my exercise is awesome. I never was into exercise. Now, I actually miss it if I don't walk, lift weights, swim or something. That's a hugh change in my life.
The last week of July we are going to Florida, and I am so worried that I won't stick to the "rules." I do good (most of the time) when I am working because its a structured day.
Well, enough of the pity party. It is so encouraging though each day to see so many successes. It truly gets me going each day!
Thanks for listening!
