I'm ready to be at my sweet spot.....
I had my filled yesterday. I think it was my 7th or 8th filled. Oct. 29, 2009 my birthday I will be banded for 1 yr.
Seem like my LAP-BAND® is different from others a little. After people get there second filled and most times there first, they get full quicker and eat less. Me on the other hand I have still been able to eat a nice size portion meal. Granted it is less than what I normally eat. Also I see a lot of people can't eat bread, pasta, rice, hamburgers & etc. I still can eat those things as long as I chew, chew, chew. Sometimes I wonder if there is anything wrong with my band....:scared2:but on some days where I am tight then I realize there isn't.:smile:
When I had my fill the nurse normally tells me how much she puts in my band. But I guess since she sees that I always ask she didn't tell me. (She notice I am getting a little impatience with my band) I have a 14 cc band and I know I have about 8.5 or 9.0 cc's. Reading about other people expierence after there second fill they are tight and they get full quick. This mornining I ate grits and eggs. It went down fine. It did tend to slow down a little but I was able to eat it.

I'm not complaining....I have lost about 53 lbs. I weigh 175 and my goal is 150. And now I am trying to get my stomach flat. When I use to weigh 229 it looked like I was about five or six months pregnant.:biggrin: Now it only looks like I am about three.:laugh:
My focus is my abs....I have been doing a lot of situps and different ab workouts. I am going to start back doing some really good cardio.
I am hoping this will be my sweet spot that I hear so many people talking about. Once I thought I was a my sweet spot a few fills ago but it didn't last. I am hoping this is it. I am not far away from having my band filled to the rim:crying:
